Giambrone Provides Guidelines for Property Inheritance in Italy

The team of expert and dedicated solicitors at Giambrone is specialised at handling issues resulting from purchasing or inheriting property in Italy. Our lawyers have extensive and in-depth knowledge of Italian laws and have the right expertise to help protect the interests of clients.

Should you have inherited property located in Italy, the following preliminary aspects have to be taken into account in order to choose the best line of action:

  • Understanding how to obtain grant of probate (an official document the executors may need to administer the estate. It is issued by a section of the court known as the probate registry) and how to have the property legally transferred to you by engaging legal assistance
  • Understanding whether you prefer to either sell, let or reside in the asset in Italy. Each option implies different legal procedures and requires different amounts time to be implemented. Selling is usually the best option when handling issues relating to property in Italy, as to avoid complication rising from letting and retaining property abroad
  • Understanding Italian inheritance tax and financial implication deriving from inheriting property in Italy

Whichever option should you decide to take, our bilingual Italian Probate Lawyers located in UK, Italy, Germany, Spain and Tunisia, in conjunction with our Italian real estate and cross border Tax Specialists will be able to offer the most appropriate, proficient and seamless service available.

Our team of experts at Giambrone has a long record of success in helping clients who have inherited property in Italy go through the required legal procedures.
