Hotel and Investment Broker
Hotel and Investment Broker
Having studied Leisure & Business management at University I set out on my own career path based upon my passion for and hospitality and property development working mostly with international clients.
Specialising in residential developments, hotel brokerage for both sales and acquisitions across the emerging global markets I have most recently focussed on the affluent Portuguese opportunities accumulating a strong network of both investors and vendors, with proven success.
What do you like most about Portugal?
I spent many summers here in the Algarve at my grandparent’s villa in my childhood. I relocated to this beautiful country in 2021 with my young son to rediscover the relaxed lifestyle, the wonderful environments, local people and of course not to mention the fantastic variety of cuisine and wine!
Why do you like working for Berkshire Hathaway?
Berkshire Hathaway Home Services Portugal is a very exciting platform due to our global network which enables myself to introduce new and innovative investment opportunities, both in the hotel investment and residential property development market.
In addition, we are a very united and valued family team which allows us to provide a very personal and versatile approach sourcing the best opportunity in the Portuguese market.
What do I do when I am not working?
Spending time with my little man mostly by exploring the many local attractions, amazing beaches, swimming, yachting and when I have some personal free time, I love watching football and playing golf… badly!
