As usual you make a quality video that shows what could be a really nice home. However the price tag is somewhat optimistic. €40k - €60k might be more realistic.

[@lapsedluddite3381]

The price works out to 3.2€ per m² - for a property that has had a tremendous amount of work done clearing out decades of dense brush and dead tree overgrowth. Plus it has a very good condition garage/storage barn. Plus that stunning stone barn - on an urban parcel, ready for conversion to a charming home. Plus a beautiful year round mountain spring in the dooryard. Plus permission for a new build up to 250m² ... That price is not that far out of line. One would, of course, expect to negotiate...

You got to love those Granite Boulders Ken. There so many uses for this property. Certainly space is not a problem. The fact you have streams of water running through it is a big plus. You did the realtors well showcasing the land . Are you able to build more buildings on the property? i.e. cabins for inhabitants. All the best Ken and Gina👍👍 Jim, Harriet and Yuki

[@lapsedluddite3381]

Check the listing, it says it is possible to build up tp 250m² in the 'nature park' area, in addition to being able to create a small home in the stone barn. It might also be possible to build temporary cabins or yurts, and it would be easy to create nice spaces for camper vans along that track in the 'nature area' if permission is possible in that area, the realtor should know

[@devorn666]

By cleaning the property they really mean they stripped of all the timber that was worth something. The only trees left are the ones with no commercial value. Add to that the asking price, and I can clearly tell what kind of person the owner is. He can keep his boulders.

[@saborear]

😂

[@a.cobbaut9711]

Yes, original asking price 260k, now knocked down to 160k. It should go for around 60k. It's useless land except for the fact you can build a ,smallish, house on it.

[@a.cobbaut9711]

@@ericmehl1356 agreed, perhaps 70k because electric is so close by. What they need is proof you can put in a new build with larger footprint. That 50 square meter barn is impossible to convert into a home. Well, not if you can not extend footprint.

As others have commented Ken, the house doesn’t seem to be anywhere near 100 square metres. The Idealista entry states that too, and states buildable area 250?? Confusing 🤔 When you were filming did it feel that big?

[@lapsedluddite3381]

I'm guessing that the 100m² is considering that the barn has two floors (actually one and a half right now). So they're saying it has 50m² per floor, if adding the third floor would make it 150m². The 250m² is permission for a new build in the nature park area of the property.

Great dream land for a building project I love that border maded with rocks, that don't ruin view and you actually don't need any 2 meter fence around the property for privacy With price of 120k (that quite a lot for rocks) you need another 120-150k to do some 3 badroom good house (you don't need big foundation also btw) from that barn and in total of ~300k you take a great place to live for a price of appartment in the center of big city (little to much) But i worry about the bald mountain with stumps i don't know what happend there but somethig not good at all.

[@BobvanT]

seems pretty expensive for a bit of land …… but it’s the market that decides

[@lapsedluddite3381]

It is more than 12 acres, it has the excellent garage/ storage barn, and the stone building is gorgeous. The current owners have done a tremendous job of clearing the land, making driving and hiking trails, and even started making trenches from that stunning spring to irrigate the 3 plus acre terraces for growing crops. The entire property has been cleaned up beautifully and is ready for the new owners to start building their dream home - it has permission for a new build of 250m² in the Nature Park area, as well as the potential to turn that lovely stone barn into a charming cottage. That beautiful spring is a wonderful feature that adds a great deal to the value of the property. Definitely more than "a bit of land"

[@samuelh4177]

Great video! I really want to move to Portugal from the UK but i have no idea how to do it. Do you need an online income to move with the visas post brexit etc? Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

[@OKportugal]

Hi Samuel, there are a couple of different Visa options to live in Portugal D2 visa for entrepreneurs starting a company or business in Portugal. D3 visa for professionals who get proof of a 1 year contract to work for a company in Portugal. D7 visa for retirees or people with a passive income through savings or investments. D8 visa for digital nomads (Need to earn at least 39360.00 per year) Golden Visa (500k investment in non-real estate entities). The D7 is a cheap way of getting residency as long as you can prove that you have a minimum of 9840.00 euros of income per year through investments, savings or pensions. After 5 years of living in Portugal you can apply for citizenship, but you will need to pass a Portuguese language test after studying A1 & A2 level Portuguese. Hope this helps, good luck :)

[@samuelh4177]

@OKportugal Hi guys, thank you for your reply it is really helpful. I assume the income for D7 you only need proof of income for one year? That would probably be the best one for me or the D2 so I will look into both. Thanks again, much appreciated!

[@salmanzafar1976]

Cleaning… There might be hard work involved but most likely is clearance of timber. Such stone houses can’t really be renovated rather rebuilt so the price is way too high. Nothing to do with the video maker, I believe not his choice to set the price. His efforts of showing the property so well must be appreciated. Amazing video. Property at a bad price though. He make amazing videos and wether sellers want to price it at whatever is not his issue I believe. He have made videos and ads of many reasonable properties too.

I'm guessing that the 100m² is considering that the barn has two floors now (actually one and a half). So they're saying it has 50m² per floor, if adding the third floor would make it 150m². It also has permission for a separate new build of 250m² in the nature park area of the property.

Summer in Portugal is from June to September and this video was filmed at the end of June (Summer). The river runs in the winter but the fresh water spring runs all year round. In all of the properties I've filmed in Central Portugal over the last 5 years I have yet to see a dry well. Perhaps its more common in the Algarve region where there is severe drought. The native people haven't left Central Portugal. It is full of villages, towns and cities! Loads of people are moving here due to the low cost of housing and high quality of life. It sounds like you are possibly regurgitating stuff you've overheard or read without actually knowing what youre talking about.

These kind of properties are everywhere in Portugal, but are pretty much worthless without proper up-to-date, modern political views on society. One should be able to convert such a property in a full size home or business. What is the use of a 15m2 old barn in 2024? Make Portuguese people dream again, and yes, that comes with foreign investments as well. Create communities where businesses can flourish with respect to nature and Portuguese culture. It's really no use regarding these kind of marvelous places as relics from the past.
