Depending on the property transaction it is often possible to arrange a mortgage amounting to 100% of the purchase price. However, generally a deposit of 15% of the purchase price is required. In all cases, you will also be liable for the solicitor's (Notaio’s) and the survey fees.

Repayment: These can be taken over a 5 - 25 year term

Interest Only: Some mortgage lenders will be happy to provide loans as interest only, though these are rare.

All mortgages should be fully repaid by the age of 70 and life cover is required. The mortgage is secured on the property in Italy.

Please Note: All mortgage lenders assess the eligibility for a mortgage on the applicant's ability to service the loan and not on the potential rental income from the property.
