Why you should choose Ola Estate?
On your own
Location uncertainty
Without living in the country first, it's challenging to determine which area matches your needs best
Language barriers
Many agents and property owners prefer to communicate in Portuguese, making it difficult for non-native speakers
Property valuation challenges
It's difficult to assess a property's investment potential, market value, or identify potential hidden issues independently
Inspection oversight
Important details like mold issues, waste management schedules, and the presence of short-term rentals in the building are easy to miss
Legal complexities
You must navigate property-related legal requirements alone, including taxes, registrations, and property records
Administrative hurdles
You'll need to handle utility contracts and residence registration procedures by yourself
