Hello,
Love your videos! We are in Phoenix( Gilbert) and plan on selling and moving to Lagos or Tavira.
I love your idea of air bnb s
You mentioned that you booked six weeks or suggested that as a good amount of time in each place. How did you get the cost down to $1500 a month? When I look at Airbnb‘s around September it looks much much higher than that. Also we have two dogs. Two small ones. Our final goal is to buy our own place when we are certain of where we want to be.
Can you give some advice about finding Airbnb‘s in that price range? Did you rent for a few days and then negotiate a longer time or did you contact them upfront and negotiate a lower price? Also you bought a car. We would like to do that. Are you using your US drivers license?
Hi!!! And the north of Portugal?
Yeah I did this a few months ago when I was researching options. I was super surprised how good of an option this was. Nice 3 bedroom house for $1k a month. I was planning on doing this for 3 months, then leave and go to another region like Asia for 3 months and then return. That way I could get a great understanding if Portugal is right and if so, where…
Depending on which VFS office you have to go through for your D7, Airbnb may not be allowed. Also, you'll need a 12 month lease for your SEF appointment.
I love your energy. I'll be in Portugal for 30 days in September. I'll go between Lisbon Madeira Algarve. Considering Air BnB vs hotel. I'm 50 so no hostel. Also traveling alone so safety is key. This was informative. Thanks
You are a beautiful couple and enjoy your channel but the music in the background is a bit distracting to me.
Ola Christie and Richard. My wife and I just discovered you channel and are enjoying your videos. Great information and useful as well. We are also planning on retiring in Portugal. I do have a question. What did you actually bring with when you moved to Portugal. With all you monthly moves will you be carrying much??? Thanks in advance. Stay safe and God bless.
During our visa process we too had to have a 6-12 month signed lease. We used an awesome service called Flatio that allows you to lease for mid to long term with very flexible cancellation options. I highly recommend it!
Hi! Very informative so thanks!! We've booked a hotel until we can find an apt…We plan on living in Lisbon only so Airbnb doesn't work for us. It's difficult to find something on line sight unseen so if you have any leads or advice please pass it on! Enjoy your next 6 months…Sounds fabulous!!
