Can anyone help please? I purchased a small apartment in Umbria in October 2018. In 2019 I engaged the services of a local tradesman to clearout my basement which was kneedeep in rubble from the previous owner.

Does anyone have any suggestions about how I could have a piece of furniture (specifically a large wall-mounted plate rack) delivered from Devizes UK to my place in Umbria? Thanks

What is wrong with this community forum? It used to be so good, now it is difficult to navigate, posts from as far back as 2009 head the top of the page and there are a heap of spam-like posts that are just downright annoying! Can we go back to

Wonderful Ugo thank you very much. Will look that up.
Thank you so much! This is very useful. The people of the little town where I have bought seem very friendly and helpful so hoping this extends to getting my rubbish removed! Thanks again
Yes I gathered I would probably have to pay for it but I just don't know who to ask or who would do it. Here there are companies and/or people you can contact to do this sort of thing but not really sure where to start looking. Thanks for the reply
Hi Chris, any chance you might be able to contact me at email address I provided?
Hi Chris please get in touch with me re small job that needs doing lilylunavintage@yahoo.com
Hi Chris can you provide me with a contact email so we can discuss my flat and possible requirements. Thanks
Hi Chris whereabouts in Umbria are you locating to? We are in the process of buying a tiny unrenovated flat in the historical centre of Gualdo Tadino. Are you anywhere near there?
Thanks Modicasa. Yes it was the notaio who suggested the perizia giurata and I have just been informed of the costs of the geometra which are quite expensive but will, in the end, save me over €1000, so its a wierd concept having to spend money to save money. Also this should cover me for any nasty surprises I might have received from the tax dept further down the line
Grazie Ugo
The real sale price is Euro 9.500 not Euro 95.000 - possibly a typographical error? I am now confused as to whether I should get the perizia giurata. I don't think the apartment is worth Euro 33.000 (cadastral value) but I accepted that because I am paying such a low price. I have heard about this problem with the tax office, years later receiving a large bill because of the difference in cadastral value and actual price paid, but I brought this up with the agent and he said that it did not apply to my purchase? He gave me an explanation but can't quite remember his reasoning. I just want to buy my place and gradually do it up over a couple of years. We could do most of the renovations ourselves and I am worried that getting a perizia giurata will turn my place from abitabile to non abitabile which I definitely do not want, but then I also do not want to receive a large tax bill in a few years. The seller is a young person (I gleaned that from the contracts) and the real estate agent said that he wanted originally to move in to it and started some renovation works, and then he got work away from the area and so he changed his mind and decided to sell.
