They bought an entire village but what happened next? When they come up for sale, lots of villages and ghost towns receive media coverage on TV, in print and of course online.
Once the sale takes place, that can lead to follow up coverage and in many cases the new owner is keen to publicise their purchase and their plans for the future.
In those circumstances – where the owner has sought publicity – we've compiled case studies to help prospective village buyers understand the opportunites that exist (and also a few of the pitfalls to beware of) when considering such a purchase.
If you own a ghost town or village and want to share your story, please get in touch with us at Villageio.
