Ask Sal

Honest answers about buying a home in Italy.

Buying a home in Italy is the dream. The fine print is where people get lost - that's where I come in.
I'm Salvatore. In Italy that's my name; in the US and Australia, everyone just called me Sal. I'm an Italian who spent years in your world, then came home to Umbria — the green heart of Italy, the quieter hills right next to Tuscany.

This channel answers the real questions foreign buyers ask:
• Can Americans actually buy a house in Italy?
• Is Umbria really cheaper than Tuscany?
• What's the catch with a €100k casale?
• How do visas and the 90-day rule work?

No hype, no glossy nonsense - just honest answers, real homes, and what it actually takes to own a stone farmhouse with olive trees and a view. If you've ever pictured a slower life under an Umbrian sun, pull up a chair.
