[QUOTE="Old McDonald, post: 7089437, member: 47276"] We have a minimum price which we will accept. Anyone asking to view is advised of that price prior to confirming the proposed date and time. We are not disclosing this minimum to all and sundry, but under present circumstances of volatility of travel arrangements consider it is only fair to a prospective purchaser before they travel. There is a general feeling that property prices may well increase in this area and if we do not sell in the near future would want to take advantage of any rise. We could give you €6000 luck money, or you could make an offer of €6000 less than our minimum if you wanted to disclose you are a TFF member at the time of making the offer. So far as I am aware I do not personally know any member. I have had exchanges of personal messages with a few but I do not know them apart from two whose real names I now know. I would also know if a member uses their own name for signing in on the forum, but I claim to be honest and am prepared to pay as posted. If someone wants to be ultra-careful then do not tell me you are a TFF member until after you make the arrangements to view and I have disclosed the minimum price. We had anticipated that we would receive a similar enquiry to yours when deciding to make the offer of a gift to someone introducing the buyer. The amount (actually it is 2% of the sale price so more than €6000) is the same as we would be paying to one place where we have an advert so the net amount to us is no different if the introduction came from that ad. We gain the offered amount if it is a buyer via one of the places where we have paid up front for the ad, but have also incurred a cost. We left the private offer only with TFF for July then spread the word about it to a number of people after the beginning of this month. Some of them have told further friends so it is now an open offer to an unknown number of people to find a buyer for us. It is a cheap way for us to advertise around the world. There are a lot of immigrants from various countries in inland Central Portugal already and some are saying that folks they know in the cities are keen to get out. There are also certain countries where a lot of people are looking to move. South Africa was suggested to us by a neighbour who originates there and we have had considerable interest from a series of ads in the SA Farmers’ Weekly, ending with this week’s issue. We are hopeful of obtaining more than our minimum because there is a lot of interest from people who, due to possible quarantine, are not keen to travel unless necessary. We have adverts in some countries where people are able to travel to Portugal and not need to quarantine when they return home - not Brazil because of the high infection rates there. We have limited ads in other countries, but ready to go with more if the air corridors are opened from more countries. As an example Denmark opened a couple of weeks ago and we are in discussion for an ad there. We placed one in Norway, which then imposed a return quarantine, but we are still receiving numerous “hits” and limited further enquiries.
