Buying Property in Italy – What You Must Know In Italy, once you sign a preliminary contract (compromesso), you are legally bound to the purchase—no cooling-off period exists, and backing out can lead to financial penalties. Key Takeaways:✔ Property Surveys Are Not Standard: Unlike other countries, a geometra does not conduct structural surveys. They only check land registry compliance and building regulations. You must hire a structural surveyor to avoid costly surprises.✔ Legal Due Diligence Is Crucial: Verify property ownership, outstanding debts, and planning permissions before signing. Work with a real estate lawyer for legal security.✔ Common Buyer Mistakes: Skipping surveys, ignoring land registry issues, and underestimating renovation costs can lead to unexpected expenses.✔ Secure Your Investment: Always consult professionals before purchasing to ensure a smooth and risk-free property transaction. 📞 Book a free 30-minute consultation with Parrella and Sorantino today to navigate the Italian property market with confidence!
