Anyone thinking of moving to Italy?

A mountainous region in Italy is offering €100,000 to move there. But there’s a catch | CNN

The northern Italian region known as Trentino, or officially the Autonomous Province of Trento, will pay residents of Italy or Italians living abroad to renovate one of the many abandoned houses in the region where the Dolomites meet the Alps.

100,000 euro grant to do so....for small towns.

Not a bad deal.

I thought I saw a little quip about Italians abroad being amongst those on the list to allowed to be given 100,000 euros as well as Italian residents from other parts of the peninsula. Are these the only two categories of people or are non-Italian Europeans from nearby E.U. countries, U.K. (Italy has long had a pretty sizable British expat community since the early 19th century, particularly in Rome), or here in the USA and Canada?

Yeah didn't catch that part. Italians or Italians abroad.
I'm assuming meaning Italian citizenship.

Oh well...was nice to dream for a moment. Lol

Me and some buddies looked into buying one of those villas for $1. That’s something we may do down the road but it’s expensive to restore to it’s original glory and people we know who have done it said someone has to be there 24/7 overseeing it or people will never show up for work. It has to be done in a certain time frame so it has to be managed.

@CapitalCitySaint ?

I’m in!

Not sure about the 10 year commitment though. Would need to research a little more.

 

[Det. Brees]

We were looking into it a couple years ago. Then it was for Americans. The problem was finding someone to do the renovations on the home and the material yo do it.

Nah. Rachel Ray is over there.

Sure, but compared to who's over here?.....

 

[Madmarsha]

Nah. Rachel Ray is over there.

Is she? Ra Ray is, um, not quite her old self.

Of course, neither am I -- need to start fasting again -- so shut my fat mouth.

They said Dolemite region, right?

Just got off of a video call with an old friend of mine who’s been living in Italy for the last few years.. She absolutely loves it, but unfortunately recently had to relocate back to America (California) for work reasons.. ive never been to Italy, though it’s at the very top of my list.. i do qualify for citizenship by descent, but id never move there permanently since i am now too used to super-cheap Asian prices .. Also fwiw everyone i know who’s spent time in Italy seems to love Florence.. which wasn’t really on my radar but there must be something to it .

I sure hope my daughter doesn't see this... she's already applied for dual citizenship as my great-grandfather was from Sicily.. I'm not sure how all that works, but she seems fairly confident.
