01What exactly do I receive?+
You receive a digital PDF through Gumroad. The Premium edition is 108 pages and covers the program model, participating-town research, legal and notary context, renovation costs, financing, rental considerations, country comparisons, templates, resources and FAQs.
02Is the guide only about Italy?+
Italy is the deepest part of the guide because it has the most established €1-house history. The Premium 2026 edition also contains dedicated research chapters for France, Spain, Greece and Portugal, plus a Croatia and wider-Europe watchlist.
03Can I read part of it before buying?+
Yes. The interactive preview above shows the first 8 real pages, including the cover, editor's note, introduction, contents, how the program works, and the program's core pros and cons.
04How is the file delivered?+
Checkout and delivery are handled securely by Gumroad. After purchase, Gumroad provides access to the digital file using the email address entered at checkout. There is no shipping or waiting period.
05Does the guide guarantee that a town is currently accepting applications?+
No. Municipal programs, deadlines and property lists change locally. The guide is a research and decision-making tool; buyers should always verify live status through the relevant municipality before paying, travelling or submitting documents.
06Is this legal, tax or immigration advice?+
No. The guide provides educational context and research prompts. A local notary, lawyer, commercialista, immigration professional and qualified building technician should confirm the facts that apply to your purchase and personal circumstances.
07What is the refund policy?+
The guide is a downloadable digital product and purchases are final under the site's digital-product terms. Review the 8-page preview, package comparison and terms before completing checkout.
