Pack your bags. A town in Italy is selling homes for just over US$1


HONG KONG (SCMP): There is no doubting Hong Kong’s reputation as the world’s most expensive city to own a house in. But halfway across the world in the town of Mussomeli, in central Sicily, residents are selling abandoned houses for 1 (US$1.12) each.

People may see it as a cruel joke, but Valeria Sorce, a property agent in Mussomeli told the Post that more than 100 houses in the town’s old quarter were indeed being sold as advertised on the website, www.case1euro.it.
