Italy
Property for sale in Italy divides between move-in homes and restoration projects, and the asking price rarely shows which is which. Prices run from around €20,000 (£17,000) to over €2m, with 504 homes under €100,000.
Tuscany and the northern lakes sit at the top, while Umbria, Abruzzo, Apulia and Sicily return far more house for the money. Use the filters to narrow by region, price and property type.

Italy offers the widest gap between entry and prime of any market we cover. Prices run from around €20,000 for a village house needing work to over €2m for a Tuscan estate, with 1,693 homes inside a €300,000 budget. Tuscany, Umbria and the northern lakes carry the recognisable names and the prices to match, while Abruzzo, Apulia, Sicily and Sardinia return considerably more space for the same money. Restoration is the norm rather than the exception, and the cost of the work is rarely reflected in the asking price.

Can foreigners buy property in Italy?
Yes—foreigners can buy property in Italy, including non-residents. In many cases the process is straightforward, but some non-EU buyers may need to meet Italy’s reciprocity principle (your notary/lawyer can confirm based on nationality).
The purchase is completed before an Italian notary (notaio), who verifies the legal title and registers the deed. Buying property does not automatically give you residency, so plan visas/residency separately if you want to stay long-term.
What is the property buying process in Italy?
A typical Italy purchase follows:
(1) offer accepted,
(2) due diligence (title, mortgages/charges, planning and cadastral conformity),
(3) preliminary contract (compromesso) with deposit (caparra),
(4) mortgage/finance (if needed) and final checks,
(5) completion at the notary signing the deed (rogito) and transferring funds,
(6) notary registers ownership with the land registry and updates cadastral records.
In Italy, verifying urban planning + cadastral conformity (often with a geometra) is a major risk-reducer, especially for older homes.
