Aside from the beautiful landscape and stunning coast, Italy is becoming more accessible – cheap airlines, more air access, an increase in the number of road and rail links and an improvement of existing transport infrastructure has led to Italy becoming a far more accessible nation from the European mainland and from the UK.
Italy is a tried and tested favourite among visitors and expatriates from across the world and there will always be a level of market demand for both tourism and homes for sale to overseas buyers.
Italy manages to combine a fantastic culture, excellently temperate climate, delicious and world famous cuisine, with a range of fascinating and fun cities as well as some of the most beautiful countryside in the world. Making it a nation unlike any other and a place that is timeless and ever-growing in its appeal.
Certain areas of Italy - particularly in the far south of the country - remain undiscovered and under-explored, meaning there are pockets of the country that represent emerging market potential for large scale property investors, or which represent an affordable entry into the property market for second home or retirement property seekers.
Finally as an investor or home buyer you can find everything and anything in terms of property in Italy. You can buy a lakeside villa near Lake Maggiore, or a city pied-à-terre in Milan, a ski chalet in Sestriere, a farmhouse in Tuscany or even an island retreat in Sardinia!
