After finding my dream home in Italy and putting down a deposit we were told we can't buy a house in Italy. In this video I share all the things that went wrong to try and prevent us from buying a house in Italy and what you can do to avoid these things happening to you.

Please note: this isn't usually what happens when buying a house in Italy as a foreigner, despite what you might hear, most Italian house purchases go through without a hitch and settle within 13 months.

Our situation was just a little different and I'm sharing it with you in the hope to prevent all the things that went wrong (yes there was more than one) from happening to you. The key, be prepared and know how it works and have a great property finder to manage the whole thing for you.

I recommend watching another video I created Do I need a property finder to buy a house in Italy. It will help you to decide if you need a property finder or not. Here's the link:    • Buying a house in Italy do I need a p...  

Also, here's the link to our property finder: Davide Mengoli from Salento with Love https://salentowithlove.com/

We were inspired to buy a house in Italy by watching Davide's YouTube channel here:    / @salentowithlove3314

Thanks so much for watching my channel and if you have any questions about the process of buying property in Italy as a foreigner (Australian, UK, American, or New Zealander) please ask in the comments below.

I'm happy to help anyone else who has a similar dream to own a house in Italy to make that dream a reality. Life's too short not to do what you truly want to do.

Thanks again and ciao for now.
