Dear International Living Reader,
Capri has the name recognition, but property there goes for $1,600 per square foot!
Steenie Harvey tells me you can get the same dramatic Italian scenery nearby for a fraction of the cost...if you know where to look.
She found a two-story villa on acres of land for $125,000. See what else she found below.

Dear International Living Reader,
You’ll still find donkey paths, rustic fountains, and secret passages in the romantic hill towns of southern Italy.
It’s one of Steenie Harvey’s favorite haunts. She says you can also find apartments there for next to nothing...great news for anyone dreaming of wine, pasta, and a little place in the sun to call your own.
Steenie tells you all about it below.

I am here in Cancun, Mexico, at IL's Ultimate Event, showing attendees how to find Italy’s best property bargains. During my talk about village homes at prices that just seem too good to be true, I got a few suspicious looks from the attendees.

As I’ve discovered recently, Italy’s “heel” province of Puglia is a treasure trove of bargain coastal property and unique countryside homes. To find the best deals, however, you’ll need a car, because the local bus and train networks won’t take you to Italy’s most interesting corners.
