The clearest Portugal property tours online by far…. 🌀💚🌀

A very good video. Clear, concise, thorough. Good for you, Ken.

A very interesting property and a great project for the émigré do-it-yourselfer, or anyone else for that matter. Certainly you could live in that house while you remodeled and got the property into shape. The well organized tour was also helpful and entertaining. Thank you. It's fascinating to see these smallholdings where the old peasant families sweated a living off their little plots . I feel it honors their memory to bring these old stone and schist buildings back to life.

Love your property tours as always, nobody does em better!

Ken and Gina, i so appreciate how thoughtful and thorough you are with your property tours. It's like being with your bff who you know is going be objective and call out benefits as well as concerns. I this this is so valuable to shoppers and likely helps others learn what to look for even if they don't know they're looking yet. 😉

Ken's voice is very relaxing and easy to listen to.

Very good, detailed video I could see myself over there easlily to progress with the project. Many thanks for it.

Wow Ken and Gina that property is very very good Value for that money 💰 it's soo beautiful that land. Thanks for sharing. Angelo

a great property with a lot of potential.Thanks Ken. Great video

Loved this property so much potential. Thank you for sharing

The property tours are well done. Ken you tell it like it is. The beauty and the beast. That's valuable information. Thank you for the tour. All the best.👍👍👍👍 Jim and Harriet. Richmond, Va.

Love it! Thanks Ken and Gina. Much potential there.

Great tour as usual. So much potential. Sure wish we were 20 years younger.

Hi. I think the room close the new kitchen was a storage room. These boxes looks like the boxes where my gra- grand parents stored the meat and fish in salt. They were from Beira Baixa, Sertã

Definite potential. Small holding and Air B&B. Best value property you have documented so far. If I was in your area just now I would be viewing this one.

Definitely a total rebuild. That's why I love it.

You really do a thorough job with respect property videos. Great job!

Nice little property needs work for sure. Perfect for someone who has building skills.🙂👍👍

Thanks for the video Ken and Gina!

Your very thorough on the details,I think the property has lots of potential.

Great video Ken, it's very interesting to see what you can get for your money and if you have the ability, you can get a fantastic home ocne renovated for very good value

Great tour, Ken. Very good summary of pros/cons. I always wonder where all the detritus that needs hauling away actually goes! I wonder if it wouldn't be smart to make an offer contingent on the return of those rural articles to urban status.

Great video guys, you keep getting better and better

You should do courses for real estate agents. Because you do a review of everything regarding buildings and land. One feels well-informed after your review. And certainly gives reason to reflect on whether I should take the plunge in a few years when I retire.

Here is my armchair "virtual renovation": First, I'd try to get them to come down from 50k, every little bit helps. (Let's say they come down to $45k, but there are RE fees to pay, so the place is mine for $50k.) I am assuming the legal work is done and I have the paperwork in order and I'll guess the atty cost and any permit fees or payments will come to $10k. This might seem a lot but let's say it also covers straightening things out with the local water & elec utilities (ie, unpaid bills, hookup charges, meter improvements, etc.) Then, I see an immediate need for a truck rental, or perhaps rent a guy with a truck. There's so much junk laying around it's kind of hard to see what you're working with. Haul it all off and be done with it. Clean out the houses and storage buildings. It's best to start with a clean slate. There might be 10 x 10-yd loads of crap to take away. Salvage anything useful since there's room to store it, but don't be shy about loading up the dump trucks. This could cost about $5k for truck + labor + dump fees. At the same time, I'll look into getting a permit to burn on-site anything that will burn. I am assuming that this is possible. Start building that pile, I'd guess burning in the winter is all that's allowable, so this is something to do now. Hire some cheap labor to build a burn pile or three and pile up all the useless rotten wood and other debris, cut out any dead or dying trees, clear the unwanted brush and brambles, remove trees that are out of place, etc. Let any green wood dry for a month and then burn it. Say $4k for labor and permit. By now, the place is looking cleaner. I'd start now to look at the utilities. Get a local electrician to walk through with you and figure out anything that needs to be upgraded. Is the main meter ok? Are there panels that can still be used, or will those need to be replaced? What about the well pump? It's old - does it need replacing? Does the elec supply for the pump need any work? I'd guess there will be a list of things to do that I'll need to prioritize. At this point, I'll probably zero in on one of the houses to concentrate on and also make sure the well pump is working. I'll guess there's a lot to do, because the place is old, and about $15k will make a start, and that includes replacing the well pump. I'd next want to establish a secure storage space where I could store tools and supplies. Assume this can be done in the one of the existing buildings. This could mean some upgrades - hardening the door(s), new lighting (inside and outside) and shelving. Security cameras. Assume $3.5k. If I had started all of the above today (1/15/2022), it would have taken 2-3 months, so now it's time to get a garden going. I'd hire somebody local to till a nice plot and haul in some compost so I could get a nice garden going for summer. I already made sure the on-site irrigation supply is working, so I'd invest a bit more in some fencing, drip irrigation, vegetable starts, etc - assume $2k. Then I'd focus on making one of the dwellings liveableand secure . I'd pick the one that would be the best to carry into next winter with new insulation, new windows and doors, electrical upgrades, a new woodstove, new plumbing fixtures, new paint/plaster, new furnishings, etc. I'd try to keep this under $30k. By now it's late summer 2022. I have spent (50 + 10 + 5 + 4 + 15 + 3 + 2 + 30 =) $119k on the place and it has a liveable dwelling and is much improved. Now I can plan for next year, think about building a greenhouse, making some nice outdoor living spaces, planting fruit trees, getting some chickens, a guard dog, solar panels, etc etc. I will need a GoFundMe. I wonder what the neighbors are like....?

Great job to our amazing couple!

Good morning Ken and Gina from California. Love your videos.

Great video!! Thanks for sharing!

Excellent video. I was there today. A lot of potential with a lot of work. 🤔

The big wood boxes in attic as well the outher ones are named "SALGADEIRAS" in Portuguese, salt boxes in English

Important information to understand value .

Hi Ken & Gina. Ken you are a very god adviser regarding the house

Amazing property with so much potential! I'd be so tempted to make bottom field and house into a camping area with kitchen and bathroom, and perhaps if there's space, an Air B and B.

Sent this to my husband. Exactly the kind of property I'm seeking! Now, off for some research...

Some people are short, this would be ideal for them.

Great tour!!

More work than I’m looking for, but nice property for the right buyer.

What a super video so we’ll explained with the measurements and details of the electric and windows etc etc also the legal stuff of rustic and habitable was very informative and interesting You also have a very nice voice so it’s pleasurable to hear you talk Great video and Thankyou A

Uma propriedade muito boa. No meu caso, uma reforma tão grande me assusta. Para quem tem o dom de fazer reformas ou pelo menos, de fazer uma boa supervisão, pode transformar tudo numa linda propriedade! Esses muros e paredes de pedra são lindos, merecem um belo projeto de renovação! Muito bacana!

Interesting property. Lots of work for you or a contractor. Many of those structures will have to come down. Are rats a problem in this area? Who knows, this could be the right persons dream home! Thanks, Ken and Gina.

Thats a really nice sized property to live on and keep the maintenance manageable. That top left piece of neighbours land is crying out to be absorbed into this one but might be too expensive because of the two houses on it.

Great video 👍💯 thanks

Respect for no fear of spiders, Ken!

Very well explained

I love it 😍

I like this property, it has Lots of potentials. Need lots money...

Lovelly tour, I live in a town where you are lucky to find anything under 1 millions dollars :( (Auckland New Zealand)

Very nice this.. One option is to buy up a lot of farms, and start «farm» then or what its called in English Huge possibillities

Excellent!

this would be a great place for short people, interesting they valued lots of small little spaces instead of bigger open spaces

Nice property

Loved the tour of this property! So much potential! Did you happen to get a new toy for Christmas? That is a very handy tool that measures up a room for you.... any chance you can throw in a link as to where you got it? Love watching your property tours, you go the extra mile that gives us a great understanding of the property!

Very nice

Thnx a mil ...wieird building:-)

Nice eng level man!!👍🙂

Nice

I see I am 5 months too late viewing this property, I would have been very interested, so much potential. Do you ever go back to these properties you show and do an update ? I think a lot of people would love to see how these old properties get transformed

Love your optimism Ken but this house is seriously depressing! The new kitchen🤦🏼‍♂ "quite dated" #prehistoric🤣

Hello Ken and Gina, impressive package. I am from Fiji 🇫🇯 island, will keep your contact information, thanks.

I’m looking for property in Portugal and this looks like the perfect challenge.

Gud infarmtion

Interesting bit of property. You have a tendency to use the term 'house' rather loosely.

Right in my budget that

Doesn’t your phone have a flashlight on it. Nice property. A lot of work for someone with a lot of energy! Nice video

I want to buy a house. I need to come out and start looking in a few months.

The two off you could do this conversation in Dutch.

You pick some great properties to tour. Are you South African? Accent sounds familiar.

ok the village doesn't look like people live there no car drives, no one on the street or in the garden please tell me is it possible it is an abandoned village because in the evening it's the hardest when you hear noises from everywhere, nobody says good morning to you, not even in paradise alone

Good Morning, thank you for the great content! Is it possible to purchase this from overseas and then hire contractors to build a new home and maintenance the land? I notice on a lot of these videos it seems the new owners have to do it themselves?

A condensação não é por falta de habitantes, mas sim infiltrações do telhado ok

I would love to buy a place like this but in the UK I can't get a mortgage.... 😔

how much would a reasonable budget amount to fix the house and make the garden great again ?

This is the hottest part of Portugal, seeing temperatures of 45c, so growing stuff is not that easy.

Would you consider saying the square feet so that people on an American system can understand?. I don't get the dimensions at all.....

Superb buildings, beautiful area. Name of village Ken?

How easy is it to get the urban certification? Anyone ?

Now that it's sold... What did the new owners decide to do with it?

Aren’t building supply expensive in Portugal? Can you, if you have the skills of course, do your own electrical, plumbing, etc?

does portugal alllow air bnb?? That's 65k Euros in repairs??

Delightful but the legal status is an issue.

Типичная для Португалии картина. Вся жизнь в Фару и Лиссабоне. Там цены минимум в двадцать раз выше. Поэтому покупая участок нужно в первую очередь думать о местоположении а не о цене. Ведь вложить придётся в него даже больше чем на берегу, учитывая логистику. А продать потом нереально.

Nice house It looks like there was a Very old Hobbit living there 😅

Break it down, and rebuild it on your own taste, I suggest 🌴☀️🇵🇹

Nice land, but what a confusing house

O distrito de castelo branco é o mais barato, principalmente se a terra não for de boa qualidade. A viver por aí só mesmo os mais velhos, infelizmente. Abraço desde Aveiro Portugal 🇵🇹

Stop by jasper property he will like see you 👍

Think that corrugated iron roof is actually corrugated asbestos 😂😂

Hi Ken Is this property still for sale please?

Are you a realtor? Can you tell me what is the commission? To purchase a home there.

Very Little Roms With a legal situation that you can’t live in there. In Portugal this will take you min. 10 years to be able to live in there. And than starts the starts the renovation

A lot of work, but a lot of property for 50,000€. Quirky.

I like the way you work, realy very good en the right info! But i lived as a European in Portugal for 7 month and went back to Brazil! My opinion about Portugal beautifull landscape depending where you live the temepratures are a little better in Winter ( not everywhere). Negative: Housing , Rent, Low salaries , Portugues are not as friendly as other European natives and they explore Forgein people by paying less then normal! Sorry for my English.

A dwarven settlement!

Prpty

I'd demolish it and build new.

who buys something like that for so much money

Wow , 50k euro gets you a shed , orange 🍊 tree , whole bunch of rubbish and a lovely kitchen I. The middle of bum fack nowhere 😂😂😂😂 North Dakota usa 🇺🇸 “ hold my beer and give me 1000$ “

Nao é casa é um curral para cavalos e o dono com a bezana nao construia e so fazia lixo .Cada bezana que so fazem m..........

Very weird land parcel shape.
