From €26k: Your foothold in Europe
The Friday Fix 🧰

Happy Friday, friend!
The idea of "buying a home in Europe" can sound intimidatingly grand, like a dream reserved for lottery winners or retirees with hefty portfolios. It feels like a huge, all-or-nothing leap. But what if it’s not? What if the dream doesn't start with a sprawling villa, but with a €26,000 apartment in a quiet Italian village? A small investment isn't just about buying a small space; it's about buying a start. It’s the foothold, the base camp, the tangible 'yes' that turns a vague "someday" into a very real "I'm doing this." It’s the most affordable and powerful way to buy a ticket to a completely new life.
But before we begin, here’s an opportunity we think you won’t want to miss!
