I think the house of Meredith, she is doing a good work, im dreaming to move to Italy where my couple live and get a home but to be realistic an elevator and the remodelation plan idk i don't get it, you making the remodelation and the house is yours? what is the real thing? when the home is your home and not the comune home? thanks.
Hi DauvO, this is a really great video! Excellent summary of Sambuca! Thank you very much for providing the information here! I am planning to make a visit to Sambuca after watching your videos.
I absolutely loved this video, as you've done a nice sampling of various houses in Sambuca ... I'm a bit biased as the house that I liked the best, was Mine !! :-) thank you for doing that walkthrough with Margherita. And putting it in this post. But having had a look now at how Martin's & Massoud's projects have turned out - I sure wouldn't mind having an elevator installed !!! how cool was that.
I think investing 200k euros in sambuca for a renovation is losing 200k euros... unless you really have family ties to the place. But i guess most people buying 1 euro homes are europeans from France, Belgium, uk, germany Who want a sunny home vacation. And with such budget i think you can buy in a place where the house will keep its value. I myself own a family house in spain in a small village with my brothers but we all think renovating it is a waste of money as then it s close to impossible to resell. (And we live far also) hope this helps
@@giampieroienna7428 yes much better deal. When you buy a 1 euro home, you know it s not a business and you will not make a profit but the cost of renovation should not be more than 30 or 40k so it s still a good deal. And normally you should not be too far (max 2 hours) so you can enjoy your home. This couple of Belgium moved there i guess.
It is definitely about perspective and situation. A lot of people i speak with that have bought on small towns never mention that their hope is to retain their investment.. they are 100% focused on the value of their quality of life instead. The people interviewed in this video aren't scraping by for sure which to me indicates smart investment decisions. But not everything has to be based on the dollar value.. i would hope some attention would be placed on quality of life as with these examples. I understand your interest in making wise investment decisions. I hope one day even small villages like this can become good investment decisions
Agree with you DauVO, really grateful to you for sharing all the costs involved and perspectives from these trailblazers. U r playing a big part in generating and sustaining interests in these depopulated villages in Italy. I come from a city that has very little space and I think ppl would love to come visit such magnificent villages.
Hi DauvO, thank you for sharing content like this. I'm a SoCal girl dreaming of renovating a farmhouse near Torino. Your videos give me an insider look at what locations I can see myself living in. My big concern with small towns like this is access to a hospital. Other than that, I wouldn't mind a gorgeous small town environment.
@@DauvO For emergency type care, I would say any minute counts, so the closer the better. I would personally feel relaxed being within a 10 minute drive max. For urgent care, routine checkups, and specialty offices, I would drive 30 minutes.
This is a lovely town. I passed through here to check it out on my last visit in 2019. Margarite came to meet me and gave me a quick intro and a peek at one property. I believe this town is a great example of how to do renovating an Italian ruin right. They are also very good at reinvesting in the infrastructure for the existing and future residents. My only regret is that it is not in the area of Sicily where I would like to retire.
Great video Dauv0. That was great to go into more detail about Sambuca regions/boundaries. I’m hoping to be there in July so let me know if you win the €2 home 🤞
@@DauvO I also got in touch with Margherita so hopefully I’ll get a new place in 2022. I can’t recall what you said the internet is like in Sambuca? I’ll still be looking at the superior type home more than € homes
I know that a few were remote working and said their internet was decent. I didn't experience it directly, but i know starlink is available in Italy now too.. it just costs more
@@DauvO good to know as that is only the main dealbreaker as I need to run my lifestyle management business from there 👌 I’ll message you when I arrive in Italy and see if we’re in similar locations at the time to meet for a coffee
What is the general cost of an elevator, and what are the construction challenges? What kind of clearance do you need? Is it a rail that lifts from the roof or plunger with pit in ground, something else? her aging in place concern is relatable.
Wow since the movie Under the Tuscan Sun, so trendy everybody wants a villa in Tuscany or old Villa in any Italian city they take these old Villas and then turn them into modern-day houses take the charm completely out of The Old villas what's the point?
This town follow an auction system and their minimum bid was 2 euro this time.. other cities are first come first serve and start for 1 euro or even free at times. . But the transfer has some taxes and fees to pay, but the purchase price .. ya it can be 1 euro
Which house did you like the most?

The last one was awesome
I have agree that I do like the Agrigento region, small towns, beautiful landscapes and country vibes. Thanks for sharing the video
Glad to hear it! Good luck with your search!
It’s nice to see their houses coming together!
Wow! This is really helpful to see how some of these projects have turned out and a general idea on costs.
Omg 😱 that house with the elevator is magnificent so beautiful
I definitely agree 👍.. an elevator in a house just changes everything haha

It depends on the point of view. If u live in a big city, with 200k € u are able to buy a flat with 2 rooms plus a bathroom.. so ...

Beautiful and interesting video. I'd love to watch videos regarding every single restored or under restoration house.
Thanks. I will see if i can get some footage from when they bought their homes. That would be fun to see

My big concern with small towns like this is access to a hospital. Other than that, I wouldn't mind a gorgeous small town environment.
I understand. How close should the hospital be to be considered accessible?
I'm sure there's a hospital or even two in Siacca . It's only about 20 min. by car from Sambuca

Keep the videos about Sambuca coming
Definitely!

her aging in place concern is relatable.
Like the access. Disabled. Most people can't do it.
Ya! Really great they had the space to implement that!
Great video❗
Grazie @Lella
Wow since the movie Under the Tuscan Sun, so trendy everybody wants a villa in Tuscany or old Villa in any Italian city they take these old Villas and then turn them into modern-day houses take the charm completely out of The Old villas what's the point?

You are!
Great great video
Thanks Neil. I am glad you liked it
I love "Sambuca" in my coffee!
