Have you all paid the tax on your second homes either in Italy or abroad? The tax offices in Italy and the UK are collaborating and there are big fines if you don't pay and they catch you.

  Ah Bella, Italy gets in your blood and even though she has spat you out over the border, you just can’t forget her can you? Things are tough all over Europe at the moment. Italy has its problems and France is a beautiful country but I’d rather sink with the Italians than swim with the French. Are there really no forums where you can indulge your love for France? Or is your hatred of Italy so much more important to you, that you have to come here to vent your spleen? France has now got an elected left wing government, which will no doubt do its best to throw a spanner in Europe’s works. It better be an accurate throw or it might just bounce back and give France a black eye.

  Bella Caroline, I don’t understand, if you loath Italy so much and are so in love with France, why do you even bother to cast your pearls of wisdom here? Can’t you find a forum for Francophiles? I always thought that Ventimiglia’s problem was that it was full of French tourists. Your posts betray the bitterness of someone who failed to make a go of things in Italy but I’m pleased for you that you have found a better place for yourself to live.

Many questions here get no answer or a torrent of different and conflicting answers, some plainly wrong. Much better to ask the locals than rely on information from some anonymous person sat behind a keyboard who might be posting from Albania or even worse France!

  Oh Flip, you don’t actually believe anything you read on here do you?   This forum is the equivalent of  “Freddie Star ate my Hamster”.   If you really want answers to your questions . go to a proper forum

    If Italy is such a dreadful place why do so many of you want to live here?   My point, which you have missed, is that Italy knows it is corrupt but people in the UK think they have no corruption or that, somehow, British corruption and nepotism is better.   Don’t you have a saying about people in glass houses?

  I make no excuse for the Mafia, indeed I said it was rife. It is also recognized, as this thread shows, not only in Italy but also the rest of the world.   The corruption in the UK is different  and not as well documented but anyone who thinks the UK is not corrupt is fooling themselves.   There are organized gangs in every major city in the UK. There is even a program on the TV http://www.crimeandinvestigation.co.uk/shows/at-home-with-the-noonans.html?mckv=sYmTlHt6l&pcrid=10927088909&plid=&kword=noonan&utm_source=PPC_Adwords&utm_medium=cpc&utm_term=noonan&utm_campaign=Noonans+-+Show+Characters&ps=1 .   And do you know the real truth behind the death of David Kelly http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Kelly_(weapons_expert)#Doubts_about_the_suicide_verdict.2C_and_alternative_theories_for_Kelly.27s_death . Or do you all believe what you are fed by the Murdock press and its cronies.LOL

In Italy its called the mafia, it is rife, and is aknowledged, investgated and prosecuted.   In the UK its called the old boy network or the Tory party and gets voted into government.

Please paste inside the following box using the keyboard (Ctrl+V) and hit OK   Managed it at last, simple enough I suppose but simpler still on other sites   Can I ask how the original poster found out that they had bought illegaly? Did it only come to light when reselling? Is the illegality that your house is still registered as a farmhouse although you did not buy the required amount of land with it? Is it not possible to re-register it with a change of use at the comune now? Sorry lots of questions
