Italy Has Many Tempting Options, How Do You Choose?

Venice Versus Florence Versus Rome Versus Abruzzo

As we’ve been reporting recently, for us and Abruzzo, Italy, it was love at first sight.

This region really is the under-the-Tuscan-sun dream come true… for a fraction the cost of the same kind of lifestyle in other, more trumpeted corners of this glorious country.

That’s why we’ve decided to base our first-ever Live and Invest in Italy Conference in this unsung and undiscovered region.

However, I want to acknowledge an important point that likely has occurred to you as you’ve been reading about the charms and benefits of a new life in Abruzzo over the past several days…

This is hardly the only option for living or retiring in Italy!

I figure, though, that if you’ve been dreaming about a new life—full- or maybe part-time—in Italy… you already know a lot about most of the rest of this country.

I don’t think you need me to remind you of the romantic appeals of Venice… Florence… or Rome, for example…

These are all places that you should see if you can… and that could, indeed, be the place for you to base your new life in Italy.

Real estate values in Venice rival those of Paris—US$4,769 per square meter out-of-the-way to more than US$23,844 per square meter overlooking the Grand Canal. On our most recent visit, we noticed one “student rental” advertised for US$954 per month… and, from the photos and description, I wouldn’t say this would be a place where most retirees would want to live.

If you’re an art-lover, perhaps it’s Florence that features in your Italian daydreams. And, yes, living here (maybe part-time… decamping when the summer tourist mobs descend) could seem like heaven…

Like Venice, Florence would be an expensive place to call home. You could, though, base yourself in more affordable (and homier, in my experience) Pisa and visit Michelangelo’s hometown as often as you wanted. Florence is but an hour from Pisa via autostrade…

Living in Rome, surely, you’d never run out of fun and interesting ways to spend your time… and, if you’re a city-lover, this could be the choice for you… one of the world’s most historic, most cultured, most recognized cities… and more affordable than Paris or London…

Venice, Florence, Rome… and many other less-well-known choices in Italy from Pisa to Ravenna… and, of course, Abruzzo…

So many tempting options…

I’d say, though, that if Italy is calling you, you really have just one choice for what to do right now.

Pull out your calendar and mark down these dates: Oct. 17–19, 2018.

That’s when the entire Live and Invest Overseas Italy team will be convened in one place for three days to introduce you to all of your best current options and opportunities for living, retiring, owning real estate, starting a business, earning an income, reinventing your life in Italy… and finally realizing la dolce vita adventure of your dreams…

At our first-ever Live and Invest in Italy Conference our team of on-the-ground experts and expats will showcase every appealing face of Italy… and then walk you through everything you need to know to make your new life there a reality… whatever shape you imagine that new life to take.

Our team of pros will address and answer every question to do with everything from establishing residency and finding a place to live to opening a bank account and learning to parla italiano…

Buying a home… renovating an historic property… shipping your household goods… shopping health insurance… and every other kind of insurance you might need…

Registering a new business… prospects for finding a job…

Making friends… getting involved in your new community…

Bringing your pet with you… or maybe adopting a new Italian pet once you’ve settled in.

Like every conference we host, this one will be the Full Monty. We’ll cover the good, the bad, the challenging, and the maddening of living, investing, and doing business in this country…

While introducing you to every professional you need to know to make your move safely and with confidence…

And many current expats in Italy eager to help the next ones in line.

Kathleen Peddicord has covered the live, retire, and do business overseas beat for more than 30 years and is considered the world's foremost authority on these subjects. She has traveled to more than 75 countries, invested in real estate in 21, established businesses in 7, renovated historic properties in 6, and educated her children in 4.

Kathleen has moved children, staff, enterprises, household goods, and pets across three continents, from the East Coast of the United States to Waterford, Ireland... then to Paris, France... next to Panama City, where she has based her Live and Invest Overseas business. Most recently, Kathleen and her husband Lief Simon are dividing their time between Panama and Paris.

Kathleen was a partner with Agora Publishing’s International Living group for 23 years. In that capacity, she opened her first office overseas, in Waterford, Ireland, where she managed a staff of up to 30 employees for more than 10 years. Kathleen also opened, staffed, and operated International Living publishing and real estate marketing offices in Panama City, Panama; Granada, Nicaragua; Roatan, Honduras; San Miguel de Allende, Mexico; Quito, Ecuador; and Paris, France.

Kathleen moved on from her role with Agora in 2007 and launched her Live and Invest Overseas group in 2008. In the years since, she has built Live and Invest Overseas into a successful, recognized, and respected multi-million-dollar business that employs a staff of 35 in Panama City and dozens of writers and other resources around the world.

Kathleen has been quoted by The New York Times, Money magazine, MSNBC, Yahoo Finance, the AARP, and beyond. She has appeared often on radio and television (including Bloomberg and CNBC) and speaks regularly on topics to do with living, retiring, investing, and doing business around the world.

In addition to her own daily e-letter, the Overseas Opportunity Letter, with a circulation of more than 300,000 readers, Kathleen writes regularly for U.S. News & World Report and Forbes.

Her newest book, "How to Retire Overseas: Everything You Need to Know to Live Well (for Less) Abroad," published by Penguin Random House, is the culmination of decades of personal experience living and investing around the world.
