If you don’t reside full-time in your Algarve villa or apartment, it’s often sensible to appoint a management company to look after the property. Rates for such services vary, depending on the package you choose.

There are many specialist property management companies in the Algarve, who speak English (indeed many are English-managed) and other languages, and who will take care of all or some of the following on your behalf:

Preparing the House, Supervision & Weekly Visits, Housekeeping, Laundry Service, Control and Payment of bills, Concierge, Pool & Gardening, Key Handling.
