Virtual property management in Italy

Charming farmhouses in the open countryside, fascinating city center apartments, historical buildings in lovely surroundings…easy to rent and/or turn into thriving businesses! There’s no doubt about it, on top of their innate allure Italian real estate assets offer an unrivalled fringe benefit: they’re suitable (actually perfect) to produce income while you’re away. 

So, you’ve recently fallen for that heavenly farmhouse in the Chianti hills, but can’t relocate right now? You’re well aware that keeping it vacant will cost you a lot, in terms of taxes and maintenance costs, would like to make a profit out of it but can’t figure out how, from overseas? Count on us! 

Renting your newly purchased property out, and making up for your investment through rental fees proportionate to its actual value, is by far the wisest thing you can do. Ideally, one would want to get prospective tenants able to pay what was agreed, dependable people who do not cause damage to the home and pay on time, regularly. But sourcing, and managing, tenants is not a hobby. It’s a real job, and a potentially challenging one at that. One needs to have the time, and the energy to handle it. A foreign owner resident abroad with a full time job may easily end up overwhelmed by the responsibilities involved. He/she is bound to start thinking “wouldn’t it be ever so nice to have someone do this for me, act on my behalf, deal with the pestering and difficulties and taking it all off my back!”.
