Bisaccia, located in the south of the Campania region two hours from Naples, is struggling to revive their local community.
The quiet town has suffered from a number of earthquakes, according to CNN Travel, cited as a reason for the population decline in recent years.
Many of the buildings are now run down, with broken windows and plant-life growing throughout.
However, the region has put 90 buildings on the market.
It is hoped that they will be renovated into communal living areas to encourage groups of people to live in the area.

The offer expects the buyer to commit to renovate their purchase, although there is no time frame or minimum spend expected.
Deputy mayor Francesco Tartaglia hopes it will make families and friends to move together instead of single buyers.
She told CNN: “We welcome families, groups of friends, relatives, people who know each other or investors to join forces.
“We encourage them to buy more than just one house to actually have an impact and breathe new life.”
She added that the local authorities own the buildings, not former residents, meaning the transactions will be easy.

In recent months, many Italian villages and communes have resorted to selling cheap homes to encourage tourists to move to the area.
Mussomeli in southern Sicily was offering homes for just 85p, as long as the buyer renovates the house within a year, while the town of Sambuca was offering them for the same price as long as you spend £13,000 doing it up.
Bivona in Sicily asked buyers to pay just a £2,100 bond to get the 85p house.
Some parts of Italy were giving away places for free, with castles, monasteries and towers available as long as they were turned into commercial properties such as restaurants or hotels.
Cammarata in Sicily was offering free houses with amazing views on the condition you have a £4,300 deposit.
An Italian village was offering to pay new locals £1,700 with just £40-a-month rent to move there.
