About Sónia Gonçalves

Your Trusted Real Estate Advisor in Madeira Welcome. My name is Sónia Gonçalves, and I am a Real Estate Consultant with eXp Portugal, based on the island of Madeira, where I have been supporting international buyers since 2021. With a degree in Public Relations and Corporate Communication and 19 years of experience in the banking sector, I bring a strong combination of communication skills, financial expertise and strategic thinking to real estate. My background in mortgage financing, client advisory and risk analysis allows me to guide buyers with clarity, confidence and complete transparency — especially when purchasing property abroad. Buying a home in another country is not just a transaction. It is a life decision, and it deserves professional guidance, local knowledge and someone you can truly trust on the ground. A personalised approach — built around you I work in a highly personalised and selective way. Every property you see on this website has been chosen with care, based on location, quality, lifestyle appeal and long-term value. My role is not to show you everything — but to help you find the right property, aligned with your goals. I personally assist you throughout the entire process: • Careful property selection based on your profile and objectives •Private property tours, including pick-up and drop-off at your hotel •Guidance on legal process, taxes, documentation and timelines •Support with financing, residency considerations and after-sales needs Having personally built my own home, I also bring practical insight into construction quality, materials and new developments, which is especially valuable for buyers considering properties under construction or newly built homes.

The island offers an exceptional combination of safety, political stability, excellent healthcare, year-round mild climate and outstanding quality of life.
