Hello, nice to meet you. My name is Darya Viana. You can speak with me in English, Portuguese, Ukrainian, and Russian. I was born in 1979 in Ukraine. I earned a master’s degree in sociology. I built a professional career in marketing and advertising. In 2008, I moved to Portugal, and from there, my career path shifted toward real estate.

My passion for real estate began with my own personal experience. The challenges I faced, the questions I had, and my in-depth exploration of the Portuguese real estate market: what it offers, how it works, the level of service that agents and agencies provide to their clients, what’s missing, the opportunities and limitations, the quality of construction, bureaucracy, paperwork, taxes, rules, laws, regulations, and so on.

The real estate world captivated me, and since 2010 I’ve been helping other foreigners find their dream home in Portugal as a private home-finding specialist. In the meantime, short-term rentals and home staging have become my hobby, helping owners maximize the value of their properties and related services on the market to secure the best price and find the right client.

Starting in 2013, I took my real estate career to the next level. I study, attend many training sessions, and work at several top-rated real estate agencies. I have become an experienced real estate professional. I am always learning and improving my knowledge and services.

Today, with more than 10 years of experience in the real estate market, I provide full-service support to help buyers and sellers connect. If you’re a property owner, I’ll help your property shine. I’ll provide high-quality pre-listing preparation, handle all the paperwork, develop marketing strategies, and negotiate to find the best buyer for you. And, by the way, I DO READ carefully and review all documentation and contracts provided by lawyers before sending them to you. Your property is in good hands with me.

I will find you the best option for your future home, vacation home, or investment project. I’ll take into account not only your preferred location and number of bedrooms, but also your lifestyle, family needs, hobbies, and future plans. I’ll guide you through the bureaucracy and paperwork to make the purchase process easy and straightforward for you. In addition to Portuguese clients, I have experience working with clients from the U.S., Europe, Eastern Europe, and Asia, including remote property purchases. I’ll lead the process of searching, negotiating, and purchasing—from “just an idea” to the actual keys to your new home.

I really love my job, and to me, the words “property,” “house,” or “home” mean—PEOPLE. And I remember the faces behind all the properties I’ve worked with—they’re happy and they smile.
