Private Family Office · Algarve, Portugal

A family officefor investmentin the Algarve.

Thirty-five years, one accountable group — investment, architecture, building and the finishing trades — carrying a property from raw land to finished home, and holding it long after.

IWho We Are

Many hands,
held in one.

Most property passes through many hands, each accountable only for its piece. We keep the essential disciplines under one roof and one point of accountability — extending, where needed, through vetted partners across Portugal. From the first figure to the finished home, one team answers for all of it.

Home / Who We Are

A family office, in the truest sense.

Rooted in the Algarve for more than thirty-five years and active across Portugal — bringing the discretion and continuity of a family office to the way property is bought, built and held.

IOur Story

Built on the ground, one project at a time.

The Taylor Group began where every good building does: on the ground. What started more than three decades ago as a building and finishing practice grew, project by project, into something rarer — a single group able to carry a property from raw land to finished home, and to steward it long after.

Today the group brings finance, land, architecture and construction into one accountable structure. The people who advise on the investment are the same people who source the land, draw the plans, and see the last stone laid.

What we do

iii

How we do it

We keep the essential disciplines in-house and extend that reach through reputable, long-standing partners across the country. Nothing critical is left to a stranger.

Home / The Value

Why clients stay with us for decades.

The value of a family office is not a single service — it is the way everything holds together. Five things set our clients' experience apart.

TTGEST. 19910102030405

Five strengths, held as one.

01

Trust & Local Presence

Three and a half decades on the ground in the Algarve. We are not passing through — our name, our relationships and our reputation are permanently here, and they carry weight with landowners, notaries, banks and craftsmen alike.

Presence you can meet in person, not a number in another country.
02

Long-Term Relationships

We measure success in decades, not transactions. Most of our work comes from clients we have served before, and the families and friends they introduce. We would rather protect a relationship than win a quick fee.

03

Reputation

A record built quietly, project by project. In a region where word travels fast, a good name is the most valuable asset there is — and ours opens doors a newcomer, however well-funded, simply cannot.

04

Multilingual Teams

Fluent in English, Portuguese, German, French and Spanish — so nothing is lost between you, the authorities and the trades. For an international client, that fluency removes the single greatest source of friction abroad: not being understood.

English · Português · Deutsch · Français · Español
05

Project-Management Expertise

At the centre of everything is disciplined project management — a single point of accountability keeping every team, cost and deadline in line. One person answers for the whole of it, from first drawing to final finish.

Home / Services

Everything a project needs, under one roof.

The disciplines we keep in-house — the same teams, held to the same standard, from the first drawing to the final finish. Filter by the part of the work you need.

Architecture

Design, licensing and technical drawings — drawn to the site and steered through the Portuguese planning process from concept to consent.

Building

Full construction and project management, from groundworks to handover — to programme, to budget, to a standard we put our name to.

Interior Design

Interiors conceived as a whole — layout, materials, lighting and furniture — so a finished home feels considered in every room.

Painting & Decorating

Interior and exterior finishing to the highest level — the craft the group was founded on more than thirty-five years ago.

Landscaping

Gardens, terraces and grounds designed for the Algarve climate — mature, water-wise and built to complement the architecture.

Pools & Plumbing

Design, construction and maintenance of pools, with all plumbing and water systems installed cleanly and certified correctly.

Electricians

Certified electrical installation and smart-home wiring — specified for reliability and fully compliant with Portuguese regulation.

Kitchens & Fittings

Bespoke kitchens and fitted joinery — designed, supplied and installed as the considered heart of the home.

Legal & Accountancy

Conveyancing, company structure, tax and fiscal representation — handled by trusted specialists we coordinate, so paperwork never slows the project.

Where a specialism sits outside our teams, we call on long-standing, vetted partners across Portugal — coordinated by us, accountable to you.

·How We Work

One team behind the drawings, the build and the finish.

Because the same group designs, builds and finishes, quality is never handed to a stranger and nothing is lost between trades. One project manager holds the programme, the budget and the standard from first drawing to final handover.
