    Interesting! Can you mention property taxes as they will be an ever-lasting, never-ending expense? And how big is the property? I notice many homes have postage stamp sized lots, a real pity. When one considers all that one can elect to do with $100K all around the world, it seems to come down to one word and that word is LOCATION. And you know better than the rest of us back in the States if it is indeed worth that amount of money. It also seems the world has indeed "discovered" Madeira and the days of bargains are over.

      You could take that view with you anywhere around the world. Ask yourself, are you able to live a fuller life, a life you envisioned, sooner somewhere else over where you're currently living? Could Madeira be it? Well, that's what Alan and his family are doing their best to show you :)

    • @ItllBeFun
      @ItllBeFun  2 года назад +3

      Ola Admin Desk,
      Great to hear from you as usual. We will add in the actual property sizes and property taxes when they are available. It is interesting to note that unlike the US exact room sizes and property dimensions are not always given. Which means most of the time they look you like, "why would you want to know that?". Anyway. Property taxes are kind the same way. We toured a house down the road last year that was owned by a man that lived most of his life in the USA. So the first thing he said when we met him was: "My property taxes are 8 euros a year". His house and location were so big and so good that in the USA they would have been 25k at least.
      Property has become very expensive here, just like everywhere else in the world. That part is no fun. So what you could have purchased a few years ago is now at least double. And people put random prices on property to see if someone will pay it. There is no Zillow to look and see what a fair price range might be.
      Have a wonderful day
      Leslie and Alan

I'm suspecting some of that is happening on the island, especially after examining home ownership rates and average annual incomes for local Madeirans. My comment relates to the market in general and not this one particular casita.
