Property handover

Create a clear baseline for a newly acquired Algarve home.

Property handover support, access records, inventory photography and a practical care baseline for overseas owners.

GUARDEMAR

A documented starting point after completion, refurbishment or a change of local arrangements.

Who it is for

A practical service for owners who are away.

For owners completing a purchase, taking back a property from another manager, finishing building work or establishing a new local care routine.

A useful property-care relationship starts with accurate information. A handover records what is present, who has access and which systems or issues require follow-up.
