Frequently asked questions

The most common questions

How do I sign the quote?

You receive a link: you open the quote, read it and sign it online by entering a confirmation code sent to your email. It is an electronic signature valid under the European eIDAS regulation. Once signed, you can download a copy.

How and when do I pay?

With an advance when you confirm the assignment, equal to half of the amount, and the balance when the documents are delivered, by bank transfer. For project management and works supervision the fee depends on the cost of the works: the advance is half of the estimated fee and is set at the design stage; at the end of the works the fee is recalculated on the actual cost and the difference is invoiced. Bank details and payment reference are in the quote.

Do prices include VAT?

Service amounts are stated net of VAT (IVA), which the quote adds to the total. Stamp duties are already included. Any costs paid on your behalf, such as fees or penalties in retrospective filings (sanatorie), are listed separately.

Who carries out the site visit?

A qualified technician, who contacts you directly to agree on day and time.

I do not know whether my property is in order: where do I start?

With the Site visit + Records access: we obtain the property's documents from the Comune, compare them with the actual state and tell you whether everything is in order or whether filings are needed, and of what type. It is the recommended first step before selling or buying.

What is the difference between the Site visit and the Relazione di conformità?

The Site visit + Records access is a first check: it tells you whether the property is in order or whether filings are needed. The Relazione di conformità is the written technical document that checks the match between the actual state, the cadastral floor plan and the building permits: it is the check that comes before a sale and that banks require for a mortgage.

When do I need the APE?

The Attestato di Prestazione Energetica (Energy Performance Certificate) is mandatory to sell or rent a property and must be attached to the deed.

What is records access (accesso agli atti) and when do I need it?

It is the request to the Comune for the property's documents: the building permit, the filed floor plan, the historical file. You need it when you do not have these documents and must find out what was authorised, almost always before a retrospective filing (sanatoria) or a compliance check.

CILA, SCIA or Permesso di costruire: which one do I need?

It depends on the works. For internal works that do not touch the structure a CILA is normally enough; for external works or works on structural parts you need a SCIA; to increase volume or floor area, or to build from scratch, you need a Permesso di costruire (building permit). The technician confirms the correct filing after seeing the property.

Some works were done without permits: can this be fixed?

Often yes, with a retrospective filing (sanatoria): CILA tardiva, SCIA in sanatoria or Permesso di costruire in sanatoria, depending on the works. Whether and how to regularise is assessed by the technician case by case. Any penalties are paid by the owner and are listed separately in the quote.

Is furniture included in Interior design?

No. The project goes from the first consultation to the final check, with moodboard, renderings, help with orders and supervision of deliveries. The cost of the furniture and its assembly are not included: suppliers provide and quote them separately.

How long does it take to get a quote?

We send you a quote within 48 hours of your request, or the questions we need answered to prepare it. Once you accept the quote and pay the advance, the technician contacts you within 72 hours.

What does the cost depend on?

On the size of the property, the documents already available, the complexity of the case and the distance. This is why we do not publish prices: the quote comes on request, within 48 hours.

Which areas do you cover?

All of Italy. Site visits, checks and filings are carried out by qualified external technicians, geometri (licensed surveyors) and architects, in the area of the property.

I am a real estate agency: can I send you requests for my clients?

Yes. Fill in the form choosing "Real estate agency" as your profile and give the town of the property and the service, or write to project@valenteit.com.
