What checks should I do before buying a property in Italy?

Before purchasing property in Italy, you should conduct a cadastral and land registry search to verify ownership and any liens, review the building’s compliance with planning permissions and structural regulations, and ensure the property has a valid APE energy certificate. At Trevi Elite we engage a qualified notaio and geometra early in the process helping international buyers identify issues with boundaries, unpaid condominium fees, or inheritance claims that could affect the transaction.
