    OK, first off, you two are adorable! I really appreciate how you've presented the information. Your video and text editing are tight and not free formed. You clearly did your research, made a plan and presented very clearly. I can't begin to tell you how many folks out there post 15, 20 or even 30 minute videos on "the cost of retiring in (fill in the blank) and have about 2 to 3 minutes of actual useful info followed by the rest at a ramble with either no focus or focusing on various topics. It's exhausting. So, I'll be watching your series with a great deal of interest.
    If you ever do another video on property in the regions, I'd love to see samples of less modern properties. For many home buyers, the rage is new, new, new. For us it's personality and tradition. We'd definitely watch a video on that! Thanks so much!

From the Northern region where some of the best "Mom & Pop" restaurant cooking anywhere, to the Lisbon region where they party like 1999. And finally, the Algarve where I'd like to retire myself. This region still has the Moorish African influence still embedded within Its culture which makes this place feel like home.

We've visited several times in the past and were debating between Portugal and Spain. We are heading to Portugal as my wife grandparents were born and raised in Portugal and we are considering relocating to Algarve or Cascais.

    The Silver Coast is the very best! I'm surprised you didn't mention Caldas da Rainha!! It's very decent sized city and close to the coast. Nazare is a lovely town, it has a beautiful beach. definitely super touristy in the summer and during the giant waves. My personal favourite it the Peniche area.

    My dad was born in Tavira, and I’ve been going there every year since I was kid. I absolutely love this place but, just like you said, I can definitely say that there weren’t as many foreigners in the 2000s as there are now. In the summer, the city is just overcrowded with tourists and that is the #1 thing I deplore. In that regard, I really miss the old days, but the place is still so beautiful and so dear to my heart ❤️

      Thank you! And great question. We'll address it in detail in an upcoming video but in most areas a home valued at 170 euro, or 200 USD, would have a 500 euro /year property tax. Property taxes are low.

    First off, thanks for all the amazing info you share, I'd like to know you guys' thoughts on two negatives about Portuguese housing that gets mentioned a lot: 1. is how cold houses/apts get in winter, and 2. the noise levels, from neighbors, but also dogs. Thanks!

    • @OurRichJourney
      @OurRichJourney  3 роки тому +1

      For the winter months, it really depends on how well the house is insulated. Because it gets cold, you'll likely still want a house with a heater or a fireplace. But, if it's not insulated well - even with a heater or fireplace, the house can be just too cold! And noise level depends on where you live. In condos/apartment - noise can get loud. But, again, it depends on the construction! :)

    We can’t believe how similar our situation is to yours! we reached FIRE in August 2019, I’m 37 and my partner 40, we came to Portugal from Spain, attracted by the friendly people and tax advantages. We were exploring a lot of places in Portugal, we DON’T have a car (we prefer not to drive), we are currently renting in Ericeira and looking to buy around here. Do you have any thoughts about Ericeira? Looking forward to the big reveal! 😉

    Wow, if TV was still relevant, you two should definitely have your own show on the Travel Channel. Very nicely done, and the most informative video about living in Portugal that I've seen thus far. Organized information with definitive vs descriptive phrasing is key. I don't like when I'm looking for numbers, and other channels will say, "this is expensive, this is cheaper, this is reasonable". That tells me absolutely nothing. You two knocked it out of the park. Thank you.
