The couple has set up a flourishing business buying properties, restyling and reselling them, ready-to-occupy, helping foreign buyers every step of the way. They hunt for old houses in historical villages in need of a makeover, which once renovated make the perfect summer getaway. The BEFORE picture: The couple find old houses in need of a makeover. The old properties the pair handles are located in small towns where centuries-old traditions survive. I really like old houses and the idea of giving them a second chance: especially when they are abandoned buildings rich with history.
