My experience with David and Athena Advisers

My experience with David and Athena Advisers has been bar none. They have been with me and my family every step of the way as we've been navigating the complicated process of the pathway to Portugal's Golden Visa. They are also well connected and have been amazing with connecting us to the right people when needed. I highly recommend Athena for anyone who is interested in investing / laying down roots / exploring the Golden Visa process in Portugal.

Very professional

The agents I worked with were very thorough and made themselves available whenever I needed to speak with them. They put me in touch with excellent lawyers, interior designer and property managers. This made conducting a purchase from overseas (in English) much easier than expected

Athena Advisors

Athena Advisors, and our main contact Niamh Erbek, are wonderful! She is experienced, professional, friendly and an excellent communicator. Niamh has walked us through the entire Portugal Golden Visa process explaining every step and answering all our questions with emails, webinars, texts, and in person meetings. I highly recommend her and her legal colleagues!

Professional, efficient and friendly agents

Our two Athena representatives, Niamh and Pauline, were extremely professional and responsive. They understood our needs and prepared a thoughtful list of properties to visit. Once in Lisbon, Pauline showed us various neighborhoods, which helped us refine our search and focus on what would best suit our needs.

Portuguese dream come true

David Moura George and Athena Advisers came highly recommended to us as we started our search for property in Portugal.
David's out-of-the-box thinking, creative problem solving and steady hand led us to the perfect property. He guided us through the process with great expertise, local knowledge and timely responsiveness. Suffice it to say that he made our Portuguese dream come true!

5* experience and support :)

My partner and I can not fault the experience we have had working with Athena Advisers. This is the first property we have bought in Portugal, and the team at Athena have supported us every step of the way. I would highly recommend and would use Athena again. Thank you!

I am delighted to share my exceptional experience with Athena Advisors in Lisbon. Their invaluable assistance and expertise throughout the Golden Visa process, specifically with commercial investment, have pleased and satisfied us.

When we approached Athena Advisors, their response was prompt and efficient. Their team of professionals demonstrated an impressive depth of knowledge in the Golden Visa program and the intricacies involved in the commercial investment route. We were thoroughly impressed by their understanding of the legal and financial aspects, which put us at ease during what could have otherwise been a daunting process.

What truly sets Athena Advisors apart is their commitment to providing diverse investment opportunities. They took the time to understand our unique needs and preferences, presenting us with various well-researched options that perfectly aligned with our investment goals. This level of personalization and attention to detail was both refreshing and reassuring.

Throughout our interactions with the team, their professionalism shone brightly. They were always courteous, respectful, and patient, readily addressing our doubts or queries. Their transparent communication style ensured we were kept informed at every step, and they were always available to guide us through the entire process.

We obtained our Golden Visa through the commercial investment route thanks to Athena Advisors' relentless dedication and support. Their guidance streamlined the procedure and made us confident that we were making the right choices.

In conclusion, we couldn't be happier with our decision to work with Athena Advisors. Their comprehensive expertise, professionalism, and the range of investments they offered made the entire experience smooth and stress-free. If you're seeking assistance with the Golden Visa process or any investment endeavors in Lisbon, I wholeheartedly recommend Athena Advisors – a team that truly goes above and beyond to ensure your success.

Niamh at Athena Advisers

I worked with Niamh at Athena Advisers and I couldn't have picked a better person to help guide me through the new territory of buying property abroad. She was dependable and very responsive even with the tough time difference. She answered all my questions every step of the way and I am now a proud property owner in Lisbon. I highly recommend using Athena Advisors + Niamh for future property investments.

Great advice and support from Athena Adviser

Great job and help from Athena Adviser and Niam. First we were warned that the Golden Visa is still in place , then the suggestions for investment in various properties selected by Athena Adviser were excellent. Finally all along the process we got the support needed to achieve the transaction in record time. Athena also helped with the lawyer and the bank. Top job!

Wonderful Experience with Athena Advisers

I purchased my apartment in Lisbon through Athena Advisers and Athena Advisers has been managing the long-term rental agreement of my property nicely. Marta and her team were very helpful not only in identifying good tenant, but also in resolving any issues between tenant and myself. During recent check-out inspection, unusual damage was found in the window area. Marta professionally raised the issue to me and tenant. She finally arranged an expert's visit( after many many calls), got a budget quotation and communicated well to both party. In the end, the damage was fixed and all the parties involved were satisfied. I thanks Marta and her team for their prompt, sincere and unbiased attitude.

Best of the best

I found Athena Advisers online when researching for short term rental properties. Marta she showed me a beautiful flat in Chiado April 2021, with all the amenities I wanted in residence. She was very nice, professional, and knowledgeable.

I hear people talking about their challenging experiences here in Lisbon, but I've been grateful not to have that experience with Athena Advisers. When Marta says she'll do something, she gets the job done. I moved into 2 different, modern, and beautiful beautiful short terms in April-June 2021 before I signed on for a long term in September 2021. The process was very easy considering we were negotiating on different time zones and continents.

I highly recommend Athena Advisers to anyone who is looking for beautiful modern properties. They've delivered everything I've required and asked for. If I had to move again, I would want it to be with Athena Advisers. They have great locations and I can rest well knowing it's an honest company.

Really good people!

Really good people!

We originally contacted Athena because we wanted to couple a property purchase in Portugal with a Golden Visa application and had seen their advertisement in the press which seemed to us to offer the client-oriented approach that we wanted, indeed needed, given that we had no clue about how to set about things.

Athena were excellent from the start, keen to understand what it was we wanted and happy to guide us. They knew a lot themselves, especially about property, but when expert professional advice on law or tax were needed they introduced us to equally helpful and charming people with the right knowledge and experience.

We shall happily recommend them to others

Athena are probably the best agency and property firm I've experienced in Portugal. They're miles ahead of the curve and their competitors. Their properties are really nice and never had any problems. Marta who works there is incredibly helpful and knowledgeable and gets it. If you're looking for a rental then you must go with these guys and get Marta to help you.
