WARNING: Do not watch Marco’s dinner on an empty stomach. It looks sensational. In my recent experience Puglia has superlative food at every level, including in most tourist restaurants with plastic chairs.

[@kirkwayman3269]

Your eating-property tour combos, humor, writing and production are so top-notch this could be a regular series on public TV or a commercial channel. SO good! Bravo!

[@ramonajordan3875]

I think this may be the most beautiful historical center I've seen. Gorgeous! Both properties are breathtaking. Wow!

[@mradventurer8104]

I also liked it especially the white (church) walls. In the Netherlands we have mostly red bricks.

[@k-mixxx7927]

Now I finally know why I enjoy watching your videos so much. The way they're done and how you present is very professional, I always thought😅 I didn't know that's actually what you do for a living! Great properties this week as well 👌🙏🙏

[@jocelynhardman6325]

Honestly, this was my favorite of your videos thus far! Your production quality is always outstanding, so for me, the content was the star. The historical features and evident patrimonial value of these palazzi were remarkable and the details just breathtaking. I hope you have inspired an investor to take the plunge and save a piece of priceless Italian history. And let’s be honest, I also come here for the food! What an amazing meal you shared with us; thank you!

[@casamiasalentina5818]

Absolutely beautiful palazzos. I have a soft spot for preserving the old and the second palazzo was simply amazing, that historic kitchen and the amazing cementina floors wow!! Thank you for bringing both these properties to us tonight.

[@laurihines300]

I love the artistry of your videos. I don’t know if I have the bandwidth, but I am very interested in a Puglian Palazzo. And that restaurant looks amazing

[@ronen160]

Simply magnificant!!! I'm amazed at how quiet the town is.

[@Dorismicallef]

Highlight of my week! Your videos are always so well done. Rich in detail about the area, the history, food and culture. I work for the largest real estate portals in Australia. Australian property cant even compete with what Italy offers and yet it is a fraction of the price. Thank you for bringing Italy closer to us each week. From Sydney Australia!

[@robjus1601]

First time viewer, I have to compliment you on the layout map. It greatly helps the viewer understand where you are going.

[@jodiehebert8285]

That place is most well preserved and beautifully decorated palazzo. The wooden doors with carvings, wow! Agreed, absolutely stunning!! 😍

[@user-ou3xn4vf9w]

Just georgeous, all of it! And the price for the 2nd palazzo is really not much considering the first floor so beautifully done already.

[@Hoakaloa]

Si! Breath taking! Grazie for distracting me for a moment from the fever dream happening in the USA.

[@lisac4225]

Just another amazing video love that you go walking through the towns as well. That really is unique to your videos and really gives us who aren’t on another continent a peak into life before you look into the apartment or home. Thanks again thanks for sharing the food as well.

[@notdoingsogood2024]

WoW! Both are Stunning. ❤ 🎉 I had to go eat a donut peach after seeing your glorious dessert! 🍑

[@johnsmith-eq1zc]

I think you may have quite underestimated the renovation costs in the first property. In the second, how would it work out for a BnB when you have to go thru one bedroom to get to another.

[@funghouls5498]

Wow what a stunning renovation in the first palazzo. The second showhome is phenomenal; The history, workmanship, just beautiful.

[@lillianr4521]

Wow. That peach dessert is so impressive! And the second noble house is exquisite! Another great video. Thank you!

[@peterscalata]

I think both pilasa are beautiful I really like the second one it has a lot of potential as a wedding venue

[@virginiafeliciano9318]

The second palazzo is to die for! And that furniture. I wouldn’t change a thing! Does it come with all that furniture?

[@trishmalibu6986]

Your videos always SUPERB EXCELLENT must takes hundreds hours to make this beautiful video. I really enjoy it. Thank You !

[@Justdreamitaly]

Thank you so much. Between filming, editing and everything else involved 100 hours probably isn't far off.

[@wanderingwithwine]

Woah, absolutely stunning!! Thank you for sharing so much beauty with us all, Marco ✨

[@hannahpricekarlsson]

Wow! So much original artwork and the furniture in that second Palazzo was just amazing! Both were beautiful and that dinner made me wish I could hop on a flight to Italy today! ❤

[@TheKaru63]

Omg I’m in love 🥰 😍 with that Palazzo!!

[@kirkshrum6222]

Bro always tempting us with the food! Great video & cool palazzo. Should have taken the drone out, you could have gotten it stranded on the tower roof again, ha. Cheers Kirk

[@kathleentrinity7367]

So good to see what can be done to a palazzo in a very tasteful manner, and what one looks like originally. This has been a pleasure to watch.

[@jroar123]

It's amazing what people can do with these palazzos. However, the place is just too large for my needs unless it's turned into a B&B. I'm at the age that I just want a place to call home. Affordability is one of the reasons to give up living in Houston. Besides, my area of town is becoming dangerous and very costly. And, I'm looking for a new hobby, which means I'm looking for a place to call home that I can work on myself (some contracting out repairs and upgrades). Before I make any move, I have to get my residence visa for Italy back. I understand there is a new visa type that would allow retirees the ability to live in Italy? Thanks for the video, they are very well done.

[@nathandmello1762]

God i always wait for the next video and then the next one......your killing it marco....keep it up!!!

[@darenbyers4291]

Amazing the second palazzo is great value, love the layout and think the area with the garage space would make and amazing separate suite. Has a real james bond vibe with that staircase, very cool.

[@user-tu4is9ld7z]

Amazing. Two of the best properties you have shown. Thank you

[@SabineBeckerPUSH]

Ho seguito il canale di Marco fin dall'inizio. Videografia meravigliosa e miglioramento ogni volta che pubblichi un video. Anche se molto bello, un Palazzo non fa proprio per me. Preferisco la campagna intorno a Cisternino, dove soggiorno ogni anno due o tre mesi.

[@finniganyork9608]

The palazzo for sale... I wish i could buy it! It's glorious! And so is the furniture. Plus, that peach dessert was a melty little work of art.

[@artistknownasssilas]

The second palazzo is absolutely awesome. Perfect with original architectural elements still left in place and the slow yet low intrusive improvements over the decades. Excellent.

[@jamescunningham1973]

Marco,fantastic video as always,those properties are amazing

[@Justdreamitaly]

@@jamescunningham1973 glad you enjoyed!

[@gerrycornel7204]

The content and quality of your videos are excellent! It immerses one to feel like we’re there alongside you. But how can you stay lean with all that deliciousness. Inspired! Thank you!

[@Justdreamitaly]

Happy to bring you along! Glad you enjoyed 🙏.

[@cherylsimpson2131]

Thanks for bringing quality each and every time . One day I will buy in Pulia but unfortunately it will have to wait , as I am a Canadian . Really enjoy watching you .

[@lealovestravel]

Wow. These are absolutely amazing! I particularly loved the second one. And such a beautiful town. I love your videos.

[@mercurial5810]

Love your channel

[@navyxxl6697]

Very well made video... Beautifull houses and I will go tobthat restaurant 😮

[@lisac4225]

I always have to make comments about when you eat because I really think that you have a third leg that you’re putting all that food in it all looks so amazing but oh my gosh, you actually can finish it all. I’m just jealous. I wish I had about three stomachs 😂

[@LanaALaBonte]

Wow 🤩 absolutely stunning! They’re both amazing. I love how they maintained the old with the new. The second has so much charm & potential. Does that come with everything inside? Those floors are incredible!

[@eileencronk7520]

[@disk1310]

Many thanks for your all beautiful episodes. Some day, hopefully very soon, will come to explore and get some apartment in this area. Mille grazie, Marco!

[@tpugca]

Amazing & beautiful ❤

[@surf01er66]

Cool, thanks

[@mradventurer8104]

Great video! Question about the prices/costs of the first building. It said 500k+ 100K repairs etc. But the lady said there were no ceilings and no pipework. To do all that for ten different apartments how can that be only 100k?

[@jamesbarr2357]

It cost far more. The furniture alone would have been over 100,000!

[@IgnoresTrolls]

It wasn't 100k. The lady said "about half that" when referring to the €1m+ price tag. That could mean well over €600k depending on what a person means by that, but she does indicate that this property was a similar price range to the 590k the other property is advertised at. Then Marco adds to get it up and running that "it's like what another 20% on top of the purchase price?" Again, a lot of scope for interpretation. "Up and running" might not mean to the standard we see, "like 20%" could be 30% and the response was not a confident yes, it was a "uh, yyeahh" with a chuckle. Generously, I think we can interpret this as 30% of 600k, so €200k to get "up and running" as in, structurally safe, clean and good enough to rent a room out, but not what we see here.

[@lisapsd]

Your video is beautiful ❤❤❤

[@veronicaroach3667]

I do love Puglia, I spent a holiday with my extended family there several years ago in one of those old 'Masseria' houses that were the country retreat houses of wealthy families years ago. I recognize a lot of the floors, masonry & general feeling of these properties, and they are very interesting, but I do not find them comfortable - not welcoming from that perspective. That's me, I prefer 'cozy', so I would not buy one of these houses for myself, just enjoy the differences as an interesting learning experience. Thank you for your video, a fascinating topic indeed !

[@teresa19481]

Will be interesting to know the price, per piacere. Grazie, il video e il palazzo sono meravigliosi. Grazie

[@clintschuler8231]

Marco. Another great video!!! Been waiting:-) Grazie You mentioned Puglia offers up to 50% financial assistance to remodel some of these historic buildings. Where can I go to get more information and do you know if this would be a loan or some type of grant money?

[@halidogmanthehero917]

The real issue with this Palazzo would be the City Historical designation. Based on other videos it appears that the design committees are horrific - HOA x 1000........ power mad. This would be a FANTASTIC place if you could modify it - but the City may not allow that. Truly the huge problem with the Palazzo.............

[@halidogmanthehero917]

WOW. Just amazing - I'd buy it tomorrow if I had the cash! How long has it been on the market? Hmmmmm....... 🥰

[@roundtwo3321]

Impressive buildings with Los Angeles prices.

[@1kkmm1]

100k for palazzo renovation ha! More like 300-500k!

[@SabineSabineP]

Exactly what I've been thinking. Especially if it should include floors and roof

[@user-ef5zl9fl3b]

Or more...

[@janetdonohue7150]

Absolutely gorgeous camera work. Raw prawns?

[@TheKaru63]

Where would I find info about how & what Regional Puglia supports re renovation etc?

[@user-pq8vd2qv1m]

室內沒有過度裝飾很好，如果能擺放法式古董椅子，銅燈 或傢俱會更美

[@oskar6607]

No way it cost just €100k to completely renovate a large old building in the city center to the spec of the first villa. No way. I don’t believe it. Add a zero to it.

[@TravelGarda]

Hi, I follow you from Italy, I saw your interview on Think Media Podcast, very interesting. I live on lake garda, if you need info, just ask

[@navyxxl6697]

Beautifull cities, but in all the videos the streets are empty😢 Are they deserted cities or it's because of the heat ?

[@andrelemire9915]

🌹🌹🌹🌹

[@user-vh5mw4cr7m]

Is the furniture and antiques included in sales price?

[@JamesRodriguez-lj5xk]

From $37K to $45K that's the minimum range of profit return every week I thinks it's not a bad one for me, now I have enough to pay bills and take care of my family.

[@PandaJames-nm5sf]

Excuse me for real?,how is that possible I have struggling financially, how was that possible?

[@JamesRodriguez-lj5xk]

Thanks to Elizabeth Marie Hawley.

[@JamesRodriguez-lj5xk]

Though I started with as low as $15,000 actually because it was my first time and it was successful, She's is a great personality in the states

[@JamesMark-gc3fz]

YES!!! That's exactly her name (Elizabeth Maria Hawley) so many people have recommended highly about her and am just starting with her 😊 from Brisbane Australia🇦🇺

I have heard a lot of wonderful things about Elizabeth Maria Hawley on the news but didn't believe it until now. I'm definitely trying her out

[@keenan7156]

First. I guess...

[@susannebrunberg4174]

It's a shame that they distroy every palace they see. Can't there be one where you let the frescos be on the walls and ceilings? Is it really necessary to paint over everything? The first "palazzo" was completely distroyed. This second one had a couple of room still beautiful, the rest painted in awful colors. New thin walls, and such... And then they managed to distroy the rest of the house, and left it... Thinking that someone will buy it? Oh no. It's not too big, but it is a mess!

[@lisac4225]

Just another amazing video love that you go walking through the towns as well. That really is unique to your videos and really gives us who aren’t on another continent a peak into life before you look into the apartment or home. Thanks again thanks for sharing the food as well.
