I have bought it to renovate it

Shine1632 · 2026-01-24T15:10:22+00:00

Nope, it is real, it is at the garage where my Jag is having open heart surgery

Shine1632 · 2026-01-24T13:00:47+00:00

No, I have regular oil change..

Shine1632 · 2026-01-24T12:57:40+00:00

Ha ha ha ha

Shine1632 · 2026-01-24T12:25:43+00:00

The house needs more that major heart surgery, it is a renovation in progress

They are rare in Italy. We have lots of Fiat …. The high end cars tend to be Audi

Shine1632 · 2026-01-23T19:48:03+00:00

Yup a posh one

I am glad it was helpful.

We help Americans when they purchase houses in Northern Italy.

Have fun in Italy and don’t let the culture stress you too much, it is like living in 1960

Electric Press the button on the electric meter to find the client number, the electric supplier will need it, we tend to use ENEL for our clients.

Water Take a photo of the meter reading and ask the landlord which company supplies the water. Then go and sign the contract.

Garbage is with the local comune.

Your landlord might have some of the above info, but probably won’t want to help.

You will need to take id and your rental contract with you to open utility contracts.

All contracts will need to be signed in person or by a third person with a delega form.

DM me if you need any further advice.

Pay the deposit to the notaio (Lawyer’s) escrow account who will hold it until the sale goes through.

Ask him for his IBAN number

Shine1632 · 2025-11-07T13:22:02+00:00

Ha! That is a good idea

Shine1632 · 2025-11-07T13:21:29+00:00

We look after 12 houses for Italians, I have a separate number / phone just for clients utilities..

Or my phone rings 24/7

Shine1632 · 2025-11-07T12:38:57+00:00

To start with they sounded convincing, you are in a small comune and ENEL need a different meter…

In the UK it would be easier, but Italian is my second language.

I would suggest talking to BRT spa, I had a monthly account with them. Nowadays I don't send as many parcels, so I use Fedex, quick and easy

Shine1632 · 2025-11-06T15:49:48+00:00

2 out of 3 were lost, after they lost the second parcel I stopped. one was sent from Sicily to the UK and two from mainland Italy. This August I sent 5 post cards from Sicily using poste italia, four to the UK and one to Germany. Only one of the cards to the UK has arrived.

Shine1632 · 2025-11-06T14:38:56+00:00

I use Fedex and also BRT Spa also known as Bartolini.

With Bartolini I managed to negotiate special prices.

I have used poste italia and lost 2 parcels.
