FAQ's

Can you help with obtaining a Tax Code (Codice Fiscale) and Italian Bank Account?

Yes, when you have found your new home, our colleagues in Abruzzo and Molise can certainly help you to obtain a Codice Fiscale and open a bank account.


I have bought a property that needs restoration, can you help me?

Absolutely. Whether you have a new build or restoration project, we have a network of local professionals, who we can suggest to help you. These range from architects/geometras for design and planning approval, through to specialist trades people for construction and internal finishing.


My new property is a holiday home, is it possible for somebody to pay my bills and look after my house?

Yes, we can organise this for you. We offer a range of services, please view the page 'Property Management' under Specialist Services.


How do I go about viewing properties?

When you make your travel arrangements, it is best to let us know as soon as possible, as our associates are normally busy a few weeks in advance and we would hate for you to be disappointed.

You can either choose properties that you wish to view from our website, or, just provide us with your property specification and we can show you suitable houses and apartments.

It is important to understand the distances between towns, as it often looks close on a map but in reality it can take much longer to travel between places than it first appears.


What language will my viewing be conducted in?

All our colleagues speak fluent English, so you should be able to understand all important details about your property viewing.


Do I need a working mobile phone in Italy?

Definitely. You will always need to be contactable during your trip. It is important that you are able to phone or WhatsApp us, if there is a problem, or should our colleagues wish to contact you before your viewing to make sure that all is OK.


What if I get lost or am late?

If you are looking at properties in the countryside, we would always advise that you don't rely on Satellite Navigation in Abruzzo or Molise. Many of our clients are guided along muddy farm tracks or unmade roads. Please take a map as additional insurance should you lose your way.

If you are running late, please just give our colleague, who you are meeting a call. We will provide you with all relevant phone numbers. You can always call us, of course.


Are there times to avoid viewing?

Yes. Do not expect to view on a Sunday, as our colleagues work six days a week and this is the only day they can spend time with their families.

It is also best to avoid the two weeks around Ferragosto - 15 August. This is summer vacation time for Italians which can either be a long weekend or most of August!


Do I need a car when I visit

It is best to have a car, when viewing, as you may need to meet more than one of our colleagues in different towns and distances can be great. We would always advise that you take a map as additional insurance to satellite navigation.

Should you need a hotel pick up there may be a charge for expenses.


Are advertised property prices negotiable?

Some prices are certainly negotiable. It depends on how quickly the owners would like to sell, how long the property has been on the market and how popular the location is. It should be noted, however, that the lower the price the less negotiable it is.


If I am not fluent in Italian, I notice that property purchase documents have to be translated into my language. Can you help?

Yes, we have translators who can do this on your behalf.
