Anyone investing in Europe?

[Phil Falcini]

I have been looking into investing in Europe; specifically Italy or Spain. The goal is to buy something now that we can STR and in about 10-12 years live there for 3-6 months a year.

Normally, I would state the research I have done, what I have learned and ask very specific questions for the community. I am deciding not to do that now in an effort to prevent steering/narrowing the conversation and see what comes.

If you have looked into or have invested in Europe, would you please share what you have learned?
