The agency that shows every number
Halvenor Realty is an international agency helping people buy, sell, rent and invest across Europe and North America — with the fees, taxes and disclosures of every listing published up front.
We started from a simple belief: property advice should be honest local knowledge, not a glossy pitch. Every agent is licensed in their market, every listing carries the costs that apply to it, and every client deals with one named person from first viewing to completion.
Why we exist
Moving home is one of the biggest financial decisions most people make. We exist to make it transparent — so buyers compare real costs, not headline prices, and sellers understand the evidence behind their valuation.
Honest local knowledge
Every Halvenor Realty agent lives in the market they serve and tells you what a street is really like — not just what sells it.
Every fee disclosed
We show deposits, taxes, service charges and closing costs on every listing, in the currency and rules of its country.
One team across borders
Buyers and sellers moving between Europe and North America keep a single coordinator on both sides.
Independent by design
We introduce independent lawyers, notaries and lenders, and we disclose who we represent from the first call.

What clients say
“Marcus showed us the real closing costs before we ever made an offer, down to the mortgage recording tax. We knew exactly what to bring to the table and nothing surprised us on the day.”
Hannah Reid · First-time buyer
“Charlotte valued our terrace honestly, even though a higher figure from another agent was tempting. We sold in five weeks at 98 per cent of asking and the chain held together because she called everyone every few days.”
Oliver Grant · Seller
“Buying from Vancouver felt daunting until Rafael explained each step: NIF, notary, taxes. A lawyer he trusted did the paperwork, and I signed the deed with a power of attorney without taking time off work.”
Isabel Santos · Overseas buyer
