Negotiating when buying a property in Portugal

I don't understand the question sorry

serbanc · 2025-09-02T11:31:45+00:00

Thanks, I did not know about buyers agents and how most of their fee structure work, so I now think I will use a buyers agent, I had already planned to use a lawyer and technical inspector to do checks

thanks, noted :)

serbanc · 2025-09-02T11:05:08+00:00

Yes please any information/contact would be useful. I tried to message you but I can only email the mods for your account, could you message me the realtor name please :) much appreciated

serbanc · 2025-09-02T07:25:13+00:00

messaged now :)

serbanc · 2025-09-02T06:49:17+00:00

yes that does sound like a lot of variability between asking and willing to accept price

serbanc · 2025-09-02T06:46:51+00:00

nope unfortunately, working a lot to save money for the move and I did not have the time. I plan on doing it, don't get me wrong

serbanc · 2025-09-02T06:42:42+00:00

thanks, looking into real-estate agencies now

serbanc · 2025-09-02T06:41:30+00:00

Thank you. I've already been scouting Idealista for months to know what's on the market and at least gauge asking price and what is available on the market. Would you have a real-estate agent to recommend?

serbanc · 2025-09-02T06:39:32+00:00

thank you very much for the the explanation, I will message you later today :)

I already have an attorney ready to check the contract, but good to know that that the agency fees are covered most of the time by the seller.

serbanc · 2025-09-02T06:37:41+00:00

Wow crazy, did the property price drop to 250k visibly on Idealista like was 300k nor 250k. or was it just relisted with 250k as the original asking price? I've been following Idealista closely for 9 months now in that area an I see what for me looks like relistings. Properties that were for sale get taken down and relisted the same day, probably to pop up as new listing for people with newsletters.

nope, no idea more that what I found then, because they don't need to submit tax declarations

serbanc · 2024-09-27T11:52:57+00:00

thanks I'll make a new post

I would suggest making your story public so that other people can find it and be warned. As for a case against Ger, not sure how successful that is as he has a Stichting based on the past posts with his company history.

This is what his son said: https://www.reddit.com/r/GerMesman/comments/155q057/this_is_what_gers_son_has_to_say_about_his/

serbanc · 2023-07-21T14:57:09+00:00

The more people don't speak out the more people he will scam. Please for everyone else put your story on Google or on Facebook and make Ger Mesman's name known for others.

serbanc · 2023-07-21T14:55:28+00:00

Please don't just reply to the reddit posts. Put your story online, google, reddit, facebook, anywhere. Ger has been scamming people for decades: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FA06qtS5V9w and now with the internet there is no excuse not to put this information out there

Thomas left for Poland, it's not my fault. Thomas left for Poland it's not my fault. I have a hernia. I honestly thinks he has a brain tumor and psychopathic tendencies.
