Living the Dream: House Hunting in Italy

DAN RUBINSTEIN
About this episode
Anyone who has ever strolled through the streets of Rome, ridden a gondola through the canals of Venice, or tasted freshly made pasta in Sicily has had this thought: I could get used to this. On this episode, Dan speaks with a quartet of experts on all things Italian real estate: Diletta Giorgolo, head of residential for Sotheby’s International Realty in Rome; designer and Chicagoan-turned-Milanese Eric Egan; Emily FitzRoy of Bellini Travel; and YouTuber (and Tuscan homeowner) Julie Montagu, Viscountess Hinchingbrooke. Everything is on the table, from the appeal of the so-called one-euro homes to the White Lotus effect, plus all the layman needs to know to make the leap.
