Real estate investment analysis

Finding a property at auction is the easy part. The hard part is knowing, before the deadline, whether the price makes sense, what the risks are and what is left at the end. That is what Rivesta is for.

Market value

Each property is compared with price per square metre references for the same area, built from official statistics, and with the known history of similar properties.

The price assessment places the property within the official statistics office (INE) values for the municipality, according to type, area, condition and features, with a value range and prices per strategy, exportable as PDF. It is an indicative estimate, not a certified valuation.

Risk across five dimensions

The risk indicators cover legal signals, market, location, data quality and operations. An opportunity indicator combines the discount against the market reference with the confidence in the data behind it.

Costs, taxes and margin

The simulation brings together the price, purchase taxes, registration, commissions when known and the works you enter, and calculates the margin and the maximum bid in three scenarios.

Follow and decide

  • Alerts by email, Telegram or in the app, with criteria by area, type, price and sale format.
  • Map, favourites and side by side comparison.
  • An opportunity pipeline, to keep each property at the right stage.
  • Co-investment searches, to invest with partners.

The indicators and simulations support triage. They do not replace checking the source, the land registry or legal, tax or financial advice.

Frequently asked questions

Does Rivesta provide certified valuations?
No. The price assessment is an indicative estimate based on public reference values. It does not replace a valuation by a registered valuer.
Is the analysis only for auction properties?
No. The same analysis applies to auctions, court sales, insolvencies, bank-owned properties and properties the investor adds to analyse.
