Built on trust.
Rooted in Porto.
Costako is led by Thiago Costa, combining hospitality and advisory at a high standard.
Built on trust, discretion, and local insight in Porto and Northern Portugal.
A personal practice, intentionally small, with consistent delivery.
Thiago Costa
Thiago Costa spent over a decade in executive roles in private banking in Brazil, a career shaped by risk management, client trust, and the rigour that comes from supporting meaningful financial decisions.
He relocated from Brazil to Porto in 2017 with a clear conviction: the city's quality of life, cultural depth, and long term potential deserved a more thoughtful, client first standard of service. Costako brings that standard together across private experiences, real estate advisory, concierge for visitors, and relocation support.
Costako is intentionally small by design. Not a platform and not a volume driven agency, but a personal practice where clients are known by name and each engagement is treated with care, clarity, and discretion.
The name Costako reflects the founder's identity, with an echo of Costa, while remaining distinct and easy to recognise internationally. It stands for a service built to last: consistent, structured, and quietly premium.
Four values. No exceptions.
Trust
We recommend what we would choose ourselves. The objective is the right outcome, not the fastest transaction.
Discretion
Privacy matters. Personal and financial details are handled with strict confidentiality.
Local Insight
Years of living and working in Porto, and a trusted network built over time, bring context that no directory can replace.
Consistency
We work with a limited number of clients at a time to ensure depth, attention, and a steady standard across every service.
A city that earns
its reputation.
Porto is not a trend. It is a city with genuine character, rich culture, and a scale that still feels human. Its food, wine, architecture, and people reward both a first visit and a long stay.
As a place to live and invest, Porto continues to attract international residents because it combines safety, warmth, and strong lifestyle value, with a real estate market that can offer solid fundamentals when approached with the right criteria and due diligence.
We chose Porto. We know why. And we are here to help you discover it with clarity and confidence.
