  • Hi Guys!
    This video touches on why we feel Real Estate in the Azores is still affordable, and why a lot of people are starting to discover these islands. We feel that the future is bright in the Azores & the rest of Portugal, but your plan needs to be analyzed & calculated.
    We share 2 property tours of a couple of properties that are available for sale, it will give you a good idea on what a rustic fixer upper is all about.
    Stay tune to the end of the video as we share own own experience of the property we bought and renovated in the last 3 years.
    We feel that from this video you will get a very good idea on what is going on at the moment in the Real estate here on the islands.
    We hope you enjoyed this video, love having you with us on our journey.
    Carlos & Laura
    xoxo

    Can’t believe it’s been 3 years! I’ve been watching from the beginning and before we had even gone to Portugal. We’d love to visit the Azores next.

    Hey, could you make a video about local people mentality, values, relation between local - foreigners, integration, as for example how to get accepted to the local community and stuff like that

    Hello Carlos, I'm Paulo born in the Azores but living in the US for many years and I'm thinking of moving back for retirement.
    Would you share the price of each property you filmed?
    Thank you 🙏

    I the case of paint peeling, we were told it is the salts in the sand when it is not flushed out properly, since it comes from the sea, and not in the cement. When they mix the cement with the sand it becomes one and then it blisters like that. We did a new build in manhenha and have had no blistering. Then again it was built by my brother, a master at his trade. Enjoy your stay.

      That is exactly correct, Lucilia. I think the people/workers have the option to use higher quality sands, but decide against it in order to save money. It's good if you not only have an expert doing the job, but an expert that cares. Take acre!

    Thanks for the house tours. To be honest, it might be better to tear down and build new houses - except for the adegas.

    Great video Carlos thank you, 😢I just got back to Toronto and I already miss it can’t wait to go back. I just spent 3 1/2 weeks there and loved every second of it.

      Thank you for watching, glad you enjoyed it. You start missing the island, even before you leave. Weird, but true! Take care, Sergio.

    I live in Fiji. One of the costly parts of island living is travel cost. From Fiji it costs $700-2000 to get anywhere off the islands. What does it cost to reach the azores?

    Do you find your price assessments for what to expect for 70k, 150k, 250k are the same for Sau Miguel as well? Thanks!

    • @ourjourneyonpicoisland-car552
      @ourjourneyonpicoisland-car552  Před měsícem

      There are budgets for everyone. The less expensive properties will need a lot more work. The island of Sao Miguel would have more to choose from. Not easy finding properties ready to move in for under 150,000. Cheers!

    Thanks for the good videos. Do you know if houses usually have a lot of indoor air problems? Some houses look moldy in the pictures.

    • @ourjourneyonpicoisland-car552
      @ourjourneyonpicoisland-car552  Před 3 měsíci +1

      Thank you for watching, glad you enjoyed them. The houses that have a lot of humidity problems are the older houses built with thick lava stones or the newer block houses built by low quality workers. All this can be controlled & fixed with heating units, dehumidifiers, fire places and the most important top quality insulation. I hope this helps. Cheers!

    You didn’t give us the price of both properties. Thank you for the video. I’m from Serra Da Estrela and looking for a simple place by the sea.

    • @ourjourneyonpicoisland-car552
      @ourjourneyonpicoisland-car552  Před 5 měsíci +1

      Hi Gina! Yes, we did give the prices. It was at the end of the video, we used 2 big titles with the location and price. Here on the islands, it's simplicity at its best. Take care!

    Tell me what are the seven regions of Portugal?

    • @ourjourneyonpicoisland-car552
      @ourjourneyonpicoisland-car552  Před 5 měsíci +1

      Here they are, the 7 amazing regions of Portugal. The Northern region, the Center region, the Lisbon region, the Alentejo region, the Algarve region, and the autonomous regions of the Azores and Madeira. It would be great to visit all of them on 1 single trip! I hope this helped you! Cheers!
