How cheap is a house in Italy?


How cheap is a house in Italy? Think rates starting as low as €7,500 ($9,000) and going up to €13,000 ($15,778). (It has also sparked a copycat trend, with two other villages in Italy announcing plans to sell ready-to-move-into houses starting at about $12,000.)


How long can I stay in Italy if I buy a house?

An Italian residence permit by investment is valid for 2 years. The status can then be renewed for 3 years, provided that the minimum investment is kept. A new Nulla Osta is needed for the renewal. After the renewal, the investor can apply for permanent residency in Italy.


Is property cheaper in Italy or France?
