Following Trump’s victory in the recently concluded US elections, an Italian village is offering a special deal to Americans looking for an escape after former president, Donald Trump was re-elected for a second term.
Ollolai – located in central Sardinia – is one of the many rural Italian towns offering homes for just one euro ($1.06) in a bid to revitalize their economies.
After Trump was elected, the community released a statement on its website reading: “Are you worn out by global politics? Looking to embrace a more balanced lifestyle while securing new opportunities? It’s time to start building your European escape in the stunning paradise of Sardinia.”
The village claims to be “surrounded by incredible cuisine” while being “immersed in a community with ancient traditions.”
When searching for their new homes, Americans can either choose a space to renovate or one that’s “move-in-ready.”
Finding Contractors
Furthermore, the website notes that locals will be available to step in and help with practicalities such as “arranging viewings” and “finding contractors.”
The mayor of Ollolai, Francesco Columbu, said their website was built to appeal to Americans who voted in this year’s election.
“We just really want, and will focus on, Americans above all,” he told CNN. “We can’t of course ban people from other countries to apply, but Americans will have a fast-track procedure.

We are betting on them to help us revive the village, they are our winning card.”
In addition, he said: “Of course, we can’t specifically mention the name of one US president who just got elected, but we all know that he’s the one from whom many Americans want to get away from now and leave the country.’
Columbu also explained what the three offerings in Ollolai will be: $1 homes in need of renovations, move-in ready homes for $105,000 (€100,000 euros), and free temporary homes to certain people who can work remotely.
However, Ollolai has a population of roughly 1,300 people and is known for its abundant water features and a church built by Basilian monks.
