Property Purchase Guide
The key people in the process are:
The Notary: A notary, the number of whom in a town is limited by the population, the Notary will oversee
and witness the sale in order to make it official by registering it with the
correct authorities.
Once you have found your ideal house and agreed the price there are three main stages, which must
be completed before the sale is completed.
1. Once the price is agreed you will make a proposta d’acquisto , a formal offer, and this is when you
sign the official document where you will attach a 10% deposit as a
guarantee, there will also be the date by which you agree to conclude the purchase of the property;
this is normally about month after it has been signed.
If you pull out after this point you will lose your deposit, and the same if the seller pulls out they must
pay you twice your deposit.
2. Compromesso a preliminary sales agreement which is prepared by the Notary or by the estate agent.
At this time you must pay a 20% deposit on the agreed price of the house.
3. Rogito: The final sale which is prepared by the Notary and must be signed by both parties in person.
At this point the property is handed over to you and you pay the final amount, the deeds will then be
registered by the notary and will be available for you approx one month after
the sale.
Fees:
It is important to allow for the various fees involved in buying the house in your budget. The main fees
are listed below:
