Added to that is what seems like an intentional disconnect between the people and the company/companies they own. It's often, as you mention, "the Bocellis" rather than Vacanza, etc.

Yeah, I don't know either. The things that have me encouraged is that they appear to be a family business and state they hope to pass it to future generations. Also, just based on what I've read here, I would not be at all surprised if there was a ton on deferred maintenance on these places. That, plus the market price I assume they've paid, means prices are going to have to go up. But that's not greed, that's just our economic current reality--even nice guys would have to increase price here.
