Buying Process
 
The buying process in Italy is secure and straightforward and it could not be easier. The system and process is practically the same as for Spain, except we advise allowing 12% - 15% of the purchase price for closing costs. The payment structure is:
 
Reservation 3,000€
50% deposit in around 4-6 weeks
Final 50% is due on completion (less the 3,000€)
VAT/Equivalent tax currently 10% is payable on completion
Allow another 2% - 5% for other closing costs such as Notary and Solicitor
Euro mortgages are available on these properties; interest rate 3.5% – 3.8%
All the planning consents, deeds and other legal aspects of the properties we sell are thoroughly checked by our legal department for your security and protection and all properties are guaranteed freehold and with debt-free deeds.
 
Furthermore for your financial security, your deposit is held in a UK based solicitors' client account and is 100% secure via a bank guarantee.
 
An experienced solicitor specialising in Italian law is available to oversee the process on your behalf or you can select your own if you prefer.
