DEVELOPMENTS GROUP
About us
Scout Developments Group is a specialized real estate deal sourcing and advisory firm based in Northern Portugal, dedicated to unlocking the potential of unique real estate opportunities for investors and developers alike.
Our primary function is the origination and structuring of off-market real estate transactions. We specialize in finding opportunities that are not publicly listed, giving our clients a crucial competitive advantage:
Deal Origination for Investors: Our main focus is sourcing exclusive investment opportunities that precisely align with your specific criteria and risk appetite. We identify and pre-qualify high-potential assets before they reach the open market.
Capital Raising for Development Partners: For development partners, we connect viable projects with the necessary equity and debt financing, ensuring the capital structure supports the deal we source
We exclusively seek out and structure opportunities that reflect the distinctive charm and strong investment appeal of Portugal, focusing on three core asset types:
Coastline: Focus on premium assets with privileged access or views of the coast, tapping into high-end tourism and residential demand.
Heritage: Rehabilitation projects that preserve historical and cultural value, transforming emblematic buildings into luxury residential or boutique hospitality spaces.
Vineyard: Investments linked to the agricultural and hospitality sectors (Agri-Tourism), with a focus on wine properties and landscapes of excellence that offer diversification and experiential value.
We are ready to be your Scout in the Northern Portugal real estate market. Contact us to discover how we can structure and source your next investment.
More than deals, we build platforms of value, growth, and shared success.

Explore our favorite asset types
Our deal sourcing approach is built around three core lifestyle concepts, each reflecting a different facet of Portugal’s identity and investment potential.
Coastline, Heritage, & Vineyard
Coastline
Projects developed along the Portuguese coastline capture the essence of effortless living — ocean views, natural light, and architectural minimalism that blends sophistication with serenity. These projects are designed for those seeking both return and refuge, where quality of life becomes a tangible asset.
Heritage
In the heart of Portuguese cities, we focus on restoring heritage and reimagining spaces for modern living. These developments connect tradition and innovation, creating dynamic hubs where culture, design, and economic growth converge. Heritage concepts are ideal for investors who value liquidity, rental potential, and cultural relevance.
Vineyard
Rooted in authenticity, our vineyard developments embody the art of living well. Combining agriculture, tourism, and sustainability, they deliver emotional and financial returns. Each project is a curated experience — from architectural design integrated with nature to the creation of high-value assets linked to Portugal’s winemaking legacy.
