Many thanks Alf 1953 for your good wishes. Yes it has been long winded, but hopefully, onward and upward, let's hope it doesn't take too long. I am told that this route is faster than if I had been able to take this to court myself, although the poor start hasn't been hopeful. Will keep you posted. ...

Hi Folks, and to anyone who has shown an interest in the injustice I have had at the hand's of my landlady and her family, here is what has happened. I came to Carvoeiro in February/March, for 3 weeks, and with the excellent help and support, once again of my, by now, 'trusted' friend, and builder C...

Yes Jaylay, it would appear Joanne53 is on the way to winning. You are right, it is the same place, and I would like to give all credit to the Carvoeiro Forum folks for their support. They alone have given me the courage to press onwards, I knew the law was on my side, but I needed to hear it from o...

Could someone tell who the knowledgeable Estate Agent is, sounds like he would be worth knowing, sand as I am looking for an Estate Agent anyway, I would prefer someone who is bi-lingual as well as up to date with happenings.
Thank you, Joanne

From Joanne. Thank you all once again. James Faro, no James you are not being sexist, what is sexist are the government officials who don't listen to a female as they would a male. You are correct, the stress has been severe, I have had heart surgery and been diagnosed with a lung disease whilst all...

To the Forum. I think you are all brilliant, and have come up with some good ideas, yes, even including walking away, as I have many times considered this measure, but I am BRITISH, and don't usually give up until I am lay on the floor bleeding to death, and even then........., well, never day die. ...

Thank you to the people who replied the Landlord neglect keeps my business closed, you have been very supportive. I have spoken to a lawyer, and oh if it were only England I would have a clear strong cut case, and get results almost immediately, however ....... Upshot is, as I already knew, the law ...

Re: Landlord's neglect keeps my business closed. Thank you people for your time, you are very kind. Answers to solutions. I am between a rock and a hard place, as I cannot stop paying the rent as if no rent is received for three months, the Landlord can take the business back. The law seems to prote...

Buying a tresspasse was to buy the equivalent of what was in England a 999year lease, and at the time I bought it could have bought a 2 bedroom apartment or good piece of land. Yes it would seem easy to walk away but that is the only thing I own, ok not the building but the business, and if you rent...

I have a bar/restaurant bought in 1986 which I wish to sell. It is a trespasse, but I understand the law has changed. I can find nothing on the internet, and lawyers seem to give different answers, and agents selling bars on trespasse do not seem to have relevant information. Queries: What are the t...
