who is eligible for the 1 dollar house program?

The $1 House Program is open to anyone—locals or foreigners—who is willing and financially able to renovate abandoned homes offered by towns in countries like Italy, Japan, and the U.S. Eligibility mainly depends on your commitment to restore the property within a fixed timeline, provide a renovation plan, follow local building rules, and show proof of funds. Buyers must also pay a refundable security deposit, ensure the renovation is completed on time, and maintain the cultural style of the house. The program isn’t limited by nationality; it’s designed for anyone who wants to invest in restoring rural or historic communities.
