Description

Thinking of buying a house abroad or simply curious about those viral “€1 homes in Italy”? In this session, we’ll examine the allure, and the reality, behind buying property in a foreign country. We’ll explore what to watch out for (costs, legal rules, lifestyle changes), share experiences, and think about whether “cheap” always means “smart”.

Session Activities

Question 1: If you could buy a house anywhere in the world for €1, would you? Why or why not?

Question 2: What are the top 2 things you would check before buying a house in another country?

Question 3: Have you ever considered moving to another country to buy property? What appeals and what worries you?

Question 1: Why do you think towns in Italy are offering homes for €1? What problem are they trying to solve?

Question 2: What hidden costs or challenges might you face when buying a cheap house abroad?

Question 3: For a foreign buyer: what legal, cultural or language issues would you worry about?

Question 4: How important is it to look at all the costs (renovation, commuting, taxes, utility, distance from services) rather than just the purchase price?

Question 5: Do you think the “€1 home” is a good investment or more of a lifestyle/travel gamble? Why?

Question 6: If you owned a home abroad, how would you manage it (live there full-time, rent it, holiday home)? What risks and benefits does each option have?
