I've been working with Ricardo for about four years now, ever since I dived into real estate. As my lawyer, he's been incredibly helpful. I managed to buy four properties with his guidance, and even when there was an issue with one property that caused damage to a neighbor, Ricardo handled the situation smoothly. His English is perfect, which has been a huge plus for me. Not only is he professional and always available when I need him, but he's also assisting my partner and baby in applying for residency in Portugal through family reunification. I haven't faced problems working with him. I highly recommend his services!

I moved to Cascais a year ago and was completely overwhelmed with the house buying process. Raquel Joao Branquinho Nunes Garcia from Lighthouse Consulting Lda was a lifesaver. She responded within minutes of my initial contact, and her responsiveness never waned. Raquel not only helped me save money by tweaking the contract, but she also made sure I wasn't at risk with any of the clauses—I felt completely safe in her hands. Over this past year, she's been invaluable, assisting me with more than just the house purchase. Having moved seven times and dealt with numerous lawyers before, I can say without a doubt that Raquel is the best; she truly goes beyond the call of duty. I trust her implicitly and have recommended her services to many others because of her exceptional work ethic and support.

I had a great experience working with Raquel Joao Branquinho Nunes Garcia from Lighthouse Consulting Lda while searching for a home. The contract and fee structure she presented were clear from the start, making the process straightforward and stress-free. She was always available to help, and any small issues that came up were handled effectively. Raquel was very proactive in explaining every step of the process, ensuring I understood what was happening and what to expect next. She went above and beyond by getting additional videos and pictures of properties, which really helped me make informed decisions. Communication with her was excellent; she's not only efficient but also a very nice person to work with. I'd definitely recommend her services to anyone looking for assistance in finding a home.

A couple of months ago, Nuno helped us with the registration of apartments that we sold. Throughout the process, I felt well accompanied; he was very attentive and always available when needed. His execution in handling the paperwork and formalities was great. Definitely recommend his services for anyone needing property registrations done efficiently.

I've been working with Raquel from Lighthouse Consulting Lda for the past two months to find and purchase a house. She's been incredibly helpful, navigating legal matters, valuations, and even connecting me with financial brokers for my mortgage. Raquel is always available to provide friendly and proactive advice; she's super professional and knows her stuff. Despite a few hiccups along the way—none of which were her fault—she's been consistently punctual. Raquel went above and beyond by handling some tricky documentation I needed as a foreigner buying property here. Her English is excellent; she was able to translate technical terms that were only available in Portuguese, which was a huge help. I really appreciate the personalized touch she brought to our interactions—she made it feel less like a cold business deal and more like someone genuinely looking out for us. She even gave my daughter a gift! Overall, working with Raquel has been fantastic—a very positive experience that stood out from others in the field.

I've been working with Nuno for about 4-5 years now, he has been handling all the legal aspects of my real estate business. We deal with both rentals and sales of properties. Nuno is not only very good at what he does but also a genuinely nice person. He is responsive, he listens, and he is easy to reach. Overall, I highly recommend Nuno for anyone in need of legal support in real estate transactions; he's a very good professional.

Why we created Locallista?

As expats, we understand how overwhelming it can be to settle into a new city, where even simple tasks become difficult without a network, complicated by language barriers and cultural differences. That’s why we created Locallista — a closed platform where expats connect with trusted service providers recommended by the community, ensuring clear communication in English or their native languages, making life easier.
