    Good decision. We bought a place in the town where you visited met the notary and visited the river beach, one year ago. Lots to look forward to, people here are really friendly and the food is great.

    Congratulations. I bought a property with stone buildings in a village near Tondela 25 years ago. The permits for restoration take at least 6 months and without the legalities (visits from building inspectors, clear intentions of work to be done for council scrutiny, connection to services), you might fight an uphill battle. The key words are resilience and vision. But the Beira is a magnificent place and I wish you all the best on your journey.

    Hey guys! Wanted to say I was drawn in by your Red Sox hat! haha Not often I see a European with a baseball hat, nevermind my hometown team. We've been to Portugal in the past and loved it, we're heading back this winter for a potential property search. Hoping to someday have a little place in the countryside as well. Looking forward to seeing how your project turns out. Good luck!

      Hi, thanks for the comment. So the Red Socks hat is from when I was traveling when I was younger. Spent a couple of weeks in Boston (& loved it). I watched the Bruins & Celtic’s (wrong time of the year for baseball). Follow them all now when I check on US sport. Like the Red Socks cap, its the second one I’ve owned as the first got worn out 😁

    So not in central Portugal then, good you are in a much better spot up north. Central Portugal is considered Castelo Branco county and is very cheap there, but for a reason. Is very hot in summer and very dry and a limit amount of rain, normally. ope you have sorted your residency out first as many are have problems.. You used to be able to just buy a plane ticket and move. Not any more as Brussels has stuck it's big beak in where it's not wanted. You 'll need to get a habitation license if you want to live in all of it. In that area if you want more land you will be looking at about2-3 k an acre. cheap for Portugal. but super cheap for U.K.
