San Marco Italian Properties offers a comprehensive real estate legal assistance service, essential to ensure a secure and compliant purchase under Italian law—especially for international clients.

We carefully verify property ownership, check for mortgages or legal encumbrances, and confirm full cadastral and urban planning compliance. We handle the drafting of the purchase offer and the preliminary agreement (compromesso), providing bilingual documentation and including suspensive clauses specifically designed to protect the buyer at every stage.

We coordinate all activities with trusted notaries, including English-speaking professionals, and provide full support for signing via power of attorney when the client is unable to be present in Italy. We also offer language assistance during the final deed (rogito) and manage the certified translation of all notarial documents.

We take care of all mandatory legal requirements under Italian law, such as the declaration of funds origin, and handle the registration of contracts with the Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) and the Land Registry (Catasto). In cases involving complex property situations—such as inheritance, succession, or legal disputes—we provide dedicated support until full resolution.

Our goal is to guarantee maximum transparency, legal protection, and peace of mind throughout the entire purchase process.
