    Thanks for this adventure! It really felt like out of a movie, where the cute couple buys an old castle then starts to renovate it! Wish you good luck to find your dream home !

    I also just bought property in Latvia, an nice cute apartment in Liepaja. It's insane how affordable a home is in this country compared to Canada.

      @@WeAreHarvestingdreams Ah, I’m in horrible UK 😞 I will look online, thank you so much! I just bought a 300 year old church in Shetland for 35K, which is v cheap for UK (without going in person 😦), I hope our houses go well for all of us! If you ever come to Shetland, you must come stay at the church, it’s called Sandness Church, but I’m not there yet. Latvia looks beautiful! I would love to visit there ♥️

    I wish you great luck in your house hunting, just a thought I would not isolate yourself to much I think you need some neighbours but obviously not to close. We are lucky to have good neighbour's that have helped us when we needed it that was my thinking for you because you never know what is round the corner and you may need help.
    Wonderful snowy views on your drive beautiful. Stay safe and warm.🏚👍

    An informative and entertaining video ! I am curious about taxes within those areas outside of the city ...and about regional services such as electricity, garbage pick up and road repairs ? What is the current costs of gas for example ? Thank and I'll look forward to further videos.

    • @WeAreHarvestingdreams
      @WeAreHarvestingdreams  2 роки тому +1

      Hi thanks for watching! Taxes are the same all over the country. For income taxes we have researched it's almost one third of the income. Regional services like electricity garbage pickup and road repairs are done by local governments however they are not much different from the capital city. Roads might not always be as developed as in Riga, but we also noticed that some smaller cities actually have newer and better roads than big cities. Current gas price is about 1.849 euros and is slightly increasing by day. Hope this helps 😊 👍

    ui real old houses, please be careful, also because of the size. We bought in Germany a house built in 1910, 89 square meters on two floors, we had to repair the roof, the electricity, partially water pipes, new stairs (were live dangerous), a ground plate was damaged so the cold from the ground came up (had to be fixed) outside the house, the walls it, a new entrance door, it was crazy. At the end we payed for reparing all that, as much as we payed for the house. I dont know how much friends you have that will help you for almost nothing. And how expensive materials are. Wish you luck, didnt want to destroy dreams, but take care ;)

      Thanks a lot for sharing your experience it's always useful and interesting. Of course we realize it's going to no picnic 😅 these were just the first houses we checked out in our price range and it will definitely cost us a lot to do repairs,but we are willing to put in extra time and work to make something our own place one day 😊

    TIPs from me as engeneer: 1. press toilet flushing 2!!! times. 2.roof 40 3.Water=30 Electric=30 if it is wet (NEVER buy) or pay+30 and most expenisve is YOUR TIME (say you calc 20 EUR/hour for you x 3 years for renovation = 220days * 3hours/day * 2person 20EUR/hour * 3years = 4.000 hours * 20EUR = 80.000 => 40+30+´30+80 => 180.000 EUR. Everything what you pay more then 1 EUR for the house is too much.

    As you talk in English and therefore talk to the world, you should have mentioned, that foreign citizens are not allowed to buy farmland in Latvia. They can buy the countryside building, but not the farmland, the building stands on. Foreigners are just allowed to rent the land for a limited period of time. I think that’s crucial to know. Before Latvia is overcrowded with strange (-r) 😉 people.
