Welcome to the forum and Southern Marche. Ditto Pam's comments re workmen etc. We are in the Ascoli Piceno region and having bought 2 houses, 1 of which was a complete rebuild have learnt an awful lot!!! Good luck and take your time.

Hi, thanks to all so far for welcome to the forum. Dont think we'll be rushing into a purchase. This is our fourth visit for house hunting in Italy over the last two years and our second in Le Marche. I think we have now decided that Le Marche is the place for us.
First question's to all who have had experiences buying their own property. I have seen several threads and have looked on various webistes related to Italian Residency, but cannot find the definitive answer. We understand that if you have Italian Residency you could save a fortune on purchase tax. At the moment we dont have the "Codice Fiscali" or "Italian Residency".
How easy are these to get?
When can we apply? (we still live in England and plan to do so for the next 2 years until the house is habitable)
Where do we apply?
From the sites that i have looked at, they suggest that we are required to give an address in Italy, but obviously as we havent found an house yet, we dont have one.
Many Thanks
Nigel & Amanda
