I agree with everyone's comment. I have a cousin, that asked me to research her Grandmother's land in Pico. Her Grandmother died over 7 years ago. At the time when her grandmother died my cousin got a lawyer to look into the property and was told that the property was worthless.
When she asked me to look into the property a few years ago. The people named on the Title or to take care of the property were all dead. I asked a surviving sister of the brother who was one of them to take care of property about the property. She is old and could not remember. It is important to put everything in WRITING. And have in WRITING A contingent, when the person named is dead what happen to the property etc. Do not assume that the land or money is going to be there waiting for you to claim it. I have a question?? I thought a few years ago that land that was abandon for a certain amount of time that the Portuguese Government took the land and gave it or sold it. Is this true?
