1. Why do you think towns in Italy are offering homes for €1? What problem are they trying to solve?
2. What hidden costs or challenges might you face when buying a cheap house abroad?
3. For a foreign buyer: what legal, cultural or language issues would you worry about?
4. How important is it to look at all the costs (renovation, commuting, taxes, utility, distance from services) rather than just the purchase price?
5. Do you think the “€1 home” is a good investment or more of a lifestyle/travel gamble? Why?
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?
7. After today’s discussion: what one “first check” would you perform if you were seriously considering buying abroad?
