      @OurItalianDreamHouse 15 дней назад

      Hi, thanks for your comment. Design can definitely be polarising since taste is very personal. We prefer a very classic design aesthetic with elements that reflect the history of the house (terrazzo tiles for example) which is not typically “modern”. But of course, we have had to use modern materials to meet building standard and make the house suitable to stand up to the wear and tear of being rented. So it’s certainly a balance, but we are exceptionally pleased with how it turned out.

      @@OurItalianDreamHouse Well just browsing through ideas Really! Some facts im trying to understand though.. As the main reason being that the Italian government is trying to repopulate these deserted towns to get them up and running again. So im wondering how this concept can grow soon because not only are there very little, if not any employment possibilities in these old areas but also the cities close by generally have a pretty high unemployment rate and low wages. So im wondering how they imagine regular families could financially survive or anyone who just wants to live in one of these regions that wants a regular job. I understand it’s a perfect situation for a vacation home or perhaps some kind of hotel business idea and of course for a few of those who are able to work from home via home office, But because the majority don’t have this option , wouldn’t this lower the potential of the repopulation idea by quite a bit? I absolutely do not mean this to be negative in any way because it’s obviously a beautiful dream to live there. I was just wondering as you have now started part of your life there and its probably also in anyone’s best interest who is now planning a future there , to think about and how fast things will develop.

    • @OurItalianDreamHouse
      @OurItalianDreamHouse 23 дня назад

      I think you make some really valid points here. And personally, I'd never buy one of those 1€ properties, for the exact reasons you're mentioning. I have a feeling the 1€ towns will be still deserted in a couple of years but with foreign buyers stuck with properties they cant get rid of and still demands to spend a certain amount of money to renovate them. It takes hundreds of full time residents to create a sustainable infrastructure and I cant see how that would happen. Our village is in the center of Piedmont, has slightly over 3000 inhabitants and is a 45 min drive from Turin, 70 min drive from Milan and 15 min drive from the closest "bigger town" - and we still got it for a very reasonable price (compared to the housing market in Scandinavia).
