I am Ana Clara Rivera, a verified real estate agent with RE/MAX Siimgroup Miraflores, dedicated to guiding clients through the journey of buying or selling property in Portugal. My focus is deeply rooted in Lisbon and the beautiful coastal town of Cascais, where I help navigate the local market with clarity. As I often say, my core work is to assist in the mediation of the business of buying/selling houses in Portugal, particularly in Lisbon - meaning I act as your trusted partner, ensuring every step from initial viewing to final contract feels transparent and manageable. Whether you're local or new to Portugal, I prioritize clear communication in Portuguese, English, or French to make the process feel personal and stress-free.

My specialization lies in supporting primeira vez compradores (First-Time Buyers), a group I’m passionate about empowering. I understand the unique anxieties and excitement that come with purchasing your first home here - from securing financing options suitable for newcomers to explaining local regulations like the imposto municipal sobre imóveis (real estate tax). In Lisbon’s dynamic neighborhoods and Cascais’ sought-after coastal spots, I focus on finding properties that align with your practical needs and long-term vision, never pushing a sale but building a foundation of trust through honest advice and local insight.

You’ll find my approach centers on listening first. Before discussing listings, I take time to understand your lifestyle, budget realities, and what "home" truly means to you in Portugal. This helps me efficiently match you with opportunities in areas ranging from Lisbon’s historic Alfama to Cascais’ family-friendly suburbs, always respecting the nuances of each transaction. My role isn’t just about closing deals; it’s about ensuring you feel informed, confident, and genuinely supported throughout what can be a complex but rewarding process.
