A group of professionals with some 25 years experience of the property and financial sectors in Portugal, backed by retained lawyers, accountants and property management specialists.
During the Golden Years of Portuguese property, the Hartley’s professionals developed a keen sense of the protection which international and indeed inexperienced domestic investors required. The unscrupulous nature of real estate agents and associated legal firms led to a lot of investors buying overpriced property under less than perfect conditions.
Even for the few honest organisations the end goal is merely the sale of a property and not the satisfaction of the buyer for the years of ownership post transaction. Hartley’s is a consultancy service to guide investors through the legal and procedural intricacies of selecting, acquiring and managing property to ensure a hassle free and positive experience.
Investors are often not fully aware of Portuguese property prices and the various potential pitfalls when selecting a suitable area for investment. Our focus is to assist in sourcing and selecting those investment opportunities that not only meet the investor`s personal objectives but to ensure that the investment works financially and that we are building long term relationships that are based on professionalism, trust and integrity.
As such, Hartley’s have been able to structure beneficial and unique investment options unlike any others seen in Portugal built specifically for clients requiring residency or improved tax status. The expertise at Hartley’s means that all critical areas of the process are covered ranging from fiscal planning, procedural aspects, finance options and of course overall appropriate investment conditions and ongoing management and assistance thereafter.
