I am Francis Viegas, a verified real estate agent with eXp Portugal, dedicated to helping people navigate Lisbon's property market with the depth of experience I’ve built over +30 years across Portugal, Canada, Brazil, the Cape Verde Islands, and France. My journey wasn’t just about transactions; it was about understanding how different cultures approach homeownership, rentals, and investment. This global perspective is why International Clients-whether relocating for work, seeking a second home, or exploring Lisbon’s rental potential-trust me to bridge communication gaps and cultural nuances seamlessly in English, French, or Portuguese.

My focus is intensely practical: I help international clients cut through bureaucracy and find properties that genuinely fit their lifestyle, whether it’s a central apartamento for urban living or a quieter moradia near the river. For Rental Properties, I guide both landlords and tenants through Lisbon’s evolving regulations, ensuring leases are clear and transparent-like explaining the depósito caução (security deposit) rules upfront to avoid misunderstandings. I’ve seen Lisbon’s neighborhoods transform over decades, so I can pinpoint areas matching your needs, from Alfama’s charm to Parque das Nações’ modernity, without overpromising.

I dedicate myself to providing excellent service by treating every client interaction as a priority, whether you’re finalizing paperwork or have a last-minute question at 8 PM. My role isn’t just about closing deals; it’s about empowering you with honest insights-like how rendas antigas (older rent-controlled leases) impact certain historic buildings-so you make informed decisions. At eXp Portugal, I also support my team to maintain this standard, because great service starts with collaboration.
