I appreciate your research and investment in Sicily. This is a land that has so much to offer. My grandfather came from Agrigento to Uruguay, where I was born and live now, but I am evaluating the possibility of going to Sicily and maybe stay there. I've been there three times and it's my spot in the world. Apart from that, you should visit Punta del Este in Uruguay, it's a great place to invest and tourists get crazy about it during our summer (December to February).

[@Karl__Pierre]

Yes I have heard! Maybe next year I will visit. I hope this video was helpful. Agrigento is a nice place to be I could imagine it in the summer as well. I feel the prices are good throughout the island.

Thank you for making this video. I've always wondered about those 1 dollar Italian homes. I have one request though. Can you make the renovation into a video series or 1 long video? I've thought about getting one of these for years. So to see a full renovation from start to finish would be a wealth of knowledge for me. Also congratulations on your purchase! We the fans are eagerly waiting for the results👍

Great suggestion! That's the plan. This is already part of the series so next episodes details the transaction, then my reno planning, then my return, then the work, then the reveal, then whatever else happens haha. stay tuned and thanks for the feedback.

[@kaykepop4084]

I remember seeing something like this before, I cannot remember which country. But in order to buy at this cheaper price you have to show proof that you're able to refurbish the home. And you have to finish within a certain amount of time. Not sure if that's the same for these homes.

[@Karl__Pierre]

Similar. 3 years to finish the he project or you get fined. Other places want you to demonstrate ability to fix it. They want properties improved not someone buying it for a dollar and say some day I'll fix it.

[@theblacktableunfiltered6874]

Do you need to have a certain amount of money saved to buy one....in other words to you have to prove that you have the money to renovate

[@101life9]

With the Cost of rebuilding, you might as well get a decent house with the amount. The cost of most houses are relatively low. If you are foreigner, everything will cost more if you don't have a reliable local friend helping you. $1 deal could be a disaster in the end. Make sure you are welcome in the area. No prejudice or any kind 😃

[@Karl__Pierre]

I agree, the $1 could be a disaster which is why I went with a superior non euro property. I didn't consider any prejudice - I guess its not something I think about considering I am American and that's a common experience that I don't care about.

Oh my gosh! I have no idea how I found your channel, but I'm glad I have! I plan on buying property in different parts of Italy and around Europe, so this series hits a little closer to home for me. I'm waiting for my "codice fiscale" from the Italian Consulate in my area and want to wait just a bit longer for the prices to start decreasing - but I'm SO impatient due to excitement! Due to the virus, this will be the best buyer's market and I can't wait!

Wonderful! You're on the right track. Stay in touch and maybe we can connect I am willing to help out however I can. My next project will be in GREECE or Brazil always looking to work with like minded people. I am not sure if the market will pull back, my overall advice is by the best deal you can in the current market trying to time markets can cause you to miss really good opportunities.

[@ImaginedAsKIDZ]

@@Karl__Pierre The next country I want to purchase property in is Greece, so I will most def stay in touch and keep an eye out for your videos! I plan on documenting my move to Italy, especially since I need to relocate my business (I live in Switzerland and my business is registered here). At the moment, the Italian corporate tax is too high for my liking, I plan on registering it elsewhere. I haven't decided yet since I like to do one major thing at a time, but I digress. I agree with you about the market, but I'm not waiting in vain. I'm finishing up a cybersecurity course and plan on rebranding my business, so once this course done, I should have my codice fiscale and will unregister at my local town hall (we have to register/unregister ourselves at the local town halls each time we move in or out of the area). In the meantime, people will feel more confident moving about post COVID-19 and the prices on homes will hopefully start decreasing - more so in the southern regions. Again, I'm digressing because I'm a chatterbox, but I'm excited about my move/purchasing real estate in Italy and it's really cool to talk with someone who can relate!

[@Karl__Pierre]

@@ImaginedAsKIDZ I totally understand

[@Opinlinz]

@@ImaginedAsKIDZ The market will definitely pull back soon because a correction is passed due. Even before the CV19 pandemic the markets were inflated. Businesses around the world are taking a huge hit as well as everyday people. I've told my sister since late last year to hold off on purchasing a new home and thankfully she did. After the U.S. elections there should be a major pullback globally.

Why have these properties become abandoned ? Did the owners die with no one to inherit them and went straight to state owned ?

[@Karl__Pierre]

Good question. Mussomeli is a small town in Sicily. The south is less economically viable so with the open of the Eurozone alot of people have left Italy, especially the south, for better economic growth. They leave to England, France, Germany, Switzerland etc. So the youth isn't repopulating these towns. Also in mussomeli there is the new town. That's where the locals prefer to live, homes are modern more spacious. Also with parking so the locals have outgrown the nostalgic feel of old town even though that's where the bars and restaurants are. As a foreign old town is perfect for me.

I saw ads about the1 euro homes which stated how horrible the conditions are, online tour and how They did not want anyone who wanted to use them as rental properties only folks who want to live in them not even vacation . Thank you for showing this!! I heard the Italians love women of color!

[@Karl__Pierre]

It depends on the town, each Town has its conditions on the terms of the euro homes. Usually in those towns that have euro homes they also have listings that are very cheap and liveable. As far as having a taste for woman of color I think some people are drawn to what is uncommon in your area. They also like blonde hair since most Italians are brunette

[@tipofelice]

Very much enjoyed your presentation. Thank you and buona fortuna in your ventures.

[@Karl__Pierre]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@LucAbroad]

I am Italian and I really wish you the best of luck! Unfortunately taxes are incredibly high in Italy and the gov makes it hard to invest.

[@Karl__Pierre]

What would you consider high? My taxes are scheduled to be $600-$700 Euro a year.

[@LucAbroad]

@@Karl__Pierre Notary expenses, local taxes, etc. but I happy to hear that is all good for you.

[@driedcheese]

Well done. Having been through the rigours of the Italian property market it takes a fair amount of courage and a bit of naivety to follow this dream. I hope you're armed with some people looking out for your best interests as there are many pitfalls for the uninitiated (though the sums you are talking aren't crippling). We are working on landing our first house outside of Florence, but have almost bought properties on 2 other occasions (until the pitfalls I mentioned kicked in). Fortune favours the brave. Salute

[@Karl__Pierre]

What happened exactly

[@driedcheese]

@@Karl__Pierre The first property had a number of spaces that weren't on the official plans at the commune. The second property was zoned as rural, which means the property owner must generate 50% of their income from that property, or pay 30k to have the zoning changed. We are in the midst of purchasing another property now, so hopefully all goes well!

[@ajivkovmetz1]

awesome...I am onboard. I live in Florence and have not quite pulled the trigger on home ownership yet. The administrative toll is sobering enough. Thank you for your extended research ---I too have my eye on Puglia and Sicily.

[@Karl__Pierre]

[@mdlg1983]

@@Karl__Pierre great, looking forward to seeing it!

[@bedinabebe4521]

That's an Amazing Deal.👍🏾The smaller property can be marketed as Rustic & that tiny bathtub is too cute.🛁 I like the 3 story property & the upstairs kitchen is adorable...I'm cooking up there! I would have to persue the abandoned property next door for possible expansion. Parking & that view are great features. Good food & beaches are enough, but I researched that Sicily is serious about Theatre & Karaoke. I may have to give you some business. My initials plans were to spend the minimum of one month in Italy around April & I would have gotten stranded there due to Coronavirus. 6 months would be more likely to satisfy because I must explore many places. I've been interested in Euro Deals especially in Sardinia & Sicily. Congrats!🏤

[@joselito7776]

I like your 1st choice, the one on via Paulo Velenza. It fronts a cobblestone street with a facade that looks like its been there for centuries. I'm hoping that the adjacent properties are likewise, with shadows that changes depending on the time of day. What would be a tremendous bonus is if that cobblestone street would open up to a nearby piazza featuring an old church with cafes in its periphery. I didn't like your 2nd choice though. I know its practical to front an asphalt parking lot but because it reminds of where trailer homes are located, I don't like it much. . And its interior is not much better. It reminds me of my Italian friends' basements when I was growing up. x 2. Where are you narrating this video from, if you don't mind me asking. It looks like a huge, super cool loft, but I'm seeing 2 elevator doors which is unusual even for a loft with a private elevator access. Just curious.

[@Karl__Pierre]

Its one block from the piazza - google it! really well located. Regarding the 2nd - that's interesting I like that view and the car access. Thanks for the feedback!

[@lucafaccin330]

theoretically, in order to buy those houses at that price, you should move your residence to those communes because they make these proposals to increase the population and avoid holiday homes or rental properties ...

Inaccurate

[@Karl__Pierre]

Thanks, where else would you recommend?

[@henryclay8462]

@@Karl__Pierre I like South East Asia. The people are friendly and living there is far cheaper than Europe, and the United States. In the Philippines in the capital of Manila, there are many competed Condos where the developers are begging for business. Because of the Corona Virus, tourism has come to a dead stop. I understand Condos in Doorman buildings are going for mortgage payments of about $150 a month. Thailand, and Vietnam are also good buys. If looking for a house, you can only buy a house if you marry a native in one of the countries, or do a "Lease Hold", which allows you to lease the land a house is on for up to 50 years. Your viewers should also check out a newsletter called "Overseas Living" which talks about investing in real estate in all parts of the world, and the cost of living, Healthcare, and other topics for those who like to call more than one place home.
