For some non-EU nationals a &#8220;condition of reciprocity&#8221; applies (Italy allows the purchase if that country would allow an Italian to buy there); most major countries, including the US and the UK, satisfy it. We confirm your position before you start.<\/div><\/div><!-- .lvca-panel --><div class=\"lvca-panel\" id=\"\"><div class=\"lvca-panel-title\">Do I need to be in Italy to complete the purchase?<\/div><div class=\"lvca-panel-content\"><strong>No.<\/strong> An Italian lawyer can represent you under a <strong>power of attorney<\/strong> and sign both the preliminary contract and the final notarial deed on your behalf. Many of our clients complete their purchase without travelling to Italy for the signing.<\/div><\/div><!-- .lvca-panel --><div class=\"lvca-panel\" id=\"\"><div class=\"lvca-panel-title\">Is the purchase proposal or preliminary contract binding?<\/div><div class=\"lvca-panel-content\"><strong>Yes &mdash; and this catches many buyers out.<\/strong> Once the seller accepts your written proposal, or once the preliminary contract (<em>compromesso<\/em>) is signed, you are legally committed and your deposit is at stake. Never sign either without a legal review first.<\/div><\/div><!-- .lvca-panel --><div class=\"lvca-panel\" id=\"\"><div class=\"lvca-panel-title\">What does the notary do &mdash; do I still need a lawyer?<\/div><div class=\"lvca-panel-content\">The Italian notary is a <strong>neutral public official<\/strong> who verifies documents, drafts the public deed and collects taxes. The notary does <strong>not<\/strong> negotiate for you or protect your side of the deal. An independent lawyer runs the due diligence, negotiates the contracts and represents your interests &mdash; which the notary cannot do.<\/div><\/div><!-- .lvca-panel --><\/div><!-- .lvca-accordion -->[\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_re_faq_c2{padding-right: 20px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;}&#8221;]<div class=\"lvca-accordion lvca-style1\" data-toggle=\"false\" data-expanded=\"false\"><div class=\"lvca-panel\" id=\"\"><div class=\"lvca-panel-title\">What taxes and costs should I budget beyond the price?<\/div><div class=\"lvca-panel-content\">On top of the price you should budget for <strong>registration tax or VAT, notary fees, and (where used) estate-agent commission<\/strong>, plus annual <strong>IMU<\/strong> property tax on second homes. The exact figures depend on whether you buy from a private seller or a developer and whether it is a first or second home. We give you a clear cost estimate at the outset.<\/div><\/div><!-- .lvca-panel --><div class=\"lvca-panel\" id=\"\"><div class=\"lvca-panel-title\">What should I check before buying an apartment in a condominium?<\/div><div class=\"lvca-panel-content\">Review the <strong>condominium regulations (regolamento)<\/strong>, the allocation of <strong>common expenses<\/strong>, any planned major works, and confirm the seller has <strong>no arrears<\/strong> &mdash; unpaid condominium fees can transfer with the property. We obtain and analyse these documents as part of due diligence.<\/div><\/div><!-- .lvca-panel --><div class=\"lvca-panel\" id=\"\"><div class=\"lvca-panel-title\">Can I buy Italian property at a judicial auction?<\/div><div class=\"lvca-panel-content\"><strong>Yes.<\/strong> Judicial auctions can offer prestigious properties well below market value, but they carry specific risks. We read the <strong>sale notice and the court appraisal<\/strong>, check for occupants, liens and building-code issues, and can bid or complete on your behalf.<\/div><\/div><!-- .lvca-panel --><div class=\"lvca-panel\" id=\"\"><div class=\"lvca-panel-title\">How does Italian inheritance law affect foreign owners?<\/div><div class=\"lvca-panel-content\">Italy applies <strong>forced-heirship<\/strong> rules that reserve part of an estate to close family. However, under the <strong>EU Succession Regulation<\/strong>, a foreign national can elect the law of their nationality to govern their succession. We help you plan ownership so your Italian property passes as you intend.<\/div><\/div><!-- .lvca-panel --><\/div><!-- .lvca-accordion -->[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][\/vc_section][vc_section css=&#8221;.vc_custom_re_cta{margin-top: 40px !important;padding-bottom: 40px !important;}&#8221;][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_re_cta_l{padding-right: 20px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;}&#8221;][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;<b>Planning to buy in Italy?
