You'd only be able to put it on ebay Italy anyway so that may not help. You can put it on this site under Items for Sale or Free (look on the right). Otherwise there are various sites that will let you advertise for free. Just do a google search for property in Italy or real estate in italy and you'll find lots.

"You'd only be able to put it on ebay Italy anyway so that may not help ........" You could always get a friend in the UK to put it on ebay there There are a couple of Italian Properties on ebay - one is well written - the other fails as it is written by an 'English is not my mother tongue' person - so I suggest you write it for her http://shop.ebay.co.uk/i.html?_nkw=italy++house&_sacat=0&_sop=3&_dmpt=Non_Fiction&_odkw=italy+property+house&_osacat=0&_trksid=p3286.c0.m270.l1313
PERHAPS SHE DOES NEED AN AGENT

Alma, I understand that she is reluctant to use an agent; however, in her case and due to the urgency of the matter, she may really need one. Can you talk to her and explain? Perhaps you know some reliable agents in the area who do have an international clientele. She may need to understand that the agent's commission can be added to the price of the property.
I did ask her if it wouldn't

In reply to PERHAPS SHE DOES NEED AN AGENT by Gala Placidia
I did ask her if it wouldn't be better to use an agent but she didn't seem to think this was necessary and I just thought that she knows a lot better than me about how things work in Italy. I just wanted to help her in any way I can as she and her family have been so generous and helpful to us. I do feel a bit out of my depth with this one though. I wont actually see her again till the end of August but can email her family or ring her if I need to contact her.
Two website you could consider...

That’s very kind and thoughtful of you to help her Alma. I know of so many people that have bought property via via. In ‘our’ small mountain village it seems that this is the only way that property is bought and sold. When we were there in Many/June, we happened to mention to a local that we were considering a bigger property and by the end of the day, we had a choice of five properties to view. There were no ‘for sale’ signs up so we would never have known. You could try here or this one
There is small fee to pay to advertise the property. Where in Liguria is the property?
Thankyou Casa. I can ask my

Thankyou Casa. I can ask my neighbour if she will consider advertising on specialist sites. The house is almost on the Tuscany border, half an hour from La Spezia and within easy reach of the Cinque Terre coastline. It is in a very peaceful hamlet in the Val di Vara but close to a village with a bank, post office, general shop, bar , restaurant, castle with little museums and galleries and a bus stop. It is still classed as Lunigiana as apparently it used to be in Massa carrara province before being claimed by La Spezia.
It sounds lovely.

It sounds lovely. Good Luck. We found our property on the second link. It was advertised by an English lady on behalf of Italian friends. The links to the websites I posted are not very clear or obvious.
I hope you found them. You need to point the cursor at my words and then click. Strange layout.

I could only access your first link Casa, Viviun, but not the 2nd. What is the name of the site where you found your house? I forgot to mention that there is also a public swimming pool attached to a hotel in a village 15 mins away, higher up (where there is also a restaurant with a view to die for).

Thankyou for that Casa. Of course I'm very biased about the area, being totally in love with it. When we first found our little house there , over 6 years ago, we were the only English people in the area and everyone seemed to know about us and where we were staying. Now there is an English lady living quite near (although we haven't met her) and apparently House in The Sun have been filming in a village about 15 mins away. For walkers, the Alta via, which I think runs the whole length of liguria, ends a bit higher up the mountain,

Oh wow I remember watching ‘A place in the Sun’ but it was all about expats moving to Spain. We’re on the other side of Liguria, not as ‘posh’ but just as lovely I would love to see some pics of the house and area. We have friends who are looking but their preference is Tuscany…but you never know as this one is on the border….
