The country has recently joined the 1 Euro Houses initiative. The goal is to enhance an urban heritage that was slowly disappearing. The idea is to put old houses for sale to be restored at a symbolic price, with the obligation – on the part of buyers – to provide for the work within a short period of time.
As indicated by the extraordinary commissioner of the municipality Francesco Fragale:
“The goal of selling homes for 1 euro is to face the phenomenon of depopulation. This includes the recovery of the housing function of the historic center, redeveloping the territory from an urban point of view and favoring the opening of tourist-receptive activities, shops or craft shops in a suggestive location.”
Our team hopes that this project will also bring good results, like so many similar projects in the Sicilian region. For those interested in buying a house for 1 euro, Calatafimi Segesta is a good opportunity. The project is open to both Italian and foreign citizens.
