As a formerly licensed (retired) Residential Home Inspector, I have some advice. The one thing that masonry will always do, whether from expansion and contraction or settling, is, crack. That being said, and just from the video, I don't care what the reason is that caused that structural damage, after all, it is damaged. If I was looking to buy that property, I would give it a hard "NO". By the way, local codes, if they exist, might allow the proximity of well and septic. residential building codes where I live, mandate a 100 ft. (30.48 m.) separation..
Your comments would be beneficial to all the videos. PT doesn't have property inspectors which for Americans is highly unusual. Too bad folks couldn't hire you to inspect their potential property buys....many people do it for peace of mind as well as having impartial truth telling opinions.
"I have some advice. The one thing that masonry will always do, whether from expansion and contraction or settling, is, crack." so what is the cause of this crack? give us your opinion we respect u cause you spent a lot of time studying these.
In Portugal, church bells stop sounding at 10 pm and stay off until at 7 am. Thought I would point this out so that whomever is interested in this property, knows that they will not be bothered with the sounds between those hours.
Not really. It depends on where you are. Some villages ring their church bells at all hours, including nighttime, so this is worth investigating.
Thanks I did not know this
@@johnnyd.7998 I have a property in northern Portugal and also in central Portugal and in both places it is not allowed to have church bells sound past 10 pm. I assume it's a national law and if in other towns they're still on past 10pm, someone should make a complaint. I would !!
@@johnnyd.7998 I can confirm this. I have stayed in villages in Portugal where the bell rings all night and it is a nightmare if you're too close
I'm living in the US now, but I lived for awhile in a small city in the north of Portugal and I loved the church bells, I miss it a lot.
Kenster, i so appreciate your buyer's eye and fair, thorough views and opinions of your property tours. It's so helpful of you and Gina to produce these vids and kind of your clients to share them with curious viewers and others considering a home in Portugal.
I would definitely investigate the situation of the church bell. Some villages in Portugal ring their bells through the night, and that would be a huge deal breaker for me.
Yes for sure. Imagine lying in bed and being woken every 15 minutes by bells 😅
@@OKportugal 😬🙉
and no sleeping in on Sunday mornings either with bells ringing for I don't know how long. (but to be honest, it is just what you're used too I guess. I'd rather have church bells than a mosque calling for prayer early in the morning. I have always lived close to churches and I don't even hear it - except for the longer calls on Sunday or christian holidays.)
Binge watched all your vids. Look forward to all your posts.
I love your style and care making these tours for us. Please continue.
That was a nice piece of property. A little tlc and wow. Well maintained. At a fair price. Ken , you made this property shine with the vlog. Well done my friend. Harriet and Jim. Richmond, Va.
We add family home that was 30 years old and cracks were every were through out the house they are surface cracks in the rendering, nothing to worry about from my understanding. We did sell that home to a young family and they did a wonderful job were they removed wall tiles through out the first floor fixed all the cracks and installed laminate floor over the tiles floors. Of course the home add no central heating and wood doors and single pain windows so we purchase a new home with the current construction codes and heating system as we intend to spend our winters in Portugal. Cheers from Niagara Region On Canada
You have done very well with the presentation thnx a mil
Your videos are beyond outstanding, Ken. I am a subscriber, and the more I watch them, the more I fall in love with Portugal. This is a nice property and the views are breathtaking. I am looking to move and Portugal is moving up on shortlist.
Hey thanks Rajesh, I really appreciate it. So glad to hear that people are connecting with our videos and find them inspiring. All the best to you :)
Again a great video and informative, love the new measuring device ❤️❤️
Hey thanks Nick, yeah its great to have the laser measure now. Just getting used to using it while filming now :D
Burrow hole and septic tank next to each other? Not a very good idea, high possibility of future water contamination. You'd need to regularly test the water.
Yes I imagine it's not a good idea if it was a shallow well next to a shallow septic tank. A borehole is very deep through rock into an aquifer.
Great Video Ken thanks for sharing 👍
Great job, Ken. Thanks for showing this... perfect place except for all 5hose cracks! I would make it a tropical gardens around the house!
Hi Ken its great your able to view & film property's for a pertential buyer's!
I'd be very concerned about the many cracks going on in this home!
I'm from a long line of different UK trade's man & my late husband was a carpenter who was very knowledgeable &
We have built homes in Australia & can say the balcony rail height is illegal !
Take care 🥰
You can't say the balcony is illegal, when you don't know nothing about the laws in there!!!
You said well you build houses in England and Australia...
If was illegal the council wouldn't aloud that.
Great video, rather odd house, the cracks are worrying
Yes it's a unique house for sure. I think possibly the downstairs, with all of that parking out front, was previously a shop or something, with the living accommodation set above.
You make good and honnest tour ! Thank you !
that kitchen makes me want to up and move to Portugal.
Nice house, and the view out is amazing!
Thanks Ken. We love watching your videos. You cover all the bases. Well done. We have always dreamed of moving to Portugal. Perhaps one day. We have subscribed and will continue to enjoy ! Thanks from Canada Manny and Carol !
So many cracks in the plaster. That’s some major movement in the building. I actually had this property on my list. So thanks, I can cross it off now. I’m guessing it’s getting way to much vibration from the road way or possibly ground shift . Those cracks in the bathroom actually going horizontal ( opposite all the others ) is scary. It is a beautifully presented home but I’d be very worried because those cracks have developed after the painting and refreshing.
Heavy traffic indeed can be a culprit. I have seen that in my house too: usually they would empty the septic tank with a lighter tractor. One day the ground was too wet so they had to take out the big equipment and a spontaneous crack from bottom to roof appeared. Mind you, this house was from 1870 and up until that day there were absolutely no cracks, even though our soil is peet so very soft.
Thank You! 🌀❤️🌀
Another great well filmed and informative vid Ken, thanks!
Perhaps the vast open area needs more structural pillars to keep the first level more secure and prevent the cracks. Not sure
Definitely needs a professional opinion to make sure it's not going to become a bad problem
*Great channel* 😎
I like the video,s.
wow..dream house
The village's name is Catraia Cimeira. Half of my family comes from a nearby village.
It's a beautiful area 😊👍
I actually love the tile.
It's very traditional and I'm sure a lot of people will love them. 😊
There looked like there were some large cracks in the garage and on top of the garage door outside. The amount of the cracks is a concern. Great video!!
Thanks Nancie, yes it was concerning. I definitely advice anyone interested in this place to get a survey done.
Nothing structural, just surface cracks from settling, my house in Portugal has numerous of those cracks and it can simply be recovered with cement and painted...good luck
Very nice, but I might have missed how it was heated for winter? The cracks are a bit worrisome, would definitely want an integral structural sound professional opinion.
Beautiful house, but quite large.
Yes it's a lot of house!
You need the services of a structural engineer to assess the integrity of the house. The cracks are scary and do not look to be superficial or cosmetic. It might be even be advisable to raze the house down, shore up the land, compact it properly and build the structure over it. The views are fantastic. It's the saving grace for me aside from the presence of modern day conveniences such as nearby hotels, restaurants, church, supermarket, accessible electricity, municipal water (although there is a borehole present), good internet access and nice roads.
Yes. Those cracks are very concerning. One should absolutely have a structural engineer investigate. I'm no fan of the floor plan either. It looks as if each different area is an add on or an afterthought. If I could afford it, I'd raze it and start over again.
I would have an engineer taking a look of those cracks because if wasn't caused by an earthquake then was for something else, the house I have in Portugal is almost 40 years old built by an idiot who took an advantage of an emigrant (my father-in-law) and has no cracks. That kitchen if was mine all the tiles would be removed and a new modern kitchen with a slide door to the patio. If the engineer gives the green light I would negotiate the price because all the cracks need attention which includes new painting, replacing all the windows and doors to insulate ones.
Yes the cracks worried me too. Definitely get someone to look into them if you intend to buy this property
Those cracks mean that the foundations are moving and the bricks inside the walls have cracked open but concerns me more an old building, flat or villa that shows none. I love that area, been there sometimes doing some paragliding but would prefer either upstream (Tagus) Vila Velha de Rodão or downstream (Tagus) in Vila Nova da Barquinha.
If there are no earthquakes in this region, then the cracks come from the lowering of the house on the church side - there the draining surface water meets the house foundation, ... which is WITHOUT an insulation of the foundation and WITHOUT a TRAINAGE! That can be remedied, .. digested, ... isolate from water + put on the TRAINAGE. The cracks at the inner walls can also be closed with fleece!
Thanks Ken. The land looks manageable..the house needs children, dogs
Nice place!
Nice really big, lots of potential, you get so much for ur money. If the cracks aren't visible down stairs ide say drying shrinkage not subsidence
Great point!
Those are not settlement cracks. GF structure looks good.
Cracks are due to horizontal thrust of sloping roof. The walls are thin, 4" look like. No provision made for horizontal thrust from the sloping roof. Can be fixed though.
I am a civil, structural engineer.
Thanks for the tips. I'm a videographer and have no engineering experience so I just try to report what I see :)
We do have a service for our clients where we can get professional surveys done if they are worried about any issues like this.
Very nice house for the asking price , well done Ken .
What do you think of the price for this house , like it ?
I think it's a good price for a lot of house, but I would get someone to inspect the cracks and see if it's something serious or just skin deep.
@@OKportugal indeed , solid inspection to get clarity about .
Im curious about the roof, I've seen from previous videos that the Portuguese use concrete roof beams. Are these re-enforced? are they something you can buy or are they formed in-situ during construction?
They are re- enforced and you can buy them.
It looks like a grocery or restaurant with the parking lot.
They should hire a home stager to even make a nicer touch
stunning property for two hundred CAD, 11pm 11chime from the chrurch
why do protugese have so many ticks being a recovering catholic understand the clinging remnants I see a self sustaining greenhouse on this ripe for & pristine peice of land
Bell going off would be a dealbreaker
Looks a nice area, the main bedroom is the best room the rest needs a lot of work, outside space is ok but is way to open not at all private which is a shame, price is a bit steep as well l feel, the cracks is a worry but l know there is always a lot of movement in houses in Portugal and spain due to the ground movement but can also mean shoddy workmanship that can happen a lot over there, and being so close to a 4G tower would be an issue for me
I like my privacy too 😊 maybe the new owners could plant tall hedges around the perimeter for more privacy.
Honestly it’s very cheap considering all the land you’re getting.
I guess this has sold long ago Ken right? Never saw a washer/drier anywhere.
Hi Roda, sorry I dont know, we filmed this for a private buyer and arent involved in the actual sale or anything. We did put the agents details in the video deswcription if you would like to contact them to ask. All the best & good luck for your property search :)
Hey there Ken is this property still for sale, can we get some details of the agent ?
Hi Ken & Jenny Love your video's and decided to visit is it possible to have chat about relocating??? Allen
This might not be the right place to ask this but I don't know who to ask. Do you have to be vaxxed in order to live in Portugal?
No.
@@kappa2ou3 really!? Do you live in Portugal? Is anything limited by not being vaxxed? I only have till end of October if I wanna leave Canada. Appreciate your help!
@@ArtaRajabi yes I do ! You just need a negative test but if you want to avoid the test, it is better to have the certificate.

Has this house already been sold?
the house is moving
Detailed video…..great location and well placed property but not worth the quoted price.
Does the furniture stay?
What is the name of that measuring app you using if you are
Is not an app but a laser distance measurer
It has structural foundation problems….
helo sir
🤔
Have watched several of your videos and all but the most expensive houses are weirdly laid out with many of them giving the appearance of haphazard additions and remodeling. Living in them would be awkward at best. The kitchen in this house is simply awful with that bizarre wallpaper clashing horribly with the floor tile and the oven/range tucked into the corner and just too much furniture. I notice also that most stairways in the houses you show have no handrails at all.
Another channel becoming a estate agent?
Hardly. Ken is providing a valuable service to potential buyers. His opinion is not only his own, it's honest and points out the good, bad and ugly of any property. Plus, if you pay attention, he makes it very clear (even for the hard of thinking) he gets no fee or commission from the sale. By using his filming, video editing and presentation skills, especially when it's still complicated to travel, I wish him good luck and I'm sure HIS clients are extremely grateful.
@@bertiew6771 i don't know. Channel is about something else. If I would looking for some property I know where to go.
No thank you .
