New life, old village: a home in Moldova for less than €1000

Moldovan explorer Cristian Panuta buys and repairs abandoned houses in a remote Moldovan village at the border with Ukraine.
In Pohrebea, Nata Albot, a well-known Moldovan journalist and event producer, is fixing her 100-year-old house with horse manure. She created a platform for those interested in renovating and buying old houses. With nearly 50,000 members, the Facebook group "Mă mut la țară" ("I am moving to the countryside" in Romanian) surprisingly hit the spot.
"People call me, they send me messages, they ask me questions about buying and fixing houses," Nata says.

    All old houses in post-soviet countries didn't have kitchen or toilets, they did their business outside in a small room kind of toilet and the food was made on old stoves inside one of the bedrooms.

    Nu e corect sa spui că în toate casele post sovietice casele erau fără wc ,pentru că cu toții am trecut prin asta .

    How big is the plot of land where the old house is? Maybe I can buy the old house then rebuilt it with a big modern house?

    Hey brother, Do you know if there's any chance I could buy a Moldovan village property from abroad? I would like to buy a house now when its cheap. And start to find people who want to plant a garden and restore it in exachange for living there for free. And maybe after some years or in a year I will come. I'd like to get in contact if youre available Thanks

    Hi! Thank you for your comment. Usually, you can find houses on sale driving around the town. Or even asking the local municipalities. Or you can check out their real estate website: 999.md/ro/list/real-estate/house-and-garden?hide_duplicates=no&applied=1&show_all_checked_childrens=no&ef=40,41,39&eo=12900,13859,12912,12885&o_41_1=776&r_39_2_from=&r_39_2_to=2000&r_39_2_unit=eur or join this Facebook group: facebook.com/groups/ma.mut.la.tara.md

    Who said they need visitors? It's a queit place near river, with great view, were you buy an entire house for the price of 1sqm in the city. Of course it requires renovation but in the end you can have a nice cabin when you need some rest from the city noise.

    @@Andrew-wb9kg really ?? Buying a house because it's just a quiet place? Moldova has a lot of villages where you can buy not just one but many more houses for a quiet place. Actually Moldova itself has become too quiet, as long as has hardly 2 millions people.

    @@expresserofideas2349 You are buying a quiet place which is likely to stay quiet and eventually be part of the EU but there are risks obviously - one of which is the Ukraine conflict. Another is the infrastructure may not ever get fixed up
