Hi all,
Does anyone know an agency based in Vasto called Better Property Italy. We are in the process of buying a house with this agency and hoped some of you could recommend them. Thank you in advance,
Hi Lisa,
It was a loooong drawn out process, but yes we are busy renovating the property now. I believe that patience is key when dealing with all property agents in Italy. But the agency were very lovely and friendly. I am happy to recommend them. Hope this helps.
Thanks Modicasa. Have been in touch with the agent and suggested the sepa transfer on the morning of the deed signing. I am hoping it is just a miscommunication. As Steve says it is a nerve wrecking time buying a house abroad but am glad to have this forum as a support.
Hi Suexpat. Getting a codice fiscale is a service that most, if not all, estate agents offer to foreign clients now. I'm guessing here but I would imagine that it is easier for them to do so if you are from an EU country.
Thanks Steve. The purchase price was in that region and that was why we were not concerned withvthe required deposit. You are so right about worrying not changing anything too. Hope they answer about the notary name tomorrow and I will post an update.
Thank you Steve. Yes we proceeded because the agency checked out as registered. Now I am feeling very foolish though and am sick with worry. I am awaiting a reply regarding the notary's name and details. Hope that this is not a scam.
Ugo the agency said that they would take care of the fiscal code. We transferred the deposit to their bank account. What do I do now? Am very frightened that I have been scammed.
Now I am very worried Ugo.
The house is in a village called Palata in Molise. We saw the house with an agency based in Vasto called Better Property Italy. The director of the agency is Antonio Cieri.
As I said we made an offer through the agent which was accepted. We signed the purchase agreement and paid the deposit. We requested the signing of the final deed for the 30th October as we can travel at that time.
The agent organised the notary. This morning I received an email looking for the balance outstanding to be paid so they could make the appointment for deed signing with the notary.
I posted here because I have concerns about this now. I think I need your help.

Yes Ugo. The agency took copies of our documents and we signed the form so that they could apply on our behalf for the codice fiscale.

Could you or anyone else recommend a notary to represent our interests ?
Thank you Ugo.
