01 — How we work

A smarter way to buy & sell.

37.8 is a full-service Algarve estate agency. We price properly, market beautifully and qualify carefully — so the right buyer meets the right home, and every transaction closes cleanly.

Location intelligence

Microclimate, infrastructure, planning, flood risk, road noise. The detail behind the postcode.

Smart search

We map your brief against on- and off-market stock from a network we've spent years building.

Market insights

Honest valuations, real comparables, rental yield modelling. No glossy guesses.

Trust & transparency

Clear fees, honest advice, and a single point of contact from listing or first viewing through to keys.

02 — Curated stock

Properties worth seeing.

A selection of our current listings across the Algarve. Every property is independently surveyed, priced against live comparables and prepared for sale with full documentation ready for a serious buyer.

03 — Where to look

Six Algarves. One coast.

The Algarve is not a single market. Microclimate, planning, demographics and demand vary hugely across 150 kilometres. Here is how we frame it.

The Golden Triangle

— 01

Quinta do Lago, Vale do Lobo, Almancil. Mature luxury, gated resorts, the strongest rental floor in Portugal.

Avg €/m²€6,400

Central Coast

— 02

Albufeira to Carvoeiro. Cliffs, coves and the broadest mid-market stock. Liquid resale, high rental velocity.

Avg €/m²€4,800

Western Algarve

— 03

Lagos, Burgau, Salema, Sagres. Wilder, cooler, surf-led. Strong appreciation, tighter planning.

Avg €/m²€4,200

Eastern Algarve

— 04

Tavira, Olhão, Cacela Velha. Authentic Portugal, slower pace, the smart-money entry point of the last decade.

Avg €/m²€3,400

The Barrocal

— 05

Inland hills behind Loulé and Silves. Land, quintas and privacy at a fraction of coastal pricing.

Avg €/m²€2,100

The Serra

— 06

Monchique and Caldeirão highlands. Cooler summers, forested, growing slowly with off-grid and wellness buyers.

Avg €/m²€1,650
04 — Collaboration

One sale. Every door open.

Buying agents are not competitors — they're allies. We co-broke openly with every AMI-licensed buyer's agent on the Algarve, because the only outcome that matters is the right home finding the right owner.

— 01

Co-broking welcome

Bring your client. We share commission on standard market terms, with full transparency from day one.

— 02

Standard 50/50 split

No negotiation games, no last-minute surprises. Our split with introducing agents is published and protected in writing.

— 03

One point of contact

Each listing has a named agent at 37.8. You'll deal with the same person from first viewing to escritura.

— 04

Full file, fast

Floor plans, surveys, planning history, energy certificates — sent within the hour, not the week.

07 — About

We named ourselves after a latitude.

37.2555° N, 8.3965° W

37.8 is a modern estate agency based on the Algarve coast. We were built by people who'd bought, sold, restored and lived through enough Portuguese transactions to know that the market deserved a sharper, quieter way of doing things.

Today we represent a carefully curated portfolio of villas, plots, restorations and investment properties across the Algarve — and the buyers we bring to them. AMI-licensed, fully bilingual, and proud of how rarely we have to discount.

— Principle 01

Priced properly

Real comparables, real demand. We'd rather list once than chase the market down.

— Principle 02

Local on the ground

Our team lives between Lagos and Tavira. We know the streets.

— Principle 03

Sharp marketing

Editorial photography, drone, film, and a global buyer network.

— Principle 04

Curated by design

We take on a limited number of mandates. Quality of stock matters.

08 — Get in touch

Buying or selling?.

Whether you're searching for the right Algarve home or ready to list one, start with a short conversation. No pressure, no fluff — just a clear view of what we'd do next.
