Hello all! 

I moved to Armacao de Pera 2 weeks ago with my pup. Born near Phila., went to school there and worked there til 10 years ago. Then moved to Honolulu and Savannah for jobs. Retired this past April, sold my house in May and visited Portugal for 3 weeks in June. Knew I wanted to retire in the Algarve.

Wanted to say "hello". Look forward to meeting some of you, and this resource will be very helpful as I settle and questions arise

Hi, we have a rural property on the outskirts of Armacao and are looking to redesign the outside space to incorporate a hot tub or plunge pool, outdoor kitchen, and patio area and repaint the exterior of the house. We need someone to help us design, gain necessary permissions and complete the work.  And as we don't live in Portugal full-time oversee when we aren't here, communicating with us regularly. Any recommendations please....need to be English speaking as sadly our Portuguese is pitiful at the moment! Thanks.  Sue

Hi, I’m coming to stay in Vila Gale Nautico on 26th May but I’m not sure if the hotel will cater for vegans so I’m wondering if there are any restaurants or cafes that offer vegan options? Thanks

My wife and I are considering purchasing an apartment for cash in Armação de Pêra. We are interested in recommendations regarding making offers, choosing a lawyer, choosing a bank in Armação de Pêra & transferring money from UK.

Hello everyone

We recently purchased a property near Armacao de Pera. We are planning to make some minor alterations and need to get planning permission from the Town Hall in Silves. We were advised to contact an architect for assistance with this. 

The architect manages the project, drawing up the plans but also submitting them and ensuring all permissions are in place on behalf of the client. But the architect fees are substantial - a very large percentage of our budget.

Obviously we want to do everything by the book so that we are fully legal going forwards. 

But in a practical sense, the works don’t really need architect drawings. A good builder can do these minor works without a full set of drawings.

We have managed to obtain planning permission for works in other locations by submitting our own drawings directly to the local authority. 

Does anyone know what the legal requirements are? Do you need to have a full set of architect drawings to apply for planning permission?

If not, I would guess it is very difficult as a lay person (especially not speaking Portuguese) to navigate this mine field without assistance, so maybe there’s someone out there who has experience and can advise?

Or maybe there are even firms who can take on the permissions process for you in an administrative role using our own drawings - thereby avoiding the full expense of the architect?

Any advice will be really gratefully received.
