5 day isolation period by enquiries3

Hi guys, we bought a holiday home in Emilia–Romagna last August and have only managed to get there twice due to covid . Can anyone shed any light on the 5 day isolation, as we have flights from uk booked 23 rd August. If we go can we collect ...

If you are coming from the US with a short layover in London, as long as you don't leave the airport, you should not need to isolate for 5 days. This is a rule for UK citizens traveling to Italy Read More

Yes, that's still required for UK arrivals. The 5 day isolation is not required for U.S. folks entering Italy Read More

We are flying to Rome from the US, with a transfer in Paris. As far as I have researched, there is NO quarantine for us in Italy. We must fill out a passenger locator form that you can find on line or at the airport ticket counter prior to boarding. ... Read More

Buying land by boyekmaureen1

I’m looking to buy a piece of land next to our house in Abruzzo but what happens if there are other names or livello on the plot, does the owner need to remove them before the sale?

louloumura70

You will need a notary to assist you. They search out the owners and then you will need to get signatures from all of them. You could be lucky and discover there are only one or two names, or it could be a nightmare going back generations! The ... Read More

To Zig Zag Wanderer. Anyone can buy property in Italy. We are U.S. citizens and we have. Not sure why you would say that. Best not to give advice unless you know for sure. Read More

There are many U.S. citizens who own property in Italy. My husband and me for example. Anyone can buy property there. Not sure why you are assuming you can't. Best not to give advice if you haven't researched it. Read More

Property manager for apartment rental? by Sparepony

Does anyone have experience using a property manager to rent their home/apartment for part of the year? Would love to hear how it's gone, and especially if anyone has a recommendation for someone in the Ostuni area of Brindisi. Thank you!

louloumura70

Absolutely. We consider ourselves fortunate to have found Davide. He is an Italian who grew up in Salento where his parents and sister still live. He lived in London for 20+ years and was a successful international art dealer. He retired early at ... Read More

Well, just read one bad review, so can't rely on that. However, at contract signing, I plan on asking Davide to recommend a bank. He will be honest with us as he has tried hard to keep any fees from being much and we are super ... Read More

It would be necessary to have an account in an Italian bank I think if you holiday or live in Italy part time. We had to arrange automatic payments for bills since we are only there 6 months of the year. If anyone has any experience with using ... Read More

Check our Davide Mengoli of Salento With Love. His business is honest and very helpful. We worked with him as our agent to purchase a townhouse in Southern Italy. Depending on where you live, if he can't cover you, he likely will know someone ... Read More
