Many thanks for all your replies, we have been in contact with the Notaio and we will pay with a bankers draft, he will provide us with translation.  Our Italian is ok but not good enough hopefully this time next year it will have improved.  We have also heard from Barclays Italia branch in Florence so we have an appointment with them when we come over to complete the final deed of sale so, next on to the wills..!!  Alba.

  Many thanks, it is as we thought, we had an italian lawyer do all the work for us up to this point and with the help of this forum thought we could deal with the Notaio but even though we email him in Italian he replies in English (his english being a bit like the policemans french in Hello Hello) and it is really difficult to understand what he mean. Thanks again Alba.
