International property hunting — your time back, and the properties no one else sees.
Your international buyer's agent & property hunter. We source on-market and off-market properties you'd never find on your own — and we handle every step, so you stay focused on what matters.
Buy. Sell. Rent.
One property hunter for all three.
Property Sourcing
On-market and off-market property search across our international network. Local-rate negotiation. End-to-end acquisition from brief to signed deed.
Property Sales
Discreet, off-market sale of your property to a vetted international network — without listing publicly. Maximum value, minimum exposure.
Long-term Rentals
Relocation-grade rentals sourced across our network — vetted properties, trusted local management, end-to-end support. For buyers who want to live in a place before they commit to buying.
Three steps from brief to keys.
You fill the form
Budget, timeline, location of residence, target destination. Three minutes — and we have your full search brief.
We search for you
Off-market properties across your chosen destination. Vetted, negotiated at local rates. We show you only what matches your brief.
You find your property
The one you'd never have found on your own. We handle notary, legal, tax setup, banking. You sign. We hand you the keys.
We're not an agency.
We're your .
We're property hunters — your international buyer's agent. There's a difference. An agency works inventory. We work for the buyer — one client at a time, across the destinations I know inside out.
Alex, our founder, is Belgian. She knows what it means to navigate a foreign real estate market with no local network, no trusted advisor, and no one to tell you the truth about what a property is actually worth.
That's why we built Private Villa Hunters. Over years, we've assembled the network across Portugal, Spain, Morocco and Mauritius — developers, notaries, private sellers, tax specialists — that lets us access both on-market and off-market properties, and negotiate at local rates for international buyers.
"Your bank and notary back home don't know these markets. We do."
Four buyers.
Four signed deeds.
Properties acquired across Portugal, France, Thailand and Mauritius — through the network Alex has built for international buyers.
"From our first call to the day we got the keys, Alex was incredible. She found us an off-market property in Cascais we never would have discovered on our own."
"I was skeptical about buying abroad remotely, but the network in Koh Samui made everything smooth. Highly recommend for anyone investing abroad."
"Viewings, legal checks, price negotiation — they handled everything. As a busy professional, having one trusted contact for the whole process was exactly what I needed."
"We wanted a property in Mauritius but had no idea where to start. Alex guided us through every step and found us the perfect property within our budget."
