Hi 👋🏼
If you’ve just landed in our page, here’s a little bit about us and our work:
My name is João Passos. I'm a Lisbon-based (and born) real estate agent with 17+ years of experience. I'm gay, and I got married last August to my husband Alejandro (I always say it like I’m Lady Gaga ☺️).
You can follow my work at João Passos - JPVA Real Estate Group.
I run JPVA - Real Estate Group, the #1 team in Lisbon for the past two years, affiliated with Keller Williams.
We have over *785 5-⭐️ Google reviews* — the highest of any real estate team or brokerage in the country (by far).
But here's what makes us different from any other agency: LisboaPride - Homes for Everyone, a real estate brand created in 2017 specifically to serve the LGBTQI+ community in Portugal, with empathy and without judgment. This isn't a marketing angle. It's who we are. And it’s not about serving a niche. It’s about serving everyone the same way: with respect, with knowledge, with a true fiduciary responsibility.
Our team of 10 includes 4 amazing allies and 6 proud members of the LGBTQI+ community (1 French - Olivier Serne, 2 Americans - Bill Mauro and Marcus W Laurence, and 3 Portuguese - myself João Passos, César Parreira and Daniel Baptista).
We've helped many expats and immigrants find their home in Portugal, and we speak your language — literally and figuratively.
If you're navigating any of these, we can help:
🏠 Buying, selling or renting a home in Lisbon or beyond (we have listing’s, buyer’s and rental’s specialized agents)
📋 D7 Visa — passive income residency
🏅 Golden Visa — investment residency
💶 NHR (Non-Habitual Resident) tax regime
📊 Portuguese fiscality for foreigners — what to expect, what to plan
🔑 Long-term investment in Portuguese real estate
🏦 Financing and Insurance - mortgage brokers, etc
And a wide range of referral partners, agents or business owners, all over the country and the islands, and even abroad (Europe, USA, Canada, Brasil, Dubai, etc).
Moving country is already a big leap. You shouldn't have to explain your family structure, your relationship, or your life choices to your real estate agent on top of it. With us, you won't.
Feel free to drop a comment, send me a DM, or reach out directly. No pressure, no pitch — just a genuine conversation.
