Welcome to RETA News and Deal Updates!
First let me say this is a work in progress…
It’s the place my team and I post updates on how things are progressing with every RETA deal since 2018.
But, we have a lot of RETA deals! So, not all are listed here yet…
We are updating our deals area by area so please bear with us. When new updates have been added to this section we’ll update you in your alerts and you can also keep an eye on this page.
Any news, developments, construction milestones, or other updates will be posted here so that you always know how our RETA deals are coming along.
You’ll also get information about the original deal, the investment case behind the deal in terms of profit potential, and the uplifts in value we’ve seen already.
As a RETA member you have other resources that will help you on your journey to investing in international real estate…
If you have bought in any RETA deal and have any queries, you can email your RETA buyer’s liaison, Laura Andrade at Laura@retaconcierge.com.
Laura is there to ensure good developer communication….to be on hand to help you smooth out wrinkles. Basically, she’s your champion and helping hand from the moment you sign a contract to the day you take delivery.
And your RETA Concierge team is ready to help you, too. They will help you whittle things down… focus on what matters to you…direct you to the right place. If you have any questions contact the concierge team over here.

In December 2021, I recommended luxury condos in Lagos in the Dona Ana Beach Residences community. RETA members could lock down luxury two-bed condos for just €477,000. It was an opportunity to own luxury condos just a six-minute stroll from a beach that was voted the best in the world.
Dona Maria Residences are so close to the water you can fish off the balcony of some condos and I’m told it’s the last community that will ever be developed this close to the water—the rules governing development having changed.
The strongest RETA opportunities have always been in the Western Algarve, and in Lagos in particular, which has seen huge growth thanks to the Path of Progress moving along the coast from Faro.
In November 2020, I recommended condos in a community called Adega in Lagos. One RETA member bought a condo there for €500,000. She has since sold it for €795,000. That’s an incredible profit of €295,000.
In December 2019, RETA members could buy in a community called Santa Maria, in Lagos, from €310,500. Currently, the two-beds that were selling there for €630,000 were going for as much as €850,000.
In March 2023, RETA members could buy two-bed, two-bath condos with incredible ocean views in a beachfront community from just $228,400.
This deal is in Santa Maria Golf and Country Club, which offers the ultimate in luxury living and privacy.
In March 2020, RETA members had the chance to buy true beachfront condos…completely frontline to the nicest beach on Panama’s Pacific Riviera…for RETA-only pricing from $214,300. Premium penthouses were available for a RETA-only $252,300.
In June 2019 I brought RETA members a chance to own a condo in Seascape, which is part of the Ocean Reef community, an exclusive island home for the wealthy.
In January 2019, I recommended condos in the Residences, an attractive beachfront community in Playa Caracol. These unique villa-style buildings—with only four condos per building—are surrounded by lush gardens and just steps from the sand. Each building has its swimming pool and social area. Plus, it’s just a short stroll to the community surf club and café.
