New citizens for Nardò, town in Puglia

Buying a time-share flat in Gallipoli

Time-share: “Condominium” is a very common way to buy/sell holiday homes and means a free-hold property which is owned by different householders, at different times of the year.

In this case the apartment, completely furnished, will be owned by you 10 months per annum from September to June. July and August are owned by others. Moreover annual taxes and expenses are divided among all the householders of the apartment.
For instance a free-hold flat, such as this would normally cost about € 120.000. But for 10 months it will cost € 25.000, considering that the most important holiday months in Italy are July and August and the value in those months is higher. After buying it you can resell it, if you wish, or rent it out personally or through our agency.

One of our clients says:
“This has been a deeply reassuring and happy experience. The flat exceeded my expectations and I have the confidence that the agency take care of all local formalities and expenses in a wholly transparent way; so that there are no unpleasant surprises”. Marie-France Riboulet , (Bristol-UK)

Buying properties in Puglia: Golden Rule

If you are looking for a property investment in Italy and/or in Puglia, new upcoming area of the South, the "heel" of Italy, please deal with licensed estate agents only. The role of Italian real estate agents is quite different from that British one.
In the UK everybody can set up an estate agency without any qualification or experience. Viceversa in Italy they must be professionally qualified, hold a licence to practise and have indemnity insurance. The agents operating without license are illegals.
On internet there are many unlicensed mediators, dealing with foreign buyers, selling properties and renting holiday home. Do not trust them! They promise lots of useful services but the real extra service they provide is to charge a commission up to 100% more than a licensed Italian agent, or, raise the market price of the property. Moreover if you take their advice you will not be covered by the legislation and the code of ethics which the legal agents must adhere to. If you are dealing with an agent ask for their registration roll number to the chamber of commerce and which professional association they are registered to. Remember buying property in Italy, legally, is safe as buying property in the UK, all you need is just to know the differences and follow the rules!

Self-catering accommodation - clients feedback

Hi Sonia
Just a quick line to say thanks to you and Antonio, we had a super holiday. The apartment was great and lived up to expectations. Tell Antonio we have viewed his promotional DVD and will invite our friends and family to view it.
I am sure that there is a real opportunity to exploit the area around Santa Maria al Bagno (Nardò, Lecce, Puglia) to the British holiday market. The weather at the end of October is as good if not better than mid summer in England, the sea is still warm and the tempo of life chilled? Just what so many of us Brits are looking for!
Can't wait to return, I may be in touch for the same apartment in June.
Thanks again!
