I am Rita Aragão, a verified real estate agent in Lisbon, Portugal, working with KW Lead Restelo. My mission is simple: to bridge international clients with Lisbon’s vibrant real estate opportunities. Whether you’re exploring a new home, investment, or relocation, I offer guidance in Português, English, and Spanish, ensuring clarity and trust at every step. As a Lisboeta (someone born and raised in Lisbon), I bring local insight to neighborhoods like Alfama, Chiado, and LX Factory, where tradition and modernity intersect.

Golden Visa Properties and Rental Properties are my specializations, two areas where Lisbon’s market thrives. For Golden Visa inquiries, I focus on aligning your investment goals with Portugal’s residency program, navigating legal requirements without overstating returns. Renters and landlords benefit from my hands-on approach-helping families find homes in sought-after districts and advising investors on yield-driven opportunities. My process prioritizes listening first: understanding your needs before proposing solutions.

Clients often ask: “What’s a Golden Visa?” It’s a residency-by-investment program for non-EU citizens, typically involving property purchases above €350,000. “Do I need a local lawyer for a rental contract?” Yes, but I connect you with vetted professionals to simplify the process. “How long does a Golden Visa application take?” Timeline varies, but coordination with immigration lawyers ensures efficiency once the property is secured.

Lisbon’s market is as diverse as its cobblestone streets-historic charm in Estrela, sleek apartments in Parque das Nações, or coastal breezes in Cascais. I help clients weigh these options against their goals, whether securing a pied-à-terre, a vacation rental, or a future-proof investment. Transparency and patience are non-negotiable; I’d rather decline a deal than rush a decision.

It’s a privilege to guide clients through Lisbon’s dynamic real estate landscape, from bustling city centers to tranquil riverfronts. My role isn’t just transactions-it’s explaining cultural nuances, like the espírito de bairro (neighborhood spirit) that shapes communities, or why a t0 apartment (studio) might suit certain budgets. Let’s connect if you’re ready to explore Portugal’s capital with a partner who values integrity over hype.
