For many years now I have been a member of first the Italy mag forums then this community. The forums have been invaluable and I have gained so much knowledge.

Remeber that there is a huge amount of info on the old forums http://www.italymag.co.uk/forums/ Although you would want to update some much of it is still relevant Good luck
Although they are not near you I would like to mention http://www.canidinessuno.it/ for anyone else interested. They are in Olbia
an example Page 112 your ass belongs on a statue Hai un culo di marmo ( You have a marble ass) Not your standard "Under the Tuscan sun" !
"If you find ANY Bank that will lend you money without proof of the ability to pay it back, let me know....Unless you have been living on Mars for the last two years you will know that there has been a World wide Banking crisis and equity alone does not mean that Banks will lend against it (it's called Security).... the last thing they need is another repossesed property to get rid of. If you do not have a Mortgage on it try and get a Business loan for a B&B and use the House as collateral, maybe....or start buying Lotto tickets.." Is it really neccessary to answer in this way?
As a well respected thinker once said "The world is an infinitely complex place". There is no chance of being able to forecast forex rates in the medium to long term. All you can do is to follow your current beliefs and plan for the downside. It is also especially interesting to note that years ago no-one was talking about bying a property anticipating making a gain through the Euro. Count the many "self" congratulatory articles about it now though.
Thanks Gala and Capo Boi yes, Gromit I did have a look at that thread but I was hoping someone had some more up to date info. Castel I need a draft drawn on an italian bank and I don't have time to go to italy.
Thanks Alan I will post if it is. Shas, I don't see him on that forum but then again I don't want to spend too much time looking there as it sometimes seems to be a case of déjà vu repeating itself. if you get my drift
What do you do for a living Capo Boi?
Try http://casa.it/ to get a broad idea but to save massive amonts of time narrow your search down to a region then a province and then a commune first Good luck
