Property Consultant

Ellis Real Estate Portugal is a property consultancy service based in Portugal. It is the vision of Property Consultant Ellis Reichgelt to offer a realtor service to both vendors and purchasers alike.

Buying or selling a property in a foreign country is a big adventure and is about getting the right information and guidance from someone you trust. Here at Ellis Real Estate Portugal only deal with people I trust because I care about my clients and I want them to have the best possible honest advice. I want to be their guide to finding the best possible property or buyer to match their requirements and use my knowledge of the area to get all the elements right. It is a big deal buying or selling in a foreign country and you need someone to be with you through the whole process and afterwards…I would like to be that someone!

He quickly noted that due to the current investments by the city council Oporto but also by private investors the historical city changes in a positive way very quickly. The city of Oporto, built along the hillsides overlooking the Douro River, is an urban landscape with a 2,000-year history. This old and beautiful city has been chosen to be part of the World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1996.
