Italy has always had a powerful charm, enticing people to its
shores from all over the globe. The lure of the wonderful climate,
unique history and culture, not to mention the cuisine and wines,
all combine to make Italy a superb choice as a destination for a
holiday, a second home or a commercial investment opportunity.
The initiative by the Italian government offers some exceptional
opportunities in Italy for the visionary property
investor/developer, who takes the long view regarding property
investment, and also has fairly deep pockets. Anyone who has
dreamed of owning an iconic building steeped in history may be able
to realise that dream as there are some of the most unique
properties appearing on the market in Italy. The initiative was
started in 2015 when the government hoped to ease the economic
crisis by selling off some of the most unusual and interesting
historical buildings that had been abandoned and/or had fallen into
disrepair.
