These houses often require significant renovations, and buyers must commit to completing them within a specified timeframe – a potentially costly endeavor.
The 1 euro house schemes come with certain conditions, often involving a deposit or several thousand euros to guarantee the commitment to renovate the property you wish to acquire.
