Here we are faced with a particular situation“he told CNN Travel . “the abandoned area extends through the oldest part of the village. Abandoned houses are built side by side in the same streets. Some even have the same entrance, the same door“
“That’s why we welcome families, groups of friends, people who know each other and investors, to join forces. We encourage them to buy more than one house to make a real impact and to breathe new life and vote for these places.”
How the 1 Euro Houses Project works in Bisaccia
We give them to them provided that those who buy them take charge of the renovation and consequent safety. In this way the historic center of Bisaccia would regain its original décor.
Bisaccia’s advantage over the municipalities that have already joined casea1euro, is that the municipality itself has ownership of all the empty houses abandoned years ago by residents who have left in search of a better future. So in this case the sale will be simplified as the transaction is direct with the Municipality.
You win the house is committed to renovation for residential and tourist use, otherwise the principle automatically lapses. It will have to respect the architecture present in the rest of the historic center. The projects will be evaluated by the technicians of the municipality who will correct errors or give the ok.
Those who sign this type of contract will have the privilege of living in a historic part of the country and consequently increase the number of inhabitants, increase the possibility of having more services for citizens. It is easy to see the economic benefits for businesses, and it is equally easy to predict an extremely positive impact on the community as a whole, because where there are more people there are certainly more opportunities for development.
Households, craft or commercial enterprises, interested in entrepreneurial activity; and finally, cultural, musical, sports associations and other non-profit organizations interested in real estate as well as venues for their activities, everyone can enter the historic center of Bisaccia.
