Which is your favorite cheap property? 👇 I like the one with the rooftop patio that's a 7 min walk to the beach. 🏖

[@mantralife6620]

Omg I want property 4 furnished with ocean view Sorento! I wish I had all cash now. Owner financing available by chance?! One day… I will take 4, 5 or 6!!!

That's my favorite too.Being able to wake up and go walk the beach is heavenly. I love to swim too. I can see myself growing older in that home.

[@sismachine]

The problem isn't buying a property in Italy, the prices are affordable. The issue is knowing that, for example, you can't do any internal or external renovation work without authorization from the municipality. If you want to move to Italy, and obviously it's only if you're retired because working in Italy is a nightmare, assuming you can find a job, the best choice is to rent. Trust me, I was born and raised in Italy and lived there until 10 years ago.

[@traveltirement]

Great info. Yes you wouldn’t want to buy a place unless you’d checked that you can legally do the renovations you want. There are professionals you can hire for this. Geometra, architect, or some consultants. Thanks for adding this 🙏

Love your videos, Tommy! You always have fantastic properties and provide lots of really useful info. I think property #3 is incredible! I love the space and high, star-vaulted ceilings of this region. The floors are also beautiful. Because I have dogs, I want outdoor space, and many homes in this area have gardens/yards. Maybe, if there's enough space, have a pool?!? The budget for making the space a home would be the primary factor.

I love the Tiled floors in number 3. Im an engineer by trade and ive renovated 6 properties previously so the project wouldnt worry me. The garden is a bonus and it would be good to see if there was a way to add off street parking. But alas the level of detail id want to go too would be in the 100k+ and youd never see a return on your investment. Or at little slim margins as youd have to add a pool for rental purposes.

[@traveltirement]

Thanks for the insight!

[@eleanoreagly4844]

me too, those tile floors are so lovely, plus the place was spacious, I like elbow room.

[@SageWords2027]

❤I really love the final house for the following reasons: walking distance to beach (I walk on the beach every day for my health in California so that is a must have for an Italian move), the land (we’d like to homestead), the fact that it has three bedrooms and two baths (exactly what we need) and how nice the bathrooms were. I signed up for your newsletter but it’s not been delivered to any of my inboxes. I appreciate this video and have a trip planned this year to Europe so I absolutely want to see some of these properties in person. Questions and concerns I have are: crime rates? Safety? Amazon deliveries (dependent on that for health care necessities), humidity? Friendliness toward americans? Thanks so much!

I'll answer that I'm an Italian from the north but I know the south very well . For your first question about crime (I have known the USA for 50 years and have traveled far and wide) there is really no comparison, it is definitely safer here, don't think of cinema clichés.

[@traveltirement]

The price is certainly good!

[@dennisjames3232]

Very thorough descriptions. I like the potential of the villa with the intricate tile floors, vaulted ceilings and large patio/garden area. Those walls cry out for refinishing in a "venetian" plaster application. Trying to expose the natural stone vaults and walls could be opening a can of worms. It would be a major job.

[@traveltirement]

Thanks for adding that. I appreciate you watching.

[@bernitagross7851]

Not sure if it was the 3rd or 4th showing, but the one with the front patio and stairs to the roof terrace. . . My absolute favorite!😍 As you said, the roof terrace was it for me!

The last one is also very cool. Hey, so why are these vacant? What's going on...furniture included? What would be the reason....tell us if Mt. Aetna caused peeps to leave? Because as a possible buyer we'd want to know these things...the economy, the cost of living, and also for these great properties so close to the ferries to Greece?

[@bubbaboytmboy3091]

This was a wonderful tour. Thank you. I do have to say that none of these properties are "cheap" by Italian standards ... there are few people in Italy who have $150k to spend on a property. These prices are way overpriced foreigner prices. Why would I show up and pay four times what a local would pay? Doesn't make sense. Choose and search wisely, folks.

[@traveltirement]

Thanks for watching!

[@AMYV3]

Thank you. With the last beach house. I would definitely add a spiral staircase from inside the house (wide stairs) up onto the rooftop where I’d build a master bedroom and bathroom leaving a patio over looking the ocean opening up one of the bedrooms near the main living room kitchen to make that area larger to have a big kitchen island. You can add additional housing to your property if you have a certain amount of land. Size of building Depending on size of land I’d build separate building two apartments same building side by side with roof top patio again with a bedroom on the rooftop walking out to the patio. One two bedroom daily/weekly rental the other one bedroom to lease yearly. Maybe both weekly depending on housing need in the town. In north America we don’t need more airb&Bs, one of the reasons we have a housing crisis. Boy did that backfire.

[@traveltirement]

Thanks for adding your vision. It sounds amazing!

[@scottfiresign953]

I just started watching your video. The first house is nice and I like that it has a garage. The thing that seems to be missing in all the photos of this town is people. I didn't see one person. How many people live there full time and how many are just vacation homes. It could be a really cool place to live, but without people it would be pretty lonely .

All these towns have people. The population database is linked in the description. Those are full time residents. I would recommend a visit before you purchase. Make sure it has the vibe you’re after. And people.

You often compare the cost to houses in the US. It doesn't matter if a house is 50% of the cost in the US--- it's not in the US. You are in Italy, a wonderful but very different country. I am European and I know the difference.

[@traveltirement]

I live in the US and most of my audience is American, so it seems appropriate to me. Thanks for watching!

[@mradventurer8104]

Nice and thanks for the overview! In my mind the last property is overpriced as it seems one pays 100k just for the view and another 50k for it being a separate property and another 50k for the proximity to the beach. If you don't need all of that then one better buys further away from the beach. But for a person who really wants a beachside property it could be a nice option.

[@traveltirement]

There are no restrictions on Americans buying property. If you paid cash for a house and stayed in Italy no more than 90 days out of every 180 days, you just need a passport. Staying longer requires a visa. I hope that's helplful!

[@giansala7409]

An Italian tells you: just pay.And there's no problem...

[@johnk6316]

I’ve asked all of the other retire in Italy channels, so I’ll ask here too. I have heard that Italy’s retirement visa is difficult to get and then has to be renewed each year. So, you could buy a house for year round living and your visa doesn’t get renewed. I can’t afford a vacation house only.

[@traveltirement]

Great question. First, I don't think it's hard to get the Elective Residency Visa, per se. As in the requirements are not onerous. But I have heard that the PROCESS can be difficult and time-consuming. Depending on the consulate in the US, I've heard from folks who have a completed application, easily meet the income requirements, have a Codice Fiscale, etc., but cannot get an appointment set. Or the consulate will not call them back after repeated messages. Italy is famous for its bureaucracy, and you can't escape that even in the U.S.! Once you have the visa, as long as you still meet the requirements, I don't think it's hard to renew in Italy.

[@mantralife6620]

3rd property looks like it might have mold issues? The flat roof can be a nightmare with leaks. Any more info on it? Love the first property. Any info on possible financing for non resident aliens/foreigners?

It’s difficult for non-residents to get a mortgage. Not impossible but requires a lot of documentation. And you likely need to put 30-50% down.

[@elizabethmowjee2402]

It is difficult for foreign buyers to get a mortgage if you're not already living in Italy. So yes, a cash buyer would be ideal. Thanks for the question!

[@eleanoreagly4844]

My favorite was the one with the marvelous old tiled floors and the vaulted ceilings, plus lots of room. What is the income tax rate for a U.S. citizen?

[@traveltirement]

These are in areas where you can qualify for a 7% flat income tax in Italy. For at least 9+ yrs. Then it reverts to their progressive tax system. With the 7%, you still have to file and pay in the US (if you owe).

[@jasonedwards2571]

[@DF-by7gy]

What is the resale value of these properties? It seems tome like it is better to rent a property there.

[@traveltirement]

There's no way to know. Many areas of southern Italy are still struggling with migration away to big cities. I certainly wouldn't buy a place expecting it to just appreciate like in the US or UK or Canada. Renting is certainly an option, especially if you're not yet sure if an area is right for you.

I like the first property has lot of potential all the others where to small inside the home tiny homes with roof tops no thanks !

[@traveltirement]

Thanks for your feedback Jimmey 😁

[@awabooks9886]

Hey on the very 1st property, I didn't notice: Number of rooms, bedrooms, bathrooms, square footage, etc. 😒

[@traveltirement]

If you follow the link in the description you can see all the details.

[@yesiownfrodo]

So you haven't seen them, just online photos. sigh.

[@traveltirement]

Sorry to disappoint you. But thanks for watching!

[@paulaoh5306]

No matter--there is lots of good info here, regarding location, remodeling, average prices for the area, links to the listing, etc. Ultimately, you have to see it yourself before you buy it anyway. I wouldn't buy any property without seeing it myself.

[@miamichiefs]

Thank you so much for the video. Sorry if I give advice. I really recent when real estate representatives call a property cheap. The word cheap is such a turn off. Despite the fact the properties are priced well and are affordable in comparison to the United States I really think you should not use the word “cheap.“ I don’t want to buy a cheap anything. It comes across as if it is not only low in price but of poor quality. For this reason I have no interest. After all a property is an investment doesn’t matter how low you pay.

[@traveltirement]

I appreciate your perspective. Unfortunately, I've learned that on KZbin you have to use such terms to get folks to watch. So I have to play the game a little. But it's not my favorite term either!

What is the name of town the 3rd property???

[@karilang9377]

I have retired. In February. I've been travelling to Genova many times now. I will start looking home there in September.

[@traveltirement]

@@karilang9377 Excellent! Congrats on the retirement. Let me know what you find!

[@blockchainfork]

Have you even been to these places?

[@traveltirement]

No. I have friends and professional contacts in Italy. It's amazing what you can learn just using the internet! Thanks for watching.

[@AizonDeSoteraux-tv1xx]

Are you licensed to sell these properties you are showing??

[@traveltirement]

I don't have any connection to these properties other than finding them, researching the area, and sharing them here. All the contact info to get in tough with the agents is in the property listings in the description of the video. I do have professional friends in Italy who can possibly help if needed. Thanks for watching!

What kills me is-My truck cost more than a house. Damn Need to take a visit, then sell my truck for a house. Bizarre Thanks

[@traveltirement]

Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@olgatumanova3596]

I think it was a mistake to buy an old shed in the middle of nowhere and in need of every possible renovation needed to be liveable.

[@traveltirement]

Thanks for watching 👍

[@missmayflower]

So you haven’t actually been there? You’re just giving us a Google maps tour? And looking at a real estate listing online?

[@traveltirement]

That’s correct. I only have friends and professional contacts who live in Italy and help me with research.

Yes. All of them I believe.

I look for cheap homes all over Italy. Make sure you subscribe in case I find some in your area!

i actually visited three of these if anyone isinterested

[@traveltirement]

Yes, please ask questions of someone who's been there recently!

[@ldqa2737]

#3 is a huge reno project. Looks like it's water damage, rotten wood and plastering.

[@traveltirement]

I’m guessing there’s very little wood. Mostly stone and blocks. You’d definitely need to budget appropriately!

[@ldqa2737]

What worries me about these properties around this area is the invasion of the newcomers from across the Med?

I'm Italian and I'll answer you, blacks all go to the north, unfortunately... where I live

[@MyriamVillanueva-ej7fo]

Does Italy has a retirement visa? And how long usually takes to be approved. I already retired and will love to move to Italy

[@traveltirement]

Yes the visa you want is the Elective Residency Visa. How long it takes depends on many factors. I’d say a minimum 90 days, but I’d allow 6 months to a year is you’re just starting.

[@marcosta183]

One shouldn’t compare property prices from other Countries. That attitude leads to speculation...😮

[@traveltirement]

Thanks for watching 😎

[@DennisLong-iw8ys]

Not being the USA is the best part😊 and I was born in the US

[@traveltirement]

The US has many great features, but Europe is magical (to me).

[@louisemaree2704]

Stunning. FYI: those towers were put along the entire coastlines of Italy to see the barbarians attempting to invade it. They are all protected and so beautiful. One has been converted by a private owner as an Air BnB near Amalfi ❤

[@traveltirement]

Wow. Thanks for sharing this! The history of these areas is amazing.

[@beaulong]

When italy switched to the euro it was game over..... not cheap enough...

[@traveltirement]

There are many countries cheaper than Italy, but I'd put Italy up against anywhere for the food, history and culture. Thanks for watching and commenting!
