Umbria Italy Real Estate Property
Most people dream and fantasize about living in the hills of Italy and very few do it. Read the story to learn from the experience of an individual who bought a derelict villa seventeen years ago and renovated it to rent it out.
Now she fills four beautifully renovated buildings with regular guests and runs a property restoration consultancy. This was not easy and it was a long hard process that she did it all alone. Now live your dream by following the five tips:
- Learn the language – by immersion course or free lessons from the local commune
- Do drainage and seismic checks to reduce your risk of discovering unseen potential problems later
- Negotiate the Geometra fees upfront. Geometra is a mix of an architect and a surveyor
- Budget 25 per cent for contingency expenses on top of restoration costs
- Investigate green energy alternatives as utility costs are very high
