About Ernesto Furtado

Some stories don't start in a boardroom. They start in a backyard. I was conceived in the Azores, Portugal. My mother left those islands at 17 - seven months pregnant - to build a better life in São Paulo, Brasil. That courage has been my compass my entire life. I was born in São Paulo. At age 8, I was drawing houses. At age 9, I built a treehouse from scrap wood. At age 10, we moved to Toronto. I never stopped building. 42 years in real estate. 20 years international. One golden rule, from day one: "Cashflow with Upside." WHAT I'VE BUILT: → Founding member of KW Commercial, 2007, and eXp Commercial, 2019/20 → Founding agent of eXp Realty Portugal, December 2020 → Grew Portugal from zero to nearly 300 agents → ATREGG (All Things Real Estate Global Group) with 150 agents across 8 countries → International markets: Panama, Costa Rica, Brasil, Southern USA, Portugal, Azores WHAT WE DO: ATREGG and Property Finders Azores is a full-service exclusive buyer advisory platform - headquartered in São Miguel, Azores, with hubs in Toronto, Panama City, and São Paulo.
