Book Your Free Discovery Call

You’ve done the research. You’ve felt the pull. Somewhere between your first Google search and this page, you made a decision that most people only dream about — you decided to take Portugal seriously.

You deserve a conversation with someone who has actually done this. Not a sales pitch. Not a generic checklist. A real, focused, thirty-minute conversation about your specific situation, your timeline, your budget, and the life you want to build.

That’s exactly what this call is.

What To Expect On This Call

This is a free, no-obligation, 30-minute video or phone call. Here’s how it works:

  • We listen first. You tell me where you are in the process — still dreaming, actively planning, or ready to move within the year. There’s no wrong answer.
  • We get specific. We talk about your city preferences, budget range, visa pathway, and any concerns keeping you up at night.
  • You get clarity. By the end of the call, you’ll know exactly which of my services fits your situation — and if none of them do, I’ll tell you that too.
  • No pressure. Ever. This call is about fit, not sales. If we’re a match, wonderful. If not, you’ll still leave with more clarity than you arrived with.

Who This Call Is For


This call is designed for Americans who are seriously considering a move to Portugal — whether that’s six months from now or three years from now. You might be:

  • Researching the D7 visa or Digital Nomad visa and feeling overwhelmed by conflicting information online
  • Looking for real estate in Lisbon, Porto, Coimbra, Aveiro, Figueira da Foz, Espinho, or Vila Nova de Gaia
  • Retired or approaching retirement and exploring whether Portugal makes financial and lifestyle sense
  • Ready to buy property and wanting a trusted advocate who understands both the American and Portuguese sides of the transaction
  • Simply unsure where to start — and needing someone honest to help you find the right first step

What Happens After the Call


Based on our conversation, I’ll recommend the service that makes the most sense for where you are right now. You’re never locked into anything. Most clients begin with a Relocation Clarity Session or a Strategic Roadmap, then add real estate representation when the time is right. Others come to me already ready to buy and we go straight to property work. Every path is valid.


  • Christie helped my husband and me navigate the entire process from our first question to our home in Portugal. Her knowledge is based on both experience and research. Professional, thorough, and deeply caring.
