Pedro Monteiro
Realtor - Algarve
Background
At 52 years old, I bring a diverse background shaped by a variety of experiences. My education in languages has been a strong foundation throughout my career. I began working alongside my father in his architecture atelier, where I gained invaluable insights into design, planning, and the intricacies of the architectural world.
Over the years, I've also spent significant time in the tourism sector, where I held both commercial and administrative roles in several resorts. This experience allowed me to hone my skills in customer service, operations, and management. Additionally, I managed two restaurants, overseeing not only the culinary aspects but also the entertainment, ensuring guests had a memorable experience.
In addition to these roles, I’ve worked extensively in commercial and marketing positions, where I developed strategies to promote services and products effectively, driving growth and enhancing brand visibility.
For the past seven years, I've been dedicated to the real estate industry, where I’ve applied my extensive knowledge of architecture, hospitality, management, and marketing. This combination of skills has enabled me to provide exceptional service to clients, whether they’re looking for their dream home or making strategic investments. My journey has been varied, but each experience has equipped me with a unique perspective and a broad set of skills that I bring to every project I undertake.
What do you like most about Portugal?
After living in France and the Costa del Sol in Spain, I decided to return to Portugal, the place that truly feels like home.
The blend of old-world charm and modern vibrancy here is unmatched. From the golden beaches of the Algarve to the lush Douro Valley, Portugal’s landscapes never cease to amaze me. What I appreciate most is the mild climate, with sunny days almost year-round, perfect for outdoor adventures or simply relaxing by the sea. Lisbon and Porto offer a vibrant mix of tradition and excitement.
I’ve rediscovered my love for delicious cuisine. The wine is a treat I always look forward to. And the warm, welcoming nature of the Portuguese people makes every experience even more special.
After experiencing life in other countries, Portugal’s safety and serene beauty drew me back. It’s more than just a destination; it’s a place where I truly belong.
Why do you like working for Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Portugal Property?
I chose to join Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Portugal Property because of its unmatched standing as a leading real estate company worldwide. The company’s impressive portfolio of high-quality properties provides an ideal platform for me to connect exceptional properties with the right buyers, helping them achieve their real estate goals.
What do you like to do when you are not working?
When I'm not working, I love to ride my motorbike and spend quality time with my kids and friends. I also enjoy kayaking, swimming, and going to the beach.
Listening to good music and cooking for family and friends are some of my favorite ways to relax, and I always enjoy singing with good company. It’s all about enjoying the simple pleasures in life.
