What Is the Aim of Property in Puglia and What We Do Differently?
Property in Puglia is an international real estate consultancy led by professional architects and building experts.
That might sound a little ambitious — forgive us — but in practice our approach is refreshingly personal. We work mainly with international clients who are looking to buy in Puglia, and we focus on quality over quantity. Our work is rooted in a deep knowledge of buildings, construction, renovation, and the real potential of a property — not just how good it looks in photos.
You won’t find endless property listings on our website. That’s intentional. Rather than acting as a generic property portal, we collaborate with a carefully selected network of small, family-run estate agencies across Puglia. These local agents know their territory intimately – the towns, the countryside, the sellers, and the hidden issues that don’t always appear in listings. We deliberately avoid large multinational agencies and anonymous platforms, because we believe buying property in Italy works best when it’s grounded in real local relationships.
We are fully licensed to operate as a real estate agency in Italy — a key distinction from many “property finder” websites offering superficially similar services. We completed the required training, passed the state exam, and are registered with the Italian Chamber of Commerce as realtors. This means we can legally and professionally represent your interests throughout the buying process.
What truly sets us apart is our technical expertise. As architects and building professionals, we look beyond surface charm. We help you understand what a property really involves: renovation costs, structural condition, planning permissions, feasibility of changes, energy performance, and long-term value. Whether you’re dreaming of restoring a trullo, transforming a masseria, or building something new, we guide you with clear, realistic advice.
We are not a faceless multinational advertising properties all over the world. Puglia is our base of operations, and we work here on real projects with real buildings, real craftsmen, and real public offices. From your first enquiry to the final signature on the deed — and beyond, if you decide to renovate — we support you through every step of the process, and connect you with our trusted local network of engineers, surveyors, lawyers, builders, and artisans.
Our international team combines local know-how with an international mindset. We work fluently in multiple languages, including English and Italian, and we understand the practical and cultural challenges of buying property abroad. That mix of technical competence and human support is what allows us to guide our clients with clarity, honesty, and confidence.
