@Nicholas Messinese, It's possible to compute the rental vacancy rate for various markets within the country by using data from the American Community SurveyThe formula is as followsUnfortunately it is not possible to calculate vacancy rates by aggregates such as bedrooms or price since the ACS does not provide the data needed. 

Has anyone purchased property in Italy as an American?

I get anywhere from a 15%-25% raise when I jump jobs, which is much better than the 3% most of Americans get every year obviously.

It's actually not that hard to buy a house using 100% OP or bank money but there are always out of pocket expenses as you Americans call them that can't be avoided.For example if you find a good enough deal you might get a lender to give you most of the money and get the seller to leave s small amount in for 12 or 24 months.
