Shaping destinations.
Building legacies

Athena Advisers are a real estate agency, specialising in international residential and commercial property.

A generational responsibility is no small thing. We feel the weight of this with everything we do. It's why we have to think decades ahead.

Whether it's a commercial property in Portugal or an Alpine second home in France, the lifespan and spirit of a creation is equally as important as a satisfied investor.

We've all seen the mistakes and, in some cases, the successes of modernist and postmodern architecture, so now it's up to us to create the places of the future.

Investment stories

We’ve guided a knighted British businessman from a ski penthouse in Val d’Isère to a €2M, 6% yield commercial asset in Lisbon combined with a Golden Visa citizenship investment.

A Dutch client based in the UAE started with one Alpine home and we went on to help him build a €10M seven‑property portfolio across France and Portugal.

Others have upsized, reinvested and returned over a decade or more. Each journey reflects something deeper than the transaction: a shared belief in the power of property to shape not only financial futures, but lives. That’s the Athena Advisers difference.

€600K to €60M, we help clients invest in their lifestyle

What we do

From virgin pieces of peninsula land and decaying period properties in capital cities, to seemingly unfeasible mountainside creations, we help people shape and deliver property development in a timeless manner, one that's synchronised with international and domestic demand and enables intuitive design to link with effective sales and marketing strategies.

We specialise in both residential and commercial properties, offering tailored strategies that address the unique needs of each sector.

From second homes that define exclusive neighbourhoods to cutting-edge commercial spaces that attract global businesses, we provide expertise that spans the full spectrum of real estate. With a deep understanding of international markets, we help clients navigate complex property landscapes, ensuring every development aligns with their long-term vision and investment goals.

We guide.
We connect.
We build.
