Property purchase in Rome

“There isn’t enough good things I can say about Desiree and her team. I came to Italy as a foreigner with zero knowledge of how to navigate the real estate market and Desiree walked me through every step of the way.

Thanks to her and her team I own my beautiful forever home here in Rome.”

Relocation from USA to Naples

"Désirée and her team were essential in making my move to Napoli happen. They were thorough in guiding me through a complicated process and super friendly to deal with. Since Désirée has lived overseas for much of her life, she fully understands expat needs and challenges.

Désirée guided me through the Elective Residency Process, helping me secure the required health insurance and to rent an apartment in Naples remotely. They ensured I met each of the requirements of the consulate in the U.S. and when needed, they connected me to highly qualified accounting and legal experts. They helped me connect and set up billing for all the utilities.

In fact, to this day, Désirée and team help me manage my Neapolitan home, continuing contact with the landlord and guaranteeing the apartment is always well maintained."

Property purchase in Lecce

"We are incredibly pleased with the service we received from Desiree and Federica for our Lecce home purchase. The home buying process can be daunting, especially in another country but they were fantastic.

From finding potential properties to helping us negotiate an ideal contract, they were always available and communicated how each part of the whole process would move forward. They also profoundly understood the housing market in the area, which allowed us to get an incredible deal that exceeded our expectations.

Beyond their expertise and professionalism, the team was amicable and kind throughout my home buying process. They answered all our questions with in-depth explanations, ensuring we fully understood what we were doing and why it was necessary.

Their knowledge and experience, combined with their patient approach, made this otherwise stressful event a smooth and successful process. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch real estate services! They truly went above and beyond and we are forever grateful."

Julian & R.

Property purchase in Umbria

"I had been house hunting in Italy for over a year with no success. I found that dealing with Italian real estate agents was almost impossible. Being introduced to Desiree and Federica was a game changer, I gave them my list of "must haves" and "would be nice to have" and my availability to go to Italy and within a short period of time they had arranged appointments to visit twenty or so houses which appeared to meet my specification. They drove me to all of the viewings and translated all documents into English. After I had found the house of my dreams they helped me through the complete purchase journey. If it wasn't for Desiree and Federica I would have given up."

Property purchase in Lecce

“Désirée was nothing short of amazing! She went above and beyond to not only find us our dream home in Lecce, but also to make our entire relocation process stress-free. She was always there to answer our endless questions, and truly understood our needs when it came to finding a home. She kept us informed every step of the way and made sure we felt supported as we navigated life in a new country. Thanks to her care, expertise, and dedication, we felt at home from day one. We can’t recommend her enough!”

“Key to Italy helped me with securing a rental contract when I moved to Italy. They were very helpful and always followed up in a timely manner. A true partner. Would recommend them.”

Anne & Larry

Property purchase in Lecce

“Our family purchased a home and relocated to southern Italy in 2023. Our move and the purchase of our beautiful home in Italy went so smoothly which was due entirely to Desiree. She is amazing in every way.

Buying property in Italy is a unique experience and challenging to navigate unless you understand the market, culture, inspection and documentation rules, and have good relationships with real estate agents, inspectors, attorneys, contractors, and notaries. Desiree offers all of those things plus dedication, professionalism, communication skills, and hard work.

Desiree guided us through the purchasing maze, connected us with experts, as needed, and was with us the day we received the keys to our new home.

We cannot say enough about how she made this purchase and life transition such a joy! And, I’m certain we will be friends forever."
