The question I am asked most often by clients evaluating a purchase in Italy is not "where should I buy?" It is: "where do I begin?"
Not a presentation.
A private advisory session.
The Private Acquisition Strategy Session is an independent, formalised 60-minute consultation. It is not a commercial presentation of services, and it is not a discovery call.
It is an hour of qualified judgment applied to your specific situation: the territory that genuinely corresponds to your project, the market dynamics that will affect your negotiation, the risks that do not appear in any listing, and the questions you should be asking before beginning any search.
Most errors in Italian property acquisition are made in the preliminary phase, not during the negotiation itself. Decisions taken too early, with incomplete information, define the outcome before the search has properly begun.
For those at the beginning
of a serious process.
- Buyers evaluating a purchase in Italy with no clear starting point
- Clients who have conducted independent research and want qualified independent review before proceeding
- Those evaluating multiple territories and seeking an objective comparative assessment
- Buyers who have had frustrating experiences with Italian agents and want to understand how the market actually works
- Clients planning a relocation to Italy who need to understand the correct sequence of decisions
The session adapts
to your situation.
The structure follows your brief. In most sessions, we cover some combination of the following:
- Assessment of your brief and alignment between objectives, budget and territory
- Market dynamics analysis for the area or areas under consideration
- Identification of principal risks and the questions to ask before viewing any property
- Orientation on the Italian acquisition process: legal structure, realistic costs, timelines
- Independent review of properties already seen or under consideration
- Response to questions that have not yet found a qualified answer
By video call.
In your language.
The session takes place by private video call, in Italian, English or German.
Before the call, you will receive a brief preparation note with a few orienting questions, so that every minute of the session is spent on what matters to your situation rather than on establishing context.
At the end of the session, if it seems useful to both parties, we can discuss whether and how to proceed to a formal mandate. This is not expected or required.
The Private Acquisition Strategy Session is formalised and billed in advance.
This is a deliberate choice. An hour of qualified independent judgment has value. And the clients who are willing to invest in that judgment before proceeding are precisely the clients this practice is built to work with.
The session fee may be applied toward the advisory retainer of a subsequent mandate, if activated within ninety days.
