That green stuff on the spring is called duckweed. Get yourself muscovies (they are in fact wood geese from Mexico originally, not ducks) that are super quiet - they don't quack, just hiss. They will eat all the duckweed and the sludge. Also all insects and snails. Big, delicious eggs with best yolk ever. Also they are prolific breeders, great mother's and have big clutches. Also, their meat is wonderful. More like red meat than duck meat.
As a child we had a big male muscovy duck who was very protective and would chase away people entering our property, or better said, his property 🙂. according to my mum only i could be near him without him doing anything
As an engineer I got so excited about 17:30. You can look into installing some brass anchors on which you can than install or build anything you want. Pretty much the perfect foundation for anything you want (apart from installing piping lol). You can also save yourself a bit of money with not having to pour concrete for your buildings.
Really nice piece of land you found there. Since you talked about solar, that might be one thing the rocky parts might actually still be useful for, to setup larger amounts of solar panels.
So happy you have picked my little country, despite the fact that tI live in Belgium :-) it's still nice to know I have one more reason to go back every now and then.
Building structures on those rock surfaces is just a few anchor screws away, I'd say. You could also put raised beds on there to create a terrassed garden.
Mr.Nelson to be honest I am interested to buy a land 2/3 Hector's for Livestock, Potato Cultivation, Vineyard and a small homestead! If your country give me PR I am definitely buy within short. Would you reply me the situation! I am from Bangladesh near by India.
The duckweed in that pond is excellent for composting and pigs love to eat it. If you plan to make raised bed gardens, you could certainly do that on those granite flats.
@@Mamamia878 Hi, in my case I have my land split in 3 sections: Agricultural(10ha), buildable area(2ha) and Ecological reserve(26ha) so could get the permits to build. I would suggest (if interested) buy land/forest with a ruin. Saves you a lot of headaches. Gr. ua-cam.com/users/JensHeijkoop
Very good video!! I bought 15ha in s/wAlgarve in 2007. So I went through it 14 years ago. now it became a proper "village". I wish you good luck with your OneArmy-Project! Greetings from the south! Georg
Nice recap, I spend 2 weeks scouting Croatian countryside for our future community land too...the cost are pretty similar (the land here is much cheaper though). Also, cost here for electricity activation only is already 1500 euros, 2000 more if you can get access to the water network. Internet can be amplified by combining mobile network subscription with a router and certain antennas which function on the same frequency as the router.
Plan for summer 2020 was to visit Netherland to see my brother and meet precious team. You leave from there and covid destroy my plan. I wish you to be healthy, strong and happy.
The key is to get a house you can restore you can buy land adjacent also consider asking the owner for an owner financed purchase basically paying in instalments it exists in Portuguese law but is pretty much forgotten about. My house is on such a deal.
haha you signed the contract at my Favorite Notary. I've bought 5 properties already, and all of them with Dr.Salome, she is the best!!! I've been with alot of Notaries, but she is just the most professional.
Wellcome to Treixedo!! You will find very nice people at that vilage, i think you already meet some of them. I look forward to seeing the development of your project.
Good luck with the forest fires. Get a good insurance because as you can see from the burned trees there was a fire there that burned the all land ( at least the parts you show in the video). Has someone mentioned in the comments, hope you can manage the ''Acácias" and plant some nice native trees. This will also help you to be a little bit safer in case of a fire!! Proficiat for your choice! Portugal is quite a nice spot! :P
Nice and informative video. One thing I would add is to consult a lawyer as well before signing anything. Property purchase is also linked to you taking over any debt attached to that property. A notary would not check that for you but a lawyer would. Oh, and then you have your annual property tax (IMI) as well ...
Wow,more power to you guys out there. I finally found a channel that speaks to my creative imagination and consciousness about the environment. This is just the 2nd video I’ve seen apart from the container build. Subbed!
We have a similar project in Sri Lanka. Old Estate land, around 50 Hectares. we are experimenting new methods of farming and introducing sustainable tourism. Reminded me of our land, as we also have a public road in the middle. We lived there one year, nearest tiny town with couple of ATM and one supermarket is around 20 mins ride. This is very interesting and we sent our scout to Portugal 3 years back. We are researching to get a similar project in Portugal. Wish you all the best and yes, this is amazing. Would love to see how you develop it. Can’t wait to get there again. But the Pandemic is holding us as we need Visa to go back.
wow, best video guide on how to do the relocation to portugal,i have been looking for land and people who are doing the same and i cant believ in more than a year i never ran into your videos. very grateful i did,thanks somuch for the detail shareng of info. i have spain and italy still on the board but i think when it comes to network Portugal result as hands down winner. i see how the expats help eachother and how all show in their videos the donations and gfts from neighbors , cant wait to findmy property and move. we are not dutch but we live in Eindhoven, its nice to know some dutch over there, success !!
Black locust trees grow fast and have wood much stronger than even cedar. But require frosts to keep them from becoming invasive. Willow is useful but it can't be near important water pipes, septic, or it invades pipes.
One of the best ways to find land we found was to chat with people at the local coffee bar and restaurant. it seems that all Portuguese have land to sale :D
if you have a legally built ruin, and instead of reforming it you opted to build a new structure to the legal same floorsize, do you have to then demolish the ruin? Maybe this is strange but I see beauty in some (not all) of the ruins I've seen, and the idea of creating a natural looking garden within and around the ruins, whilst living in a newer building on site would be something I'd enjoy to experiment with.
@@peerullahhussainy7610 First you dont know nothing about me, second you should talk about what you know something. But one thing i already realize for sure about you, the first you not see the video careful, and in second you are not from Portugal with his mindset
I have heard that a few times now and it's really putting me off moing here. Does anyone actually see if you have all the proper paperwork for everything?
Awesome video. Another issue with urban land is often each year a property tax bill. I know from my own experience although yet to forward the idea beyond some municipal paperwork of some twenty thousand square metres within Bulgaria.
Walnuts, I have many saplings that you could have and considering how valuable the wood and how quickly they grow and the nut yield, I would say they are a long term winner...
Generaly there's no such thing as useless land, even land in Antarctica can be used for various things. But you got yourself a huge plot of land for very little money and it's good fertile soil and you have water, your land is very valuable.
Have you considered getting a herd of goats to help you clean the land? They would eat all those bushes and thorny plants, and help you keeping the land.
In regards to internet and telecoms, I would suggest the following: Telecoms: Install a 20m plus ground mast with an antenna and equipment that can relay that signal to the community. Internet: Look at Starlink and other satellite internet option. Use networking equipment such as Ubiquiti to easily and rather cheaply distribute that connection around the land.
Nice to have this detailed introduction. I am looking forward to visit the place at some point. Lots of potentials there. For the rock area my first thought was an amfitheather, maybe. Anyway nice to see this are turning from a dream to reality. Keep on going.
Te gekke Video! Dank voor alle informatie. Wij zitten in de eerste fase en gaan binnenkort naar Portugal om stukken land te bekijken. Ik ben nu geabonneerd op jullie kanaal dus blijf jullie volgen. En misschien in de near future kan ik jullie info goed gebruiken. Zodat wij goed beslagen te ijs komen. 🙌 Dank alvast voor alle info.
How do you feel about other nationalities buying into portugal ? It's a guenuine question there is a lot of interest (look up 'pure portugal' on fb/google) because we feel portugal is still more 'raw' and cheaper. But I'm afraid it 'gentrifies' and it is frowned upon by portuguese locals.
@@098765432qwertyuiop I used to like it... now, not so much. Especially, with youtubers. Most just advertise how cheap it is. There's more to the country than that. Then there's the question that it drives the prices up for us actual portuguese to buy.
Well done! It must be good place to live, my friends Miguel PT and Bruno P live in Portugal. People you must know if you live in Portugal and like fruit plants!
Yeah my main challenge is getting the 116.005€ to buy a land :D Thank you for sharing that information though. At least now I know how much I need to get :3
something to consider is to be REALLY honest with yourselves about which weather your body can handle well (roughly the weather is only going to get hotter!). if you are light sensitive for example you may want to look further north. shorter growing seasons are of course an issue there and will need adjustments (tho there is this family who has done some amazing work on that: they enclosed their house basically into a giant geodesic dome greenhouse) all "problems" on the land have "solutions" (even if they may be pricey or not for you.. ) but "problems" within your body may be another issue entirely. if you are suffering when you are out of the sun for long period of times, you may not want to move to sweden... if you are sensitive to traffic noise.. highway humms may be a long term burden you might not be prepared for (we are a fam of late diagnose Neurodivergent-combos and only found out how MUCH that noise burden is a thing after discovering ANC headphones and the pandemic pause... sigh)

Great video guys thanks ! There is a beautiful keyline on your property, have you considered using keyline design on your land ? Cheers from South West France, looking for a farm to live on ;)
Don't want to upset somebody, but what is the goal of the project? How it will prevent China or USA from burning of fossil fuel and continuing to run the growth-based economy? If you want just to minimize your footprint, there is many options to do this in Netherlands. If you want the radical change in the economy, you need to revisit the current monetary system. See for example "Ch@nging money" by Helen Toxopeus.
amazing stuff :-) what are the intentions on participating in the local issues with the portuguese common land or municipalitys (councils) in order to help this country interior area to be one day a full on forest with no monocultures..? 🙂
Just for the record, Portugal is the one country in the world that more then 60% of population are land owners, so here we can say that the country belongs to the people and not to the state, the Portuguese have the concept of private property very well consolidate since the French revolution, so one day duscusse with a German, I say that we are richer because in Germany the land owners are few, and the majority of agricultors must rent the land to that few owners, in Portugal is rare an agricultor rent a land because is the owner of his land.
@roberto langsince the XIV century its normal for a Portuguese go to the world, so big deal, Portugal is the best country for living I dont change it for nothing else.
Are you a Portugese citizen? I’m dutch too, and want to buy a smaller peace of land then you have. But is the buying proces still the same in the video if you are not a Portugese citizen? I still want to be a Dutch citizen for the first few years
That green stuff on the spring is called duckweed. Get yourself muscovies (they are in fact wood geese from Mexico originally, not ducks) that are super quiet - they don't quack, just hiss. They will eat all the duckweed and the sludge. Also all insects and snails. Big, delicious eggs with best yolk ever. Also they are prolific breeders, great mother's and have big clutches. Also, their meat is wonderful. More like red meat than duck meat.
Muscovy breast meat is delish
As a child we had a big male muscovy duck who was very protective and would chase away people entering our property, or better said, his property 🙂. according to my mum only i could be near him without him doing anything
As an engineer I got so excited about 17:30. You can look into installing some brass anchors on which you can than install or build anything you want. Pretty much the perfect foundation for anything you want (apart from installing piping lol). You can also save yourself a bit of money with not having to pour concrete for your buildings.
I’m so excited for you all! This is going to be amazing. Plant the seeds now!!! Wishing you all the best.
Really nice piece of land you found there. Since you talked about solar, that might be one thing the rocky parts might actually still be useful for, to setup larger amounts of solar panels.
Came here to recommend the same. That would be the best because you don't waste land that could grow things otherwise.
From the looks of it, it is on the west side so not very well positioned.
So happy you have picked my little country, despite the fact that tI live in Belgium :-) it's still nice to know I have one more reason to go back every now and then.
Fires is what mainly puts me off Portugal. I would look into ways of creating fire barriers before building structures.
Building structures on those rock surfaces is just a few anchor screws away, I'd say. You could also put raised beds on there to create a terrassed garden.
Чувак я всей душой болею за тебя! Я верю в Вас! У Вас обязательно всё получится!
Welcome to Portugal!!! real glad to see your project in my country
Mr.Nelson to be honest I am interested to buy a land 2/3 Hector's for Livestock, Potato Cultivation, Vineyard and a small homestead! If your country give me PR I am definitely buy within short. Would you reply me the situation! I am from Bangladesh near by India.
cool to see how started from plastics, now there are viodeos on every part of our life
The duckweed in that pond is excellent for composting and pigs love to eat it. If you plan to make raised bed gardens, you could certainly do that on those granite flats.
Great video. Timo’s research and explanation at the end was great 👍🏻
It is definitely a resource-rich piece of land. Very informative video by the way. 🎉
Nice guys! I also bought a forest in Portugal few years ago! Welcome!
GTFO
What are you allowed to do with Forest land?

Super good. Just starting to look for land in Portugal. So found this very helpful.
Awesome video. Another issue with urban land is often each year a property tax bill. I know from my own experience although yet to forward the idea beyond some municipal paperwork of some twenty thousand square metres within Bulgaria.
Yes, good to visit in different seasons indeed 👻
the bare rock slopes can be re-vegetated, check out John D. Liu's "Hope in a Changing Climate" on how various projects have done that already.
If you can afford 100€ per month (and I think 500 initially) you should set up a starlink dish for your internet connection.
Great piece of land! Best of luck!
Now I remember where I know you from! Damn! So good you came to portugal! Precious Plastic! Awesome!

You are not far from us in Tabua, interesting approach to buying and planned lifestyle.
Mooi video, goed uitgelegd. Veel succes. Volgende maand gaan we die kant op om een toekomst te bouwen. Als het ons een goeie vibe geeft.
Adding to your list: Topography. Is it level?
Congratulations on the purchase.
Welcome guys! Looking forward to do a visit and maybe helping if it will be possible.
You guys should use Starlink internet. It's by far the best internet. It's coming to east Europe later this year.
Portugal is not East europe. But yes, starlink if avalible is good option.
Starlink in Portugal by June/July 2021...
$100 USD per month for Starlink. Isn't there a better alternative? Isn't that a rip off at those prices or is that the only alternative in rural areas

Yeah my main challenge is getting the 116.005€ to buy a land :D Thank you for sharing that information though. At least now I know how much I need to get :3
you could totally build more organized vegetable growing from buckets (don't know the english word) on the granite
With that stream, you may look into building a micro hydro dam. You would only need a meter or so of head.
Awesome information, Thx for sharing it.
I just found your channel. Informative and upbeat! I look forward to more details on the project. Best wishes.
I have serious, major doubts...
that's a good start.
Very Informative. Good job.Kudos 👍
IMT is not a capital import tax. It is a tax for the the selling of property between the seller and the buyer, and paied by the buyer.

The usery slave system is the root of the issue. Europe is fast heading to communism if not already there.

Try off grid electric system. You will not regret it believe me.
