since they are selling multimillion dollar property, you'd hope they would have the money to hire a proper web designer...

I think it's cute they have a mortgage calculator on the page.... oh it's nice to know it's gonna cost me $200,000 per month for the next 25 years.... lock in to those low interest rates!!!

I like the fact that most of them aren't in US dollars....The US dollar's crappy conversion rate alone will kill you...

Just fix it up with a drawbridge, a moat, a dungeon, and a prison tower and when it comes time to sell it will practically pay for itself fivefold!

That one in italy will need hundreds of thousands in restoration money.

If I was loaded I'd love to live in a castle with really good security. Imagine how safe you'd feel :) Plus you're impervious to natural disasters, for the most part.

LOL that one in arkansas is a f**king disgrace.

The one in Ireland might be an interesting investment for the adventurous developer. It has approval for an 18 hole golf course and luxury housing.

Are they wired with the latest in technology? You know, cable, a/c, etc? Do they come furnished? !!!!

Ugh, I would never buy another castle. The last one I had burned down, fell over, then sank into the swamp.
