Antonio Milo, the Neapolitan Member of Parliament of the Gruppo Misto party is reviving the idea of one or more real-estate lotteries to revitalize the hotel sales sector. Milo has told the Ministry of Finance that the general economic crisis has affected the construction and property market in a particularly serious way, resulting in some cases in the lack of interest in the purchase of real estate, in particular buildings intended for use as hotels; "The owners of hotel businesses in the province of Bolzano who find it necessary to sell a hotel, having failed to find purchasers for the reasons stated above, have been thinking of alternative solutions instead of the traditional ways of selling real-estate," he stated.
