💬 Common Questions From First-Time Buyers
🔸 Can foreigners buy property in Italy?
Yes. EU citizens can buy on the same terms as Italians, and so can citizens of most other countries, including the UK, the US, Canada and Australia, because Italy has reciprocity with them. Owning a home does not by itself give you the right to live in Italy.
🔸 Do I need a lawyer?
It’s recommended. You should seek your own legal and financial advice when purchasing property abroad.

🔸 Can I live in Italy full-time?
