Some people were asking about the fees : they start from €3,000 per year which includes fibre internet, swimming pool cleaning, garden services etc. I reckon that's fairly reasonable to be honest.

Great videos Nick, we want to move to Portugal next year. We spent three weeks past summer in Portugal and eight days in Albufiera. We love Algarve a lot. The question we have after watching your video is about common fees when you buy apartment on the golf course. Do you know ball park number for these fees comparing with fees at the regular apartments.

A very good question! I was chatting to a close friend who is in QDL and he reckons it’s €100K a year to run his house there. (Council taxes, insurances, landscaping, pool maintenance, various strata fees and multiples of other expenses) His house is breathtaking, but it’s not in the top quarter of the properties in QDL! 😳 I think on average, as a rough guide, the fees for those Golf developments are double the monthly costs of ones just 1500m up the road. Fine whilst you have an income, but perhaps worth thinking through how this will play when you retire.
