Living in Madeira Portugal- Some Testimonials


                                         

 

We intended living in Madeira island and excluded the idea of buying off-plan in Madeira due to the high risks involved.  Having opted to buy a resale property on the island, we decided to work with Tony de Nobrega as he was licenced and could communicate fluently in both Portuguese and English.  99% of the resale properties on the island belong to Portuguese owners.  We found out quickly that we had the need to work with somebody who could understand the seller’s motivation for selling. Tony’s transparent style of negotiating helped us to achieve purchasing our dream villa in Madeira to escape the very cold and dark winters back home in Scotland. We recommend his first class service and high level expertise and practical advice to anyone.

We decided to buy a second home in Madeira island, after researching the Internet we contacted Tony de Nobrega as he is a licensed Estate Agent, with a good selection of properties.   An added advantage is that Tony speaks both Portuguese and English fluently and understands the culture, this is especially important if you do not speak Portuguese.  After discussing our requirements with Tony, near the sea in a fishing village on the West Coast.  He identified a possible property 30 metres from the sea, that he was due to see and be placed on the market with him as sole agent.  We knew the village “Paul do Mar” and asked him to arrange an appointment as soon as possible.

The visit was a success and with Tony’s help and support, chasing up outstanding paperwork, translating between the vendor, our solicitor, and ourselves we placed an offer for the property in October and completed the sale in December just before Christmas.  We have no hesitation in recommending Tony; he maintained excellent communication with us via email/phone during the whole buying process and afterwards to ensure that everything ran quickly and smoothly.  We love our new second home, it is exactly what we wanted and have no doubts that should we be seeking another property with a view to living in Madeira, Portugal on a more permanent basis, the first person we would contact will be Tony de Nobrega.  He is very experienced and professional and delivers an excellent customer experience.

For two years, my wife and I had been toying with the idea of living in Madeira, Portugal.  Eventually we did and are now happily ensconced in our new house in Funchal with a wonderful view of its famous harbour.  For this, we have to thank Tony de Nobrega who tirelessly and patiently guided us through the maze of house purchasing on this wonderful island.  Tony’s efforts did not stop at the usual Estate Agent services – he went out of his way to ensure that we had the proper advice regarding Painters, Decorators, Builders and Technical Services.  Best of all and a novelty for us UK expats; he didn’t mind answering seemingly silly questions or giving up his quality time at weekends or on his days off.  No, he’s not a saint, but he does know his business and we are thankful for his invaluable assistance and after service.  Well done Tony.

I have known Tony for many years back in South Africa.  I gave Tony a sole mandate to market my second home in Madeira island.  Within 2 weeks he found a qualified buyer.  I recommend his services to anyone looking for professionalism, honesty and transparency in this business.  Madeira has acquired a top professional and I wish him all of the very best!.

Tony was recommended to me by a friend in Madeira as the ideal person to market my second home in Madeira .  I know that anybody who makes it in the industry in South Africa will make it anywhere in the world!  Within 2 months he came up with a willing and able buyer from Sweden.  His ability to negotiate across the ocean miles and his communication skills in managing the different cultural needs, resulted into a very smooth sale.  I recommend Tony’s professionalism to anybody who is planning on living in Madeira and wish him success in the future.

Tive a minha propriedade no Mercado 3 anos.  Durante este periodo entreguei a varios agentes sem resultados.  O Sr. Nobrega foi recomendado pelo um amigo e foi realmente a pessoa que teve a capacidade e visão assim como experiencia de gerir a minha situação. Em 120 dias apresentou-me com um comprador ideal para a minha propriedade!  Resultado – este Sr vê-se que teve formação em criar situações “win-win” !.

We chose to work with Nobrega Realty as they are licensed, fluent in both English and Portuguese and have a proven track record of success in the industry.  Tony was invaluable in his support and guidance as to our choosing the appropriate location for buying our second home in Madeira.  We are now proud owners of a lovely townhouse in Tabua and looking forward to our returning to the island – away from the UK’s cold and dismal winters.  We are excited about learning the new culture on the island and all the local events and festivities held throughout the year!.

Tony proved to be honest, straightforward and found us our second home within a short time scale.  We have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone wishing to buy with the intention to living in Madeira Portugal.
