Why use a Property Search Agency?
Buying a property in Italy is interestingly different from buying at home or in some other European countries. Very few properties display 'for sale' signs so it is not possible to drive around an area looking for contacts. Estate Agents closely guard their register of properties and will usually only work on an accompanied basis - this can be very time consuming and unproductive as you may be shown properties in which you have no interest.
So the Italian buying process can lead to frustration. We believe that the finding experience should be an enjoyable one. By giving us the leg work to do we will help to make finding your dream home in Tuscany hassle free!
How much does this Cost?
In Italy Estate Agents will charge a buyer anything from 3-5%, or more + IVA (VAT), of the purchase price. Our fee of 3-3.5% + VAT replaces this charge and gives you access to the services we are outlining to you.
