If you have bought a house in Tuscany or are thinking of purchasing one, a native English speaking representative, familiar with the area and with numerous, local trustworthy Italian contacts, can prove very useful
Many of our clients are wary of leaving things in the hands of local agents often because of the cultural and language barriers or horror stories related by others
Did they really say that or did I interpret it incorrectly?
How does the system work? Where do I go to find that out?
I cannot believe I have arrived back to find the work has not been finished as promised
Is that Italian Estate Agent/Geometra reliable?
Where can we find maintenance people/gardeners/cleaners who will charge a reasonable price and not be unreliable?
