It is sure that 2020 will be a fable for us to share with the next generations, but we are also extremely proud to say that Portugal Homes rose stronger from the pandemic
Last year, businesses and companies of all sectors showed tremendous agility and resilience to adapt to tough times, and as such Portugal Homes, now part of the Harland & Poston Group made unconventional decisions to drive productivity and profitability.The most critical drivers for Co-Founders and Managing Directors, David Poston and Gary Harland were their employees. 2020 was a year of focus for our teams to continue growing, learning, studying, and investing in themselves to rise up stronger for the months ahead.
We opened the door to a new world, in which collaboration, technology, and the ability to constantly adapt is crucial to strengthen what has always been and will continue to be a safe investment: the real estate market.
Despite the pandemic and besides having been awarded as the best Lisbon Real Estate Single Office for the third year running, 2020 was one of Portugal Homes’ best years ever since the company was brought to life. We are happy to share with you our 2020 statistics, as well as everything else we have accomplished last year:
