are things so bad and so hopeless that you want to move into a wreck in a dead town in a foreign country? People have this romantic image of Italy which is true for some places there. But in Italy there are also shithole places that people leave. And investing there will not find buyers later.

From my perspective and understanding, it's a brilliant move by the local government. You start an international movement by bringing people from all over the world to renovate the worst of parts of the town at no cost to you. Plus, all of these people = more business for the locals and keeping the town alive.

@@2livenoob How selling properties in dying towns for a euro makes homes unaffordable? They are not limiting who can buy the properties, the locals if they wanted to could buy them. Even with auctions most went for a few thousand euros, and one for 20 000e. They are not sold at prizes the locals couldn't afford. The homes are in fact more affordable for Italians, they don't have hire translators, spend money on travel, and they are familiar with how things are done in Italy. Take example the town Sambuca 1:14, the population dropped from 8 000 to 5 000, and it was still dropping. The town has to have hundreds of empty homes, selling 60 of them is not going to make the property values skyrocket, especially if the starting price is 1 euro. You need to understand that these are old densely packed towns, the homes are small, and there is no space to expand. People looking at these homes are not looking for a mansion, nor can they renovate any of the buildings into one. These small sleepy towns are not attracting the ultra rich. The new people moving in, will need the local labour force to renovate the homes, they will eat in the local restaurants, they will shop in the local stores, and if they rent out their homes that'll bring tourists who in turn will spend money in the town.

Even when allowed back to the office, many people didn't, and many who did did so fewer times a week and continued to work from home a lot. Allowed for working from anywhere with internet, and being in an urban vs. commuter town or rural area being much more favourable than previously.

Until you realise that you'll have a low-wage menial job AND still a 2 hour per day commute and half your neighbours are old-fashioned boomers who only last year moved past throwing stones at you for cycling on sundays. The death-spiral of tiny villages is a bit more complicated than just housing prices. BTW, I paid € 500K for a 3 bedroom, 1 bathroom, 1 toilet and large attic house in Naarden, the Netherlands. Yet if they expected me to move there to Siciliy, or even one of the death-spiral villages here, you couldn't pay me to move there. And I'm a rathole 20K village myself. I mean, you yourself could've picked a $ 1 home in Detroit, but you didn't. Probably because you like to have work, don't like to get robbed weekly, don't like to see all your tax money sucked into a gaping hole called "This is the gap corporations left when they burned the place down", watch your kids get beaten up for being 'crackahs' weekly, get shot monthly and you prefer neighbours that are fewer than 100% hardcore racists who look at you funny all the time. So.... A tiny village full of old-fashioned boomers? No way. I grew up in such conditions and 18 years of watching people escape 'the fold' with booze and drugs, cycling 15 kilometers just to find something to do on the weekends, before listening to how this or that boomer guy fucked his own kids but the kids had the nerve to go to the police and ohnoes only now it's a scandal.....

In Philly, the prices ranges from 80k to 4 or 5 million. Depending on what neighborhood you're in. Because of gentrification, the prices are steadily increasing. Which is good. Higher house cost would mean better schooling, grocery stores and more money being pushed into the community. But, there's a lot that are being pushed out. So, you'll see an increase of crimes in other neighborhoods that you didn't before. Like in Northeast Philly. My mom said that it was a very nice place back in the 80s or 90s. It was considered where the rich people lived. But because of gentrification, she saw a change. But I was too young. So, I just take my mom's word for it.

I like how one of the Italians looks like Al Pacino & Dustin Hoffman put together.

I know of a couple of people that bought farm homes because it was such romantic thoughts and they were going to remodel They get halfway through the projects and they find out it’s really cheaper just to bulldoze the house and build a brand new one

EDIT: It seems it s different in Sicily and you don’t need to live there to buy a 1€ home, still there are other “must do” to be eligible.

"The Truth Behind Italy's $1 Homes" Sound like there's a a scam hidden underneath, but for about just one euro did you expect the mansion with swimming pool and butler? It is clear that once you have bought the property you have to renovate it and secure it, most of the properties are still unsafe due to the earthquake. It is a project made to try to repopulate this country in a beautiful area that has been abandoned for years.

@tacosmexicanstyle7846

I think it’s just calling out the click bait ‘journalism’ that has been spreading about the $1 home scheme like wildfire around the internet. In reality the deal was never that the home would cost $1, and social media has not accurately reported the facts. The clickbait stories also haven’t reported that there are legal obligations on buyers to invest further after the initial purchase. Lastly, international audiences have been frothing over the cheap property because their local markets are so inflated. I think these Italian officials know that North European and American buyers don’t have a clue what property actually costs in Italy, and I bet if you compare a 70-100k flat in a depopulated southern Italian village to other property around the country, it’s suddenly not so cheap. But foreigners from richer countries won’t know that.

@@mozdickson thats what holds me back, I live in rural USA, I have done major renovations to my home, property, never once needed an architect to draw plans, nor a contractor to do any work, I am fully capable to do all my own work, other than roofing now, but never need to get anything approved, or red tape, growing up, I worked many years of my youth for a licensed contractor, so I know what I am doing, and I also graduated from electrical programs in college for electrical wiring, so why would I want to pay for people to get involved with red tape? and contractor to do any work I could do myself. my wife is retiring either this year or next, undecided, I may work 4-5 more years, but would love to have a vacation home to stay at months at a time. presently I do own 3 homes, with 45 miles, & I have done all work myself, but its time to sell 2 of them.

@@mozdickson You would be surprised, having a home in Italy and having hired contractors and asked handy older family members and their friends for help, renovations are pretty cheap in Italy. Especially because the demand is low.

$300k is a little cheap there for a house, try 1.5m here in Vancity for your comparable house

Not 17k but 30k..... cannot do most of the work by yourself, must engage local architects, contractors, etc. Italian government should loosen their policies if they are truely sincere to the revival of their abandoned towns and cities. Especially the application and approval processes for building permits, visas, permanent residency and recognition of dual citizenship. Taxes and various fees involving properties should also be relaxed if they really want to see their objection taking off.

I'd prolly buy one if I get to go in Italy and start renovating that house

Don’t get fooled. The money to renovate and all the Italian rules will ruin ur plans. Steer clear. They should pay ppl to take them!
