I have always been interested in purchasing property for sale in Italy. My grandmother was from Italy and she moved to the states when she was just five years old. She had made many trips back home and had always wanted to someday go back and live there, but she never did. I think that when she knew her children and grandchildren would not be able to come with her, she put her own dreams aside to stay with her family.

My husband family was from Spain and he had been there to visit many times and would always talk about having a vacation home there. I was open to looking at property for sale in Spain as long as he was open to looking at property for sale in Italy. We were both looking forward to purchasing to new vacation homes and contacted agents in both places to start the search.

I used an agent in Italy that knows of my family that is still there and was able to find several properties for sale in Italy that I would love to own. We are traveling there next month to check them out. The agent that sent us information on property for sale in Spain, made arrangements for us to see them all the week after we leave Italy. We are hoping to own two new homes by the end of the year.
