Purchase — We Execute and Sign on Mandate
When you decide to proceed, we lead the transaction to completion as your attorney‑in‑fact in Italy. We coordinate counterparties, control the legal and financial flow, and—where permitted—sign on mandate so you can close in person or remotely, with full bilingual support.

- Strategic leadership of negotiations with the seller, brokers and advisors.
- Drafting/review of all contracts and addenda, including the Preliminary Contract (Compromesso).
- Definition of scope of sale (land, buildings, outbuildings, appurtenances, inventory) and boundaries.
- Conditions precedent tied to due‑diligence outcomes, financing, permits and lien releases.
- Deposit design (e.g., caparra confirmatoria or penitenziale) aligned with your risk profile.
- Representations & warranties on title, regulatory compliance (urban planning/cadastre), occupancy/leases and taxes.

Notary Coordination & Power of Attorney
- Presentation of independent notaries (you select); fee transparency and scheduling.
- Preparation of Power of Attorney (bilingual), with notarisation/legalisation or apostille as applicable.

- Alignment of deed attachments (plans, compliance declarations, technical reports) to match the property’s actual state.
Funds Flow, Taxes & Escrow

- Notarial escrow for the purchase price where advisable (price released upon registrations/clearances).

Closing Day (Rogito) — Bilingual Execution

- Execution in person or by Power of Attorney; immediate confirmation of signatures and payments.
- Seller lien releases and mortgage payoffs coordinated with notary and banks.

Close‑Pack Delivery & Post‑Deed Filings

- Monitoring of registrations and cadastral updates by the notary; follow‑up on any administrative issues.
- Formal notifications to property managers/condominiums and authorities as needed.
- Clear post‑closing checklist for taxes, insurance and operational next steps.
Optional — Financing & Corporate Buyers
- Coordination of bank financing and, if applicable, the mortgage deed executed with/after the sale.
