How is payment handled?

Payments in Italy are handled through secure and fully traceable methods, ensuring maximum transparency for all parties involved.

Typically, payments are made in stages:

• An initial deposit when submitting the offer
• A second payment at the preliminary agreement (compromesso)
• The final balance at the notary during the deed (rogito)

All transactions are carried out via bank transfers or certified checks, in compliance with Italian regulations. The notary also oversees the final payment, ensuring that funds are correctly transferred at the moment ownership is officially passed to the buyer.

For international clients, we often use the price deposit service (deposito prezzo) through the notary’s dedicated account. This adds an extra layer of security, as the funds are held by the notary and released to the seller only after all legal conditions are properly met.
