Here we are, the start of Autumn 2022. The weather is still good here in Piedmont but in about 20 hours I’ll be climbing into the car with my beautiful wife and heading to the UK, to the rain and cold. It’s been 3 years since we’ve been back, Covid is over and I’m all out of excuses.
I don’t like going back, Italy is our home now, 20 years here. But we intend to make the best of it, look up some old friends and reacquaint ourselves with some lost relatives. Oh, and eat Indian food!
2022 so far
Wow, what a year it’s been so far. We’ve seen busy years in the Piedmont real estate market but nothing like this. I only finely got to take some serious time off last month with a short trip to the Dolomites, but not without offending a few people that came and wanted my attention. I apologise, but it was that or end up in the home of overworked people that just couldn’t say ‘no’.
Changes!
Some changes are coming with Langhe Property. We’re streamlining a little and getting serious again about video making. I really hope you’ll enjoy our YouTube content, learn from it and get some laughs. I’ll have someone helping me who I think is one of the best video makers in the region. I’ll leave you to judge. We’re just gathering all the right equipment and I have an exciting new ‘prop’ that I’ve been working on for a couple of months. I’m really excited to introduce it but for now, you’ll have to wait. Thanks so much for all the ‘likes’, subscribers and comments on my YouTube channel. It’s much appreciated.
I’m also shifting my main focus back to the Langhe area so expect to see a lot more houses in the Barolo area and close by. They’ll also be some subtle and useful changes to my website and App to make things easier.
News & Media
We’ve had a lot of media attention. This month I’ll be on UK TV - A Place in the Sun, and I’ve just done an interview with The Wall Street Journal. That will be completed in a couple of weeks. They’re also interviewing some of my clients about their experience of buying here.
But for now, I’m closed until around the 10th of October. This is time I really need to see my family, so forgive me if I can’t be here to attend to your needs. I hope you’ll return very soon.
It’s a really exciting time here in Piedmont. Never have so many houses sold in the Langhe, Roero and Monferrato. Let me know what you’re looking for and stay in touch. I get inundated with enquiries so let me know you’re serious and we’ll find just want you’re looking for.
Meet & Talk
If you aren’t sure about the region - where to buy, the buying process, etc - why not do my ‘Talk & Tour’? It’s a lot of fun, I promise. I can drive you around so you get to know the area, we eat food, do some wine tasting and I promise at the end of it your heart will be stolen by the Langhe. More info here.. I’m sorry I can longer meet up or do Zoom calls without a consultancy fee. By all means, contact me to ask about my very reasonable fees to have a chat or meet.
I look forward to seeing you or hearing from you later in the month.
