Amazing dynamics with property when various family members inherit bits and bobs creating a jigsaw puzzle of small holdings. You have always done a great job of warning people of all the little (and not so little) things involved in due diligence.

Thanks you guys for the top tips and wow water is flowing nice in the river and Moly still can’t resist to jump into it … the daredevil .. 😉 and thanks for the tip on the official website for the territory. This is a goldmine on information. And indeed even when you buy a plot from an agency sometimes they don’t even know where the border of the land is.

You forgot to mentionned: "Be carefull with the lawyers". Take your time to choose the good one. Ask people around. Try to find people who deal with him, etc... Suggestion 🙏
Great video and I love your spirit. Very jealous actually. Do you have any issues with wildfires in your region? I suspect the goats help a little here too? Besides being cute. cheers

There’s no such thing as ‘wildfires’ no spontaneous combustion! There’s two kind of fires, deliberate arson or accidental arson.

@@convidtruthshallout sorry. Wildfires is a term used in the u.s for fires outside of typically urban areas. Forest fires from arson, idiots, or naturally caused (lightening).
At around the 5 minute mark you mentioned a certificate but I couldn't quite understand what it was called. Please could you tell me what this certificate is called so I don't miss this when speaking with my solicitor please.

We said "A certificate of free of use" from the local council , we originally asked the lawyer for a habitation licence but since our ruin was built pre 1951 we got a certificate to say that our ruin is not subject to a utilization license

Good tips. One thing I can never understand is: You buy property, clear, develop plant etc, fine, you've bought your dream place in the middle of nowhere with no neighbours , built, planted right up to the boundaries because it's all beautiful woodland and abandoned. Three years later along comes Joao, the great grandson of the owner of the woodland, bulldozes all 5 ha, builds a house, converts one water reservoir to a swimming pool, puts in a motocross circuit for himself and friends and starts coming every weekend. You start complaining to all and the almighty about it. Maybe someone should have sat down and done a bit more thinking beforehand..

Very sorry I never intended to be either rude impertinent nor criticising in any way, It was just trying to point out something that could happen hypothetically. At no point any of it applying to you, who I admire for what you have done. If you think the comment inappropriate please erase it as soon as possible. As I said very sorry it may have been misunderstood
Unfortunately there is a reason why everyone is selling up in Portugal! Do your homework guys
