You'd make a great News Anchor for any local Television station. Stir up your gift! Blessings!! ❤️

This is a good video!!! I definitely know what you mean about being able to hear other units because when I was living in PR it was like that too. But this information is valuable. I know I’m taking notes before I move over there.

[@JuliesCuration]

Thank you, Michael! Just a matter of time before you’ll be embarking on your apartment hunting journey!

[@clewis9223]

Thank you so much, this was extremely helpful as I need to find a place in 1 week. I was planning to do the short stays as well to get a feel for each neighbourhood I was interested in.

It sounds great after hearing your advice! because I am going there in may!

[@faraboverubieskerry]

Hi Julie, Thanks for the informative video. :) It was very helpful. You confirmed what I've been hearing...about the presence of mold since apartments there are not insulated. Unfortunately, I cannot live with that under any circumstances from a health perspective. Did you live in any newer places outside of Lisbon that were insulated and not damp? I know there has to be a new build community somewhere but I have not been able to find any info online yet.

"I'll show you the usable footage." That part made me laugh out loud!

Awesome tips!!! Thank you 😊

Olá! I'm moving next week to Lisboa and been hunting on Idealista for like 2-3 months now, I have to find a one-year contract. I hope to find something convenient for my needs. I lived in London and boy I had those bad neighbors experiences so I totally can relate on your earlier termination of lease.. Thank you for your tips!

[@JuliesCuration]

Congratulations on the move! Safe travels.

@@JuliesCuration Thank you!

You are a blessing sister

another great video!

[@JuliesCuration]

Thank you!

[@linealinn4970]

I found that negotiating the price is hard especially when the apartment is popular. They will ask how much we can offer despite the given price and if someone offer more price than the listing, you will keep on dreaming on about that apartment.

[@adhekeoghenekome9834]

Hi. Please can you share a link to sites where apartments are on display in Portugal?

[@josepha.r5839]

Good video. At 12:15, Tip 4 you mention getting in touch with an agent. Am I correct you mean agencies such as Century 21 or ReMax? Is there a finder's fee? Do you have a for-fee connection to discuss this and other topics?

Have you stopped do videos?

[@TiffiniTravels]

Can you recommend the lawyer you used to review your leasing contract, I am planning a move to Portugal officially next year, but will be visiting for two months this year and will like to get some suggestions. This video really helped. Thank you.

[@Naijagirlinportugal]

New subscriber here 😊 I’ll be in Lisbon Portugal by September for PhD studies. Any idea where I can get cheap apartments in Lisbon?

[@parveensaini4250]

I am going with idealista they didn’t response by email or call also , hardly if they pick up asking for gruanter . We have residency card. No one help us

[@corsicawoods7395]

I work via ethernet instead of wifi. Do they set up ehternet connections there? I'm sure at additional cost but When finding a long term rental do i have authority to set that connection up?

[@jsoxendine]

Great job…did seem a little rushed, but you still provided helpful information for my spring visit…

[@ade2666]

Thanks much Julie.

[@rachelkieffer8707]

I finally arrived to Lisbon yesterday and will start my apartment search, so your tips are just on time! It can feel overwhelming to plan to locate to another country and continent but I feel like Lisbon is calling me...

[@JesseWifeBot]

Same here!!

[@dalexxa]

So would you say Airbnb are no good???

[@Gee-Natasha]

The lawyer reco was a good tip. How did you find your lawyer being new to the city/country?

[@JuliesCuration]

I googled law firms, read through their websites, looked at reviews, and emailed firms I had additional questions for.

[@danjumawakawa8862]

Hi Julie, Thanks for making this great video, it had some useful tips. I just have one question. You mentioned to have a lawyer go over a contract before signing. Can you recommend a lawyer that I can use? I am not in Portugal and I having a hard time getting a lawyer that can look over my lease contract and possibly help with getting a NIF

[@fistsup5700]

I have heard a lot of talk about the mold issue in Portuguese apartments and homes. The homes are built to keep the places cool in summer, but in winter, mold is a serious issue. As an asthmatic who is very allergic to mold...this is a big issue for me. Need to rethink my plan... As a video editor, I can assure you, multiple sessions of shooting and editing is typical. And painful. But you got the video done!

[@Evettecord]

What can you do to prevent mold from coming in? And I would have to move once there’s mold, how are the owners when you need to leave in that situation and break the lease?

[@tigerareyouthere]

Everybody uses a dehumidifier to prevent mold

[@MoonMidnight3]

Omg awesome! I’m also a single mom and my child is 6. How old is your son and I’d get or will he be attending a local public school? I love your channel.

[@PennyGetsItTogether]

Hi Julie, SO much good information packed into a short video. I actually LOL when you said, “I’m already over this video, and I haven’t even started recording yet.” Hahaha 😂 Hilarious. I have heard a few people say negotiate price~putting that in my back pocket. Until next video. 🤗

[@JuliesCuration]

Happy New Year, Penny! Lol the ridiculousness didn’t stop with this video. For some reason it took 4 hours to upload to KZbin when it never takes that long. Maybe 30 minutes at most. I was so close to tossing it for good lol. Glad you found it helpful.

[@PennyGetsItTogether]

@@JuliesCuration Happy New Year! 🥳 Really glad you didn’t toss it out.

Hi, we are looking to visit this spring and was wondering if possible to get EU Vaccine Passport if we are in US? Without it, do we have to get a Covid Antigen test everyday in order to go to restaurants and tourist places? Thanks!

Are there 'apartment hunters' in Portugal (pay locals to find an apartment)?

[@relaxationcomediesmemes2953]

How do you actually cope there? They don't usually speak English How do you talk to the people?

[@sakhawathusain2425]

Can I have the contact details of your lawyer. Also what are the charges you had to pay for him/her to review the contract?

[@independenciafinanceiraref169]

Great info 😊Could you please provide the name of your lawyer? Thanks
