Dear Mr:
In Portugal, as in almost any other country in the world, you need signatures
As well as contracts so that cons and mischiefs can be avoided
I don't know whom you're working with but that person isn't proceeding in the best way possible
I strongly advise you to handle the matter in a more serious and rigorous way
I take this chance to inform you that we have a real estate agency which works in the entire country and if you need our help feel free in contacting us.
