About Ana Alvim
I am Ana Alvim, a verified real estate agent with CENTURY 21 Colombo II, deeply rooted in the Odivelas community. As a 40-year-old mother of two, my life has always centered on connecting with people and finding genuine solutions - that’s why real estate feels like my true calling. I don’t just facilitate transactions; I listen carefully to what you truly need in a home, whether it’s the charm of a palacete (historic mansion) in Lisbon’s heart, the tranquility of a quinta (estate) in the countryside, or the sophistication of a modern luxury property. My entire approach is built on unwavering honesty, professionalism, and total dedication to your journey.
You’ll find me specializing in three distinct property types where local insight matters most: Historic Properties (navigating monumento classificado regulations and restoration potential), Rural Properties (from Alentejo farms to mountain retreats), and Luxury Properties (offering discretion and access to high-end listings). Based in Odivelas, I know its family-friendly freguesias (districts) intimately, but my expertise extends across Greater Lisbon and beyond, especially for clients seeking unique heritage homes or serene countryside escapes. Speaking Portuguese, English, and Spanish fluently means we’ll communicate clearly every step of the way, without confusion or compromise.
What drives me isn’t closing deals - it’s the moment you walk into your new home and feel that spark of belonging. I treat every client’s search with the same commitment I’d give finding a home for my own family: meticulous attention to detail, absolute transparency about challenges like licenças (permits) for historic renovations, and relentless follow-through. When you partner with me, you gain a calm, values-led advocate who prioritizes your peace of mind above all else.
Frequently Asked Questions
FAQ
Why focus on historic properties?
Many clients love Lisbon’s architectural soul but feel overwhelmed by restoration rules or ownership restrictions - I simplify that complexity while respecting the property’s legacy.
Can you help non-Portuguese speakers buy rural land?
Absolutely. My Spanish and English fluency ensures clear communication with sellers, lawyers, and local câmaras (municipal offices), especially outside major cities.
How do you handle the emotional stress of buying?
As a parent, I know this isn’t just a transaction. I prioritize patience and empathy, explaining each step so you feel confident, not pressured.
Count on me to help you find not just a house, but the place where your next chapter truly begins.
