If you are going to go there and invest, spend some time looking around, and speak to the real people on the ground, people who live there rather than slick harry sales people, who spin the yarn.

If you want information from people who live and work there, and will continue to live and work there please be in touch. If you need good legal council when you are there, please use the site chambers and partners dot com as you can choose from a list of alot. Independent and impartial.

Good luck and enjoy la dolce vita.
Hello, yes, la dolce vita, for sure. We spent 2 weeks seeking out an area to move to within 2 years, permanently full time. As far as lawyers, what is "site chambers"? I am from America, perhaps terminology differs. We are not sure whether it is better to buy privately or from a realtor. I speak the Sicilian dialect, however, not good enough for legal terms at all and contracts. We like the west coast and will go in a year or less to find a home, after having looked in July.
Thanks for any help!
MaryAnn
