From Roman history, Renaissance art and modern romance through to Calabria’s white sand beaches, wild mountains and delicious food to die for, it would be difficult to find ten good reasons not to buy in Italy. Here’s why you should be tempted:
1. Blissful bargains: Italy need not be expensive. Act quickly and you could snap up property coming onto the market in the idyllic and extremely affordable Calabria.
2. North, South, East, and West: Italy offers something for everyone with enough variety to entertain you on a short trip, or for the rest of your life.
3. Southern sunshine: In search of the place in the sun? You won’t head far wrong with Southern Italy for a perfect climate with year-round rays.
4. Bel Paese: The “Beautiful Country” as Italians call it is overflowing with natural beauty; lemon trees, olive groves, craggy cliffs and some of the best beaches in the world.
5. Italian spirit: Passionate, warm and friendly with one of the most musical languages to listen to, the Italian people are one of the country’s biggest assets.
6. A stone’s throw: You can fly to Italy, even its Southern most tip, from many UK airports in under three hours. It’s incredibly close to home.
7. The fabulous food: Do we really need to mention the food? Authentic Italian food has to be tasted to be believed with every town bursting with excellent restaurants.
8. Living it up: Italy does the ‘good life’ better than anyone, for an improved quality of life you couldn’t pick a better place.
9. Culture vulture: From food to football to fashion, from the Roman Empire to the Renaissance, Italian culture should satisfy even the most hard-to-please visitor.
10. Dip your toe: Considered buying a holiday let? A place in Italy is a particularly low risk way to dip your toes into property investment.
