Seven Quintas

Experts in luxury real estate in the Algarve, Seven Quintas takes its name from the Portuguese idiom ‘estar nas suas sete quintas’, which very roughly translates to ‘be in your seventh heaven’. 

The idea of being in a state of complete happiness is the goal we have for our clients. And the Portuguese saying, harking back to the times when the king of Portugal and his entourage felt their happiest when spending weekends in seven ‘quintas’ in Seixal, just outside Lisbon, perfectly reinforces this concept of finding our clients a new home where they can feel complete fulfilment.

Whether you’re looking to sell your property or on a quest to find a luxury property in the Algarve, let us bring you to your ‘Seven Quintas’ and a state of perfect contentment.

Property for Sale

Created in 2007, Seven Quintas has many years of commercial and real estate experience in the Algarve means having a great knowledge of the tourist and property market. This includes knowing the right people and the right channels: real estate colleagues, project investors, architects, engineers, lawyers, councils and media. Essential knowledge needed to sell your property swiftly and for a good price.

Property Search

Our expertise and strength is finding the right property for you in the Algarve, even if that property is not currently on our books. That is why we put “property search” explicitly in our name. It is always very rewarding to match a property with a client. So it is very important to have a good understanding of what you are looking for. And by property, we mean a well built and properly registered property in a good location, be it a holiday home, a permanent residence and/or an investment property.
