@ambymathur: Renovating in Italy is not for the faint of heart: 1. Often previous owners will have committed “abuses” .ie done things without proper permitting and you can into issues when doing your own renovation 2. You often can’t change anythingggg without a permit, and it can take a year, sometimes more, to get basic things approved 3. Southern Italian contractors are often VERY flaky (it’s like no one wants to work here) which can cause further project delays 🫠 luckily, my husband has a construction company so that’s saved us a lot of time and money! But we still have to hire specialists for things and that takes patience 😇 Bonus: your countryside home will become full of animals during the renovation! Mice, birds, geckos, foxes, you name it 😆 Follow along for more updates as we continue to build our dream home in the Italian countryside ❤️ . . . . #ambyadventures #homerenovation #movetoitaly #italiancountryside #oneeurohouses one euro houses, Italian countryside, home renovation italy, move to italy, Americans in italy, buying property in italy
