STEP 1

Buyer fill out the property request form, the more information will give the more accurate research will be.

STEP 2

The buyer provides contact details to avoid overlapping with other property research he might have with other real estate agencies. Special Homes doesn’t request an exclusive mandate, but we strongly recommend it in the interest of the buyer. If no exclusivity is given to Special Homes, we do recommend providing us with the list of the real estate agents that are working with the buyer.

STEP 3

Special Homes will perform research in its exclusive properties databases, taking into consideration all the buyer’s requests. This could take a few days since Special Homes treat only properties that are not listed on web portals and will double-check each property with the owners before
proposing anything to the buyer.

                            Only if Special Homes finds some properties that could match the buyer’s requirements:

STEP 4

Special Homes, at its costs, will set up a conference call or an in-person visit at the buyer’s location. The objective is to reconfirm the needs, and have an open discussion about lifestyle and other specific requests, a list of selected properties will be presented.

STEP 5

Only if the buyer decides to proceed in viewing/visiting the selected properties a contract between Special Homes and the buyer will be signed and the visits arranged, the costs for the buyer will be a fixed fee to visit up to 5 properties, all the incurred travel costs sustained by the agent to accompany the buyer on his visits. 

A fee of 6% on the purchase value of the property is to be paid on the day of the purchase act with the notary and the deed signed.

WARRANTIES AND SERVICES

It will be the responsibility of Special Homes to verify all the legal compliances of the property, including maps, certifications, and bureaucracy requirements giving evidence to the buyer before the visit and in any case before any commitment to purchase by the buyer.

Special Homes will assist the buyer also in a post-sales bureaucracy such as electricity contracts,
heating, gas, and mandatory declaration.
