A message from our CEO
I’m Ruth, leader of Portugal Property Hub.
Real Estate has been my passion all my life. Having gone through some of the most challenging of times, I have successfully worked my way through the ranks of the property industry.
I set up Portugal Property Hub 8 months ago, to lead and develop a team of experts in the property field.
In our first quarter of 2020 we had many positive results. It was very successful and we helped many clients find their dream home in the sun. The business was growing and all the team were hitting their targets and achieving their goals.
Then Covid-19 hit.
The Portuguese government immediately closed all borders, schools and non essential business, we went into lockdown. We all started to work from home. The news from all over the world was, and still is, devastating.
As a resident and business owner in Portugal, I am immensely grateful 4 weeks on that I live here. The Portuguese government has been incredible, acting so quickly and helping us all keep safe. We were voted one of the safest places in the world and just this month Forbes voted the Algarve one of the safest places in the world to live in after Covid-19. The whole community of Portugal has been inspirational, adhering to all the rules and regulations from North, South, East to West. As they say many times, » team work makes the dream work » which is exactly what our leaders Antonio Costa and Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa have done. They have not only acted quickly on closing the borders and locking the country down, they also have put business owners minds at ease, by helping us to keep our business open.
During this devastating time, on behalf of Portugal Property Hub, we would like to thank everyone in Portugal, and around the world, who are keeping us safe, the frontline workers, even our Portuguese nurse Luís, who helped in the healing of Boris Johnson. Thank you to all the lawyers, accountants and currency exchange specialists who have worked around the clock. Thank you for believing in us and for all your continuous support.
A very big thank you to our clients, we are forever grateful.
Finally I would like to say our Portugal Property Hub team continues to operate at full speed, we want to grow and grasp every opportunity and focus on the POSITIVES for the future, looking forward to meeting you all and finding you your safe dream home in sunny Portugal in the near future. In the meantime , Stay Safe and Positive.
Ruth
