Re: Lawyer Recommendations Please Sept 2018

I can also highly recommend Maria. She is our lawyer who helped us purchase a property in 2016 and arranged our Wills in 2017. Goes over and above and always responds in a timely manner despite her busy schedule.

Good luck with your purchase....we have never looked back :-)

Re: rentals

Hi

There are a lot of owners who still use Owners Direct/HomeAway/Holiday Lettings. I have an apartment in Monte Dourado and advertise on HomeAway ref 6505870.

I hope this helps.

Re: smart currency exchange

All
Always good to get recommendations first hand - I will be using Transferwise going forward rather than NatWest!

Webber Q1400 Electric BBQ

Hi

Does anybody know where I can purchase one of these in the Algarve?

Has anybody used BBQ's Algarve in Almancil? When you click to checkout get a message about website security certificate, so have not proceeded.

Thanks in advance :D

Thanks for that. We hope to come out for a week in October to have a look around and visit a couple of estate agents.
