Internationally-minded investors, entrepreneurs and families are using it as part of a wider diversification strategy in response to market and currency volatility, spreading risk across countries, currencies, investments, residency and family lifestyle," says UrHome's Bobby O'Reilly. "UrHome's value is that it isn't a single-service provider. With international offices and a coordinated network of legal, tax, investment, real-estate, hospitality and relocation professionals, it delivers one joined-up solution, covering mobility, investment, property, relocation, succession planning and business, rather than referring clients out." "Our aim for clients is to provide a knowledgeable international team with real local execution capability in Portugal. For our global partners, to demonstrate a serious, long-term, relationship-led operation," says O'Reilly. UrHome - https://urhome-life.pt & https://urhomegroup.pt

obby O'Reilly returns to discuss progress at Herdade do Meio, a 70-villa development with fewer than 10 units left to sell and completion expected in March, followed by a second phase adding hotel infrastructure and a sports complex for the local community.  He shares a personal update about giving up alcohol and improving his health to keep up with extensive travel.  The conversation then shifts to Portugal’s residency-by-investment landscape amid immigration-law changes, SEF’s replacement by AIMA, court pressure to clear backlogs, and updated citizenship timelines, emphasizing investment first with residency as a benefit.  Bobby outlines a bundled “360 Future of Living” model that combines legal, tax, investment, relocation, and lifestyle support, expanded via partners and new offices including Taiwan, plus a tourism venture, “UrHome at Sea,” focused on curated experiences along Portugal’s coast. 00:00 Catching Up After Summer 00:27 Herdade De Meio Update 03:05 Health Reset and No Alcohol 05:15 Portugal Immigration Outlook 06:35 Investment First Approach 09:42 360 Relocation Concierge 11:03 Global Offices and Partners 14:53 Partner Platform and Exits 19:03 AIMA Progress and Timelines 21:49 Your Home at Sea Experiences 25:07 Wrap Up and Investment Range 27:38 Final Motivation to Start
