Have you ever been to Italy and had your heart stolen? And have you ever wondered what it would be like to own your own property in Italy? A piece of paradise with your name on it?

Why? Fear.

Fear of the unknown, fear of the bureaucracy, fear of ending up like one of the many horror stories that you read on the internet, or the expat forums and the list goes on. Let me tell you, buying a property in Italy is nothing like what you see in the films. The Hollywood version of buying property in Italy is definitely a highlights reel!
