I may go to Hawaii soon.Madeira is the European Hawaii. 

They flip houses routinely, buy at the master commissioner sale fairly often(courthouse steps), have the capability to pay with cash and close quickly.

Reason for Non GMC it is not allowed in the european market .Not sure if you have an understanding of the commodities market but you just can't say we are growing corn without knowing what corn you are talking about . another example Corn " basic  $3 .00 per bushel   GMO for greater yeild  $3.25 per bushel Non GMO specialty  $ 3.50 per bushel Other questions to ask are :        Are you renting the land at a flat rate per Tillable acre ?

Now, I'd prefer a "European Option" (nothing to do with Europe) the option runs over the term but can only be exercised within a time stated in the future, like the last 90 days.

I have heard that on average, by floating the legal expenses your yield can be reduced to about 9%.If you foreclose, the property will be sold by the master commissioner to the highest bidder and you are paid from the proceeds of the sale.

I have had conversations with several Foreclosure Commissioners, and at one time attended a free seminar by the courts for this process, but it just does not come up with my client base.I even worked for about a year with a company that focuses on REO's, but due to the high cost of properties, and the typical appreciation seen in this market, virtually all are bought at auction by the lenders, who then put them on the market through the MLS and sit on them until they get very near market price.

I base this on the fact that Lehmann has business in the European countries and supposedly (Europe) is gonna be the (comparatively) LEAST impacted continents worldwide when we encounter the Great Depression... - Again, my opinion :-)CheersRam

Regarding contacting local government - I've been contacting codes, county commissioner, and county mayors office for several years.
