Not a Joke: Here’s How to Buy a $1 House in Italy Right the F*ck Now

Questo articolo è disponibile anche in: Italiano (Italian)

Remember last year when the country of Italy literally gave 100 castles away for free? Unfortunately, there’s been a sharp price increase, but the good news is you can now buy one of about 200 homes in the Italian town of Ollolai for about a dollar, TIME reports.

To be fair, the homes actually cost 1 Euro, which is currently the equivalent of $1.25. Oh, also, if you do buy a house for $1.25, you have to commit to refurbishing it within three years … which will likely cost about $25,000.

Per CNN, the Italian initiative is meant to bring people back to the beautiful, historic town on the Sardinian island.

But — you guessed it — there’s a catch.
