About Gatehouse International Algarve

For more than 25 years, Torhaus International Algarve has been at the heart of the property market in Southern Portugal. What began as a small family-run operation has grown into one of the region’s largest and most trusted real estate networks, bringing together over 40 carefully selected independent agencies. Each partner is chosen for their honesty, professionalism, and unique property portfolio — all of which you’ll find right here on this website.

Our platform is updated daily, ensuring you’ll always see the latest listings, price changes, and new opportunities across the Algarve. From holiday apartments and golf retreats to luxury villas, farmhouses, plots, ruins, and development projects, we cover the full spectrum of Algarve property. We also highlight bank repossessions and bargain investments, so there’s truly something for every buyer.

Covering the Algarve from Coast to Countryside

Our properties stretch from Sagres in the far West to the Spanish border in the East, including all the most sought-after hotspots: Tavira, Olhão, Vale do Lobo, Quinta do Lago, Vilamoura, Albufeira, Carvoeiro, Portimão, Lagos, and Luz. Prefer a quieter lifestyle inland? We also feature charming homes in Loulé, Almancil, Santa Bárbara de Nexe, São Brás de Alportel, Moncarapacho, Monchique, Silves, Vila do Bispo, and many more.

Smarter Search, Easier Discovery

Finding your dream home should be exciting, not complicated. Our powerful search tools let you filter by:

  • Location, area, or property type

  • Budget, size, bedrooms, bathrooms, and features

  • Or simply type a keyword into the search box and let us do the work

Whether you’re looking for a seaside holiday escape, a permanent family residence, or a smart investment, AlgarveProp makes it simple.
