Real Estate in
Italy | Buy, Sell & Invest
Your guide to buying, selling, and investing in Italy with trusted local experts.
Relocation & Investment Opportunities
Italy is a dream destination for many, offering a lifestyle centered around art, history, and 'la dolce vita.' From the rolling hills of Tuscany and the dramatic cliffs of the Amalfi Coast to the fashion capital of Milan and the historic heart of Rome, Italy's real estate market is as varied as its regional cuisines. For the international buyer, Italy offers the chance to own a piece of history in one of the world's most beautiful countries.
As part of the eXp Global network, I connect you directly with vetted, top-performing agents on the ground in Italy. Whether you're navigating local laws or looking for off-market gems, we ensure you have the best possible representation in your international real estate journey.

The Buying Journey
Buying Property in Italy
The international buying process can be complex, but we simplify it with a clear roadmap.
Obtain a Codice Fiscale (Tax Code)
Submit a written 'Proposta d'Acquisto' (Purchase Offer)
Sign the 'Preliminare di Vendita' (Preliminary Contract) and pay the caparra
Legal due diligence by a local Geometra or Lawyer
Final 'Rogito' (Deed of Sale) signed before a Notaio
Foreign Buyer Considerations
Italy allows foreigners to buy property based on the principle of reciprocity. Americans and most Europeans can buy freely. Tax incentives are available for those who move their primary residence to Italy.
Note: Legal and tax requirements change frequently. We connect you with local legal experts to ensure full compliance.
Valuation based on regional demand and property uniqueness
Marketing to a global audience of Italophiles and investors
Gestione delle relazioni tecniche e della conformità urbanistica
Negotiation and coordination of the final notary closing
Maximizing Value
Selling Property in Italy
Selling an international asset requires a different level of exposure. We leverage our global network to put your property in front of buyers from across the world, not just local ones.
Our local agents specialize in strategic pricing and high-impact marketing, ensuring your property stands out in the Italy market.
