I dont know if its the same in ltally as in Greece but there, if you get a building permit, it does not expire until the building is finished. Therefore you see many unfinished but inhabited buildings of simply a few pillars in a field. Its simply to maintain an active builders permit

Also yeah i know... those are actual ruins but I ended up writing an informational post instead of just a joke as originally intended

That's a cool fact!

My geography teacher told me that unfinished buildings have tax advantages in Greece so people leave rebar protruding through the typical flat white roofs to lower taxes while inhabiting the house. This is maybe a myth, the loophole doesn't seem to exist in current Greek law.
