Editorial Policy

Editorial Independence

Buy1EuroHouse is an independently operated website. We are not affiliated with, sponsored by, or paid by any Italian municipality, regional government, or EU institution.

We earn revenue through guide sales on third-party platforms (Gumroad) and affiliate arrangements where disclosed. Affiliate relationships do not influence our editorial decisions, program status assessments, or factual reporting.

We do not accept payment in exchange for positive coverage of any specific town, region, or program. Our program status assessments are based solely on verified information.

Accuracy Standards

All factual claims about €1 house program rules, costs, deadlines, and eligibility must be traceable to a primary source (municipality website, government regulation, or first-hand buyer report) before publication.

We distinguish clearly between confirmed facts ("The municipality requires a €3,000 deposit") and estimates or projections ("renovation costs typically range from €20,000 to €80,000"). Estimates are always labeled as such.

When information is uncertain or disputed, we say so explicitly rather than defaulting to the more optimistic interpretation.

Tone & Framing

€1 house programs are a genuine opportunity, but they are not "too good to be true" and they are not "scams." We aim for a middle path: honest, practical, and neither sensationalist nor dismissive.

We do not use phrases like "easy money," "passive income from European property," or similar. We do not minimize renovation obligations, legal complexity, or language barriers.

We acknowledge when programs have failed buyers or when municipalities have not honored commitments. These cases are documented in our news section when verified.

Corrections Policy

When we publish incorrect information and become aware of the error, we correct it promptly. Corrections are noted in the article with a dated correction notice rather than silently editing the original text.

Readers can report errors through our Contact page. We aim to investigate and respond to correction requests within 5 business days.

We do not retroactively delete articles that contain errors. We correct them in place with transparent disclosure.

Use of AI Tools

We use AI language tools (including GPT-based models) to help structure, draft, and edit content. This is disclosed here in our editorial policy.

AI-generated drafts are never published without human editorial review. A qualified editor checks AI output against primary sources before publication.

We do not use AI to fabricate quotes, invent buyer testimonials, or manufacture statistics. All specific claims require a verifiable source.

Where AI tools have generated content that was later found to be inaccurate, the correction policy above applies.
