"And it's my privilege to welcome people to it and show them all it has to offer." During his real estate career, Ayres has won more than 30 different individual awards for outstanding performance and exceptional sales.

As a buyer's agent, Ayres puts his local expertise to work finding expats and second-home buyers their perfect Portugal home. As a listing agent, Ayres works to get his clients the best possible price for their property so they can move forward to their next chapter. "For me, it's never about the deal. It's about cultivating a long-term career. And you can only build a career if you build genuine relationships with your clients. The human factor rises above all." When he isn't assisting clients, Ayres can be found spending time with family, horseback riding at his horse farm, watching sports, traveling, reading and enjoying the outdoors. Ayres also supports the Jimmy Fund Foundation, which directly benefits cancer research and patient care.
