01 — Loyalty
I act for you, and only you.
One client in the room. You.
Portuguese real estate without the exposure that catches foreign buyers.
A Lisbon lawyer for international investors and families buying, owning and monetizing real estate in Portugal.
From your first question to clean title and steady ownership — structured properly and closed without friction.
01
Real Estate & Planning
Buying, structuring, financing, leasing and selling property — residential, hospitality, tourism and commercial. Diligence, the holding structure, the contract and the registry.
02
Corporate & M&A
Company incorporation, shareholder arrangements, M&A and restructuring — built around the deal, so the entity that holds your property is set up correctly from day one.
01 — About
Pedro Caçador Faria
Lawyer
Real Estate & Corporate
A lawyer in Lisbon with over five years advising on real estate and corporate transactions in Portugal — for international and domestic clients buying, structuring, financing and selling property. The work spans residential, hospitality, tourism and commercial assets, and the companies built to hold them.
One file, one point of contact. The same lawyer who takes your first message handles the transaction through to registration. Working languages: English and Portuguese.
02 — How I work
Four commitments.
The ones that matter.
The risk is rarely the building — it is the title that looks clean and isn't, the licence that limits what the asset can become, the tax fixed by how you buy. Removing that exposure is the work.
02 — Accountability
One lawyer responsible.
No handovers, no file passed between departments.
One person answers for the whole transaction.
03 — Transparency
You always know where you stand.
No silence, no surprises.
Each process and decision duly explained.
04 — Speed
Time = Money
No lost in delay.
03 — What you get
Not a list of services.
A position that holds.
Acquisition, structured and closed.
Due Diligence that finds what matters. A holding structure decided before you commit. The transaction taken cleanly through negotiation, closing and registry — without you chasing anyone.
Ownership that holds up.
Title, tax position and structure built to survive scrutiny — from the authorities, from a future buyer and from your own succession.
Assets you can monetize.
Lease and tourism structures set up to generate yield — short-term rental licences, hotel and aparthotel frameworks, retail and hospitality leases, nursing and student housing. Compliance and upside, designed together.
A position you can leave.
Every structure built with the eventual sale, refinancing or inheritance already in view.
04 — Who I work with
International investors who want one lawyer responsible, end to end.
Investors, families, developers and builders committing seriously to Portuguese real estate.
From Europe, the US, Brazil, Russia, the Gulf, India, Israel and beyond — wherever the capital comes from.
People who value judgement over volume, who would rather hold a single trusted line into the market and who appreciate speed and value time.
Don't hesitate to contact me — if I'm not the right person to help, I'll point you to someone who is.

A property under consideration, a structure question, a transaction already in motion — write what you have and what you need to know first.
