PORTUGAL, THE ALGARVE

A football club owner, his wife and his three children were relocating to the south of Portugal to benefit from an NHR tax regime programme:

  • Small search area with 34 listing agents engaged
  • Plus off-market options
  • 11 villas shortlisted
  • Offer accepted on client’s second-choice property
  • 9.4% saving negotiated 
  • SEB IS A STAR

    Seb is a star, down to earth, personable and extremely professional. He managed a complex acquisition in Monaco for us. The successful outcome is credit to his in depth market knowledge, relentless drive and excellent negotiation skills. An asset to anyone looking to buy in Europe and a friend today.

  • SAVED US €1.3M FROM ASKING PRICE. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

    Galleon and Seb have been recommended to us by our agent. What they managed in a short turnaround is just outstanding. We viewed 16 properties together and fell in love with a few. His expertise in negotiation was also impressive, saving us €1.3M off the asking price. Highly recommend.

  • PROFESSIONAL, ORGANISED, AND DEDICATED

    I have dealt with Sebastien the founder of Galleon on multiple searches and projects. He is professional, organised, dedicated to the highest quality of service. He helped me find, negotiate and conclude the purchase of a fantastic property In London as an investment - I’m very happy with my purchase which would have not been possible without Galleon's help and in depth market search. Overall very pleased.

  • DELIVERS RESULTS

    Seb was highly efficient and extremely disciplined in the performance of his professional duties. His attention to details was second to none and his integrity proves to have been consistently impeccable. Seb is also highly personable with an engaging personality, not to mention the dimensions of his knowledge and command of the market where I invested. He delivered results that had met prescribed objectives imposed by a demanding buyer like myself who happened to be a solicitor.

  • BEST IN CLASS

    I don’t think we would have bought our flat in Paris without Sebastien and his team. They did an amazing work on the search, helped us with the shortlist and then held our hand through the negotiations, and all done with Sebastien's Gallic charm and good humour. What more could we have asked for?

From the Middle East to life in the south of France - there is no doubt that we owe enormous gratitude to Galleon for helping us make our dream a reality.

  • TOOK AWAY MUCH OF THE STRESS

    We were extremely happy with the services of Galleon and hugely appreciated Seb’s knowledge of the areas we were considering. With his European knowledge, he helped us narrow down an initially wide area, and steered us to areas which met our requirements for a property, but also where our investment was safe. I would recommend and in fact urge anybody looking for an overseas property investment to use the services of Galleon. It was absolutely invaluable, and took away much of the stress usually involved in a property purchase.

  • KEY PARTNER WITH OUR FAMILY MOVE

    From New York to London, Seb has been a key partner with our family move. His market expertise and knowledge are outstanding and his advices were on point from day one. He is upfront, managed our expectations, very determined and focused. I would highly recommend him and his team to anyone.

  • I’D HAPPILY WORK WITH GALLEON AGAIN

    The journey with Galleon started with an initial brief of the area in which we were wanting to buy, the type of property and budget. From that point on, we felt very comfortable being led by Seb and his team, from a long list to short list and subsequent viewings in the South of France. He pulled together a team of experts that took away all of the hassle and stress of buying a house so that we could concentrate on what was important to us. I’d happily work with Galleon again and have no hesitation in recommending them.

  • ENJOYABLE AND STRESS-FREE

    Viewing and choosing our property with Sebastien's help was a really enjoyable and stress-free experience, he found us the right property because he took the time to find out exactly what we needed. I have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone.
