Where They Sit in the Global Industry
Savills is widely recognised as one of the leading real estate advisory and services firms in the world. What distinguishes Savills is its strong international brand, balanced mix of transactional and recurring advisory services, premium residential and commercial expertise, and deep local knowledge — positioning it as a trusted advisor in global real estate rather than solely a volume-driven brokerage.
Savills Global Network
Almost 30 Years in Association
Quality, resilience and true professionalism: these are the hallmarks of the over 25 year association between Savills and QP Savills. Client care and customer service is one of the cornerstones of QP Savills, an ethos that deeply resonates with us at Savills. We are hugely proud to work with Kerstin and Alison and the QP Savills Team. Together we look forward to serving our clients over the next two decades.
At Savills, our global network of 700 offices across 70 countries means we are accustomed to working with the very best international properties. Yet our relationship with QP — our longest-standing associate — holds a special significance.
Just like the region itself, QP’s success lies in their ability to anticipate and deliver what international clients want. Their decision to open a third office in Loulé in 2019 and extend their focus beyond the Golden Triangle proved remarkably well-timed. As buyers increasingly sought space and privacy, QP’s move into the country homes market met that demand perfectly, broadening their reach not only to include some of the best estates in southern Portugal, but also encompassing popular tourist areas like the ever evolving Vilamoura.
Portugal continues to attract global attention like never before. Demand is rising not only from the UK and Ireland but also from across Europe, the US, and further afield. The Algarve’s lifestyle, natural beauty, and investment potential remain irresistible — whether it’s a contemporary villa in Quinta do Lago, an apartment overlooking Vale do Lobo’s pristine golf courses, a countryside retreat or indeed one of the promising New Homes. For vendors, QP Savills’ proven success speaks for itself. Their formidable marketing approach delivers tailor-made, imaginative, and highly effective exposure for every property. Supported by the global reach of Savills, their specialist divisions — including the Private Office and Sports & Entertainment — connect high and ultra-high-net-worth individuals with the world’s most exceptional homes. Listing with QP ensures your property reaches a discerning international audience, from London to Dubai, New York, and beyond.
More recently, QP have developed a carefully curated portfolio of the best new homes and off-plan developments across the region, giving buyers a full spectrum of investment choices and opportunities. With this, their offering is now complete, reflecting the full breadth and best of Algarve living.
As market leaders in the Algarve’s luxury property market, with unmatched knowledge of the region’s finest homes and proven track record, QP Savills continue to set the standard. Savills is immensely proud of this enduring partnership — nearly 30 years of shared values, expertise, and success — helping clients achieve their property ambitions under the glorious southern Algarve sun.
