May 20, 2009 - Homes and Villas Abroad.com has recently engaged an eight-member sales team to spearhead its Calabria operations – four of whom will work on and around the Ionian seaboard on the east and the other four of whom will be based on the opposite Tyrrhenian coast.
The expansion will see it enter into partnerships with a number of Calabria real estate companies, allowing Homes and Villas Abroad.com to showcase an even greater range of Calabria property for sale to suit all tastes and budgets, from Euro 50,000 beach apartments to majestic villas costing Euro 1million and over.
Homes and Villas Abroad.com marketing manager Ainsley Okoro said: "Foreign tourism has really taken off in Calabria in recent years, and with 500 miles of beautiful shores and year-round sunshine that comes as little surprise.
“Resorts such as Tropea, Diamante, Parghelia, Praia a Mare, Cirella and San Nicola Arcella offer marvellous beaches while for nature lovers, the hinterland has three national parks – La Sila, Aspromonte and Il Pollino. In other words, Calabria is an up-and-coming region with almost irresistible appeal.
“Despite the current global economic climate, we are still seeing significant interest in the property in Italy market. And at Homes and Villas Abroad we firmly believe Calabria property continues to represent fantastic value to foreign investors, with real estate a fraction of the prices still being seen in places such as Tuscany, Umbria and the Amalfi coast."
Calabria, at the "toe" of Italy's boot-shaped landmass, lies at the centre of what is popularly known as the Mezzogiorno (Italian for “midday", referring to its almost non-stop sunshine).
