    Welcome Guys!
    If I make it down to Sicily this year I’d love to come and visit your home and talk about the real cost of euro homes. So many people think they are really just a few euros and good to go.
    Good luck on RUclips and see you around!

      @@MrNoncredo Good question! Here in S. Italy it’s not how closely you follow the letter of the law, but who you know. We had an Architect who had in the local Comune. Not once did we have an Inspector on the property. The Architect assured them that everything was done properly and they bought it. Also, yes, masonry walls cost more to erect than the typical frame walls seen in America.
