Buy-Side Property Representation · Algarve & Sotogrande
We work in the market you can’t see.
Acting solely for buyers, with over two decades of access in the Algarve and Sotogrande — much of it off-market — all working in your interests. Never instructed by the selling side. Never incentivised to favour one property over another.
Independence, defined
No one on the selling side works for you.
Selling agents are paid by the vendor. Developer sales teams are employed by the developer. Introducers earn referral fees. Everyone on the selling side has a financial interest that is not yours.
SotoAlgarve is engaged by the buyer and answers to the buyer alone. Our sole obligation — contractual and professional — is to the person who has engaged us. That is what genuine independence means.
What We Do
Three disciplines. One purpose.
The People Behind the Practice
Personally led. Never alone.
Across his career, Ashley has worked alongside the lawyers, tax advisers, surveyors, architects, project managers and currency specialists of both markets — and kept a short list of the ones he would use himself. Every name on it is tried and tested, across years of real transactions; the hard work of finding the right people has already been done for you. When you engage us, every one of them is in your corner too.
The practice is personally led by its founder. Meet Ashley →
