Discover Your Ideal Italian Property in Lazio, Tuscany & Umbria

Hi, I'm Bert.

My love affair with Italy began in the 1990s, culminating in my move in 2017. Settling in the heart of Lazio, I was drawn by its authentic Italian lifestyle, stunning landscapes, unspoiled beaches on the nearby Tyrrhenian coastline, and an all-important convenient access to Rome’s international airport.

I’ve immersed myself in the unspoiled magic and beauty of Italy, and now, I’m dedicated to helping others discover their own slice of “La Dolce Vita”.

From Our Clients' Hearts To You.

I live in Rome where I have a high stress position with an international company. Always on a plane traveling back and forth from South America and within the EU, I began to dream of a weekend escape, but it had to be less than an hour and a half from Rome.

Fortunately I met Bert, who understood immediately the importance of my criteria. The very first property he showed me, which was FSBO and one I never would have found, was a recently renovated pied-à-terre in a beautiful Centro Storico by Lago di Bolsena. It could not be in a more beautiful atmosphere for me to unwind and enjoy this beautiful area of Italy.

We used Bert to help us find our dream home in Umbria. He found us three houses to look at which were great houses. The third one he found for us matched all of our criteria.

We wanted a detached villa with mature gardens and privacy. The house is a restored and restructured railway house. We bought the house on June 23.

Bert has a great eye and we are extremely happy with the service he provided. I would strongly recommend him to find your dream home in Italy. If you lay out your requirements, he listens carefully and tries to find the perfect place for you.

Thank you again, Bert, for finding us our perfect Italian Paradiso!

I discovered Bert through his Facebook posts on Italian living. Being an American interested in investing in an Italian property, I valued the insight of someone who had already navigated that path.

Bert graciously offered his assistance, providing me with a selection of properties to consider and even visiting them to share videos and pictures, accompanied by his personal advice.

His expertise was invaluable, and I look forward to maintaining our connection as I progress further on this journey.

Bert has been great to work with. He introduced me to a couple of properties and sent videos and pictures to tell the story. His experience in Italy is very helpful and can shed light on the different areas.

I’m continuing my search for the perfect Italian property this summer and look forward to his assistance.
