Multi award-winning Surrey estate agent Barton Wyatt has been selling homes in the Virginia Water area, where house prices regularly top £15 million and the average price is over a million, for over 50 years. Half a century's worth of experience has certainly taught the team a trick or two and there is not much they don't know about buying, selling and letting mansions in Surrey's prime territory.

The Barton Wyatt team is trusted by Surrey's vendors to achieve premium prices for their homes, being appointed time and time again by clients both at home and overseas, who leave the sale of their homes in the custody of the long-standing, loyal team.

Property experts are, in general, predicting a bumper year in 2016 but it will be a bumpy ride for the prime market with increased stamp duty levies hitting this sector the hardest.

2016 is looking to become a hot year for real estate sales in the Algarve. Below is a small selection of our current portfolio, but there are more on our website, or you can contact us for a personalised property search where we also include our ‘offline’ property listings.

CoworkAlgarve is the name of an ambitious new project launched by local resident Sarah Young, and designed to give people a chance to work with others “in one of the most beautiful places in Europe”: the picturesque fishing village of Ferragudo.

The idea is simple. “Coworking gives people who usually work from home a chance to get out of the house and work together with other like-minded people in a communal hub,” explained Sarah.

The concept of a single image being able to portray a situation or an idea more evocatively than whole paragraphs of text is not a new one. In fact, the old adage that 'a picture is worth a thousand words' dates back to the early 1900s. However, it remains just as relevant today as it was when the expression was coined.

This is particularly true when it comes to selling overseas property. The majority of potential buyers will use the internet to begin the search for their dream home overseas and in a marketplace crowded with information the perfect image can stand out like a beacon, calling to a buyer to find out more. In the same way, a poorly staged image can cause a property to be passed over with little more than half a glance.

Portugal's Algarve is blessed not only with stunning beaches and almost year-round sunshine, but also with some of the world's leading golf courses. In fact, the World Golf Awards Gala Ceremony in late 2015 crowned Portugal the World's Best Golf Destination for the second year running.
Held over three days, the prestigious ceremony allowed guests to enjoy use of Portugal's Quinta do Lago golf resort. Known for its stunning courses and immaculate golfing villas, such as this stylish five bed contemporary property with its own pool, Quinta do Lago also benefits from an excellent array of glamorous bars and restaurants and high end boutique stores, as well as a lush natural environment.

At Exclusive Algarve Villas we offer the largest luxury property portfolio. See some of our current listings below.
