Borgonova

Thousands of Italian homes are being sold for a euro. The hard part was never finding one. It was working out which town has a school, a doctor, a phone signal, builders who will turn up, and a genuine need for the person you are. Borgonova scores every one of Italy's 7,896 comuni on real ISTAT data, then goes deeper on the towns with live schemes. THREE NUMBERS, NEVER AVERAGED • Need — population decline, median age, empty stock and the skills the comune says it is short of. • Liveability — school, doctor, pharmacy, shop, broadband, and how far the station, hospital and airport are. • Capacity — the local builders, electricians, plumbers, roofers and geometri registered to work the town, and which essential trades are missing. THE TRUE COST, ON THE CARD Every listing shows what it costs to end up with a finished house: deposit, notary, survey, translation, registration and the building work. If a number would surprise you at the notary's desk, we put it on the card. REAL LISTINGS, REAL SOURCES Every property links to where it was read. Every incentive is checked against the issuing body, with the date we checked it. Closed schemes the press still reports as open are marked closed. THE TRADES REGISTER Free to search. Local businesses that will take on foreign buyers, labelled by what we have actually verified. No commission on building work, ever. FIND MY TOWN Ninety seconds, no account: budget, household, work, priorities. We rank the towns that fit and show every reason. TOWN ALERTS Tell us which town, and we email you when property appears there. Nothing else, and one click to unsubscribe. When you are ready to buy, our relocation concierge handles the codice fiscale, bank account, survey, notary and residency, in order, in Italian, with the cost of each step stated before you commit to it.
