Client Reviews

In a professional capacity I have worked with GVP for the last 2 years and can attest to their professionalism, attention to detail and their ability to go the extra mile for their clients.

I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking to live and invest in Portugal.

We made Hong Kong our home for more than 40 years and with 3 generations of the same family living in close proximity the concept of moving was nothing short of daunting.  The idea of starting again in a new culture, new schools, and a new language, notwithstanding finding a suitable area to purchase property and establish a new home was completely overwhelming.

You can find an assortment of different agencies out there that promise to help families like us work through this process, believe me, I did the research.  GVP Life however stands out from them all as being particularly caring and more personal.  I felt I could trust them from the start.  They are fast and efficient and not only do they have extensive knowledge and great connections but they know how to navigate through all the red tape with ease.  They also have personal experience of Hong Kong thereby fully understanding our background and needs.   

GVP Life offers an excellent, professional, and transparent service.  They help you to make the right choices when you are too emotionally involved.  You will feel comfortable that they are on your side knowing that they have your best interests at heart. I cannot recommend them more highly !

Having decided to move to Portugal, we realised very early on that we needed professional help to achieve that goal. We reached out to GVP and during our initial discussions with GVP Life they advised us on the scope of their services, what we could expect, the pitfalls to avoid, the deliverables and the cost of the whole process. Their professional manner and the depth of their knowledge impressed us immensely . Everything was transparent, no hidden charges, no promises that couldn’t be fulfilled. We decided to go ahead and have been very grateful that we took that decision.

How lucky we were to find GVP Life at the start of our Portugal adventure. By following their expert advice, the whole process of moving and settling here went far more smoothly than we ever could have imagined. I hate to think of the time, cost and stress if we had tried to do it ourselves. The team are really informed and go the extra mile at every stage. I would recommend them unreservedly. As i would Portugal! It has been a truly life changing experience moving to this beautiful country and my only regret is not doing it sooner!

I've worked with the GVP team over the last 18 months and they have time and again demonstrated an innate knowledge and experience of navigating the immigration process in Portugal. Throughout the visa process, I've been confident in the team and whenever any issues have arisen they have been quickly and effectively resolved.I have no hesitation in recommending them given their diligent and professional approach.

We have received excellent service from GVP Life for more than 2 years. They secured our residency visa for us, pulling out all the stops despite a number of timing and logistical issues we threw at them as well as COVID. They then sourced us the perfect pre-tenanted investment property, and made the purchase seamless by providing access to a great mortgage broker and fantastic lawyer.

Their team are professional, always available to help and very nice people to deal with. They have an extensive network that helped us relocate to Portugal and put us on the right footing with everything from tax to healthcare. We can't recommend them highly enough if you are looking to make an investment or settle in Portugal.

GVP Life has been fantastic!  They helped me with establishing my residency in Portugal, making everything easy and convenient.  They were there with me every step of the way.

Dear GVP Life Team

Thank you for an excellent service.

It is a daunting prospect to emigrate to an entirely new country and Golden Visa Portugal handled the process seamlessly.  Accurate advice, regular updates and immediate replies to our queries gave our family the confidence that the progress of our application was being continually monitored and advanced.  A potentially challenging time made entirely stress free.

GVP Life has been most patient and helpful along the way helping me get my Golden Visa through property investment, always responsive and quick at actions and problem solving. Have recommended their services to friends and will again.

Dealing with GVP Life was excellent.   They engaged with us and initially explained the issues we would need to deal with in order to obtain residency in Portugal.  Then they assisted us with the steps which were required and their involvement made the process simple and easy.  Without GVP Life it would have been much more difficult for us to achieve our objective.   They also advised when we acquired a property in Setubal and again their help and introductions to professional assistance was invaluable.  I can definitely recommend this company.

GVP Life are much more than visa and immigration specialists, they are truly like family to us. Wanting to move to Portugal from the UK, we had very little understanding of how difficult it would truly be, and at first it was a daunting task. 

With GVP Life on the case, we found a property that met our ever changing, and extremely specific needs within 1 month, bought it within 3, and submitted our visa in 4. GVP were very strict in processing everything as efficiently and as quickly as possible, with no stone left unturned. 

We cannot thank them enough and will continue to discuss future goals and how best to achieve them with GVP Life by our side.

Dear GVP Life Team,

I would just like to say how happy our family was with the Golden Visa Portugal team in helping us all to obtain our Portuguese residence’s..

We will certainly be recommending you and your team for would be prospective families who want to make the move to Portugal..

Best regards,

GVP Life have been brilliant at getting, first of all our residency applications sorted, and then helping us through the purchase of our property. 

Their knowledge of the financial processes and requirements is second to none. With access to local Portuguese banks, legal and financial services, the process is smooth and pain free.

Even when you have everything in place, they are more than happy to offer advice and point you in the right direction.

In short they can facilitate any of your requirements and I can’t recommend them highly enough.

It is a fantastic country! GVP Life Limited helped so fast by taking the pain out of doing it ourselves, residency has given our family and especially our kids the future security they need in an increasingly unstable World; with great educational opportunities and full employment rights in the E.U. secured. We couldn’t be more relieved as Brexit has made the UK less appealing as a safe haven for Hong Kongers, and we have a certain exit if needed now

Portugal has become our second home since securing residency through GVP Life Limited’s immigration team and connection to their excellent partners. They provided a fast, efficient and effective service for my whole family and their partners on the ground in Portugal were amazing.

We have always taken Hong Kong as our home, but sadly now we need a plan b and that was the U.K. before Brexit but now we feel that Portugal is a natural alternative with great food and a positive investment climate. GVP Life Limited is helping us to clearly take the path to this destination, and we are coming to Portugal to view the properties their local partners have exclusive access to

GVP Life Limited helps you focus on the key reasons why this scheme is the only one to consider and it delivers an easy path that saves you being taken advantage of on sales commissions that should not be paid, and high legal fees. They are the first firm I found in Hong Kong that offers such a full and transparent service

I bought a great investment property in Cascais thanks to the GVP Life Limited property team, and their extensive local property network. I paid zero sales commission, and the value was not only in the fact that 3 generations of my family qualify for the Golden Visa but the house has actually gone up 40 percent in value since I bought it, and we get great holidays every year in our new property with the security of knowing the family has a plan b.

We had a wonderful time in Portugal. What a fantastic country to be able to live in, from the seafood, the people, the fresh air, and it is so safe and completely stable which is perfect for us. Investing here makes so much sense right now and securing a stable future for your family.
