After the visit we made our choices and he set about negotiations on our behalf, coming out with two deals we were very happy with. Our visas were delayed so he made sure he went to the first house on the coast which was due to complete in our absence to make sure all was in order. He then organised all of the utilities and introduced us to other services we needed at the coast. He has continued to help us through the mysteries of the ways of a new country as the purchase of our main home completed and has certainly sought to make our move as easy as possible.
I have a distinct feeling we would have given up on the move to a new country at this late stage in our lives had we not met Antonio.
We thank him for helping us through all of the complexities associated with our decision, he is always courteous, friendly and importantly brings a distinct sense of purpose to resolve the many issues we face.

We met Antonio in Chianti in October 2021 when we were deciding whether to move to Italy to fulfil our retirement plans and escape the restrictions of Brexit. Our search had started in Umbria, moved through Val d’Orcia and to the Tuscan coast before deciding to look in Chianti.
Over the next six months we were in constant contact with Antonio from our UK home as we discussed several houses in Chianti which involved Antonio driving to various houses at sunset in December to show us the views over FaceTime.
By the turn of the year time we decided to make the move to Italy wholesale and redoubled our search for two houses, one by the coast and a search for a main home covering Chianti and Val d’Orcia.
Even though two of the areas where outside of Antonio’s ‘patch’ he helped us sieve through many properties and contacted the agents for us, seemingly knowing someone in every area we looked at!
He quickly picked up the criteria we were looking for and organised a full week of viewings for us across the wide search area.

Antonio knows the local Chianti area very well and helped us find & buy our dream home.
He communicated directly and open and explained everything in detail. He is very helpful, over and above what would be required of him.
His English is excellent, which was a great help for us.
He also introduced us to all important local services & tradesman, which made our start at the new property so much easier.
We thank him and would choose him again for our next purchase.

Over the years we have bought and sold seven houses. Our last house was in Chianti through Antonio.
Of all the real estate agents we have dealt with in the past, I have found Antonio to be the best at his profession.
Most impressive was his service after the sale.
It was his continued assistance in helping us navigate the many issues one had to deal with in a foreign country that gave us the confidence and peace of mind that we had made the right decision.
We are forever grateful.

Antonio is a serious and reliable professional.
He accompanied us in the purchase of our property in Tuscany, perfectly understanding our needs, demonstrating competence and experience.
Not having much experience in the area, I also appreciated the availability and honesty in providing advice and suggestions to better manage the purchase.
Absolutely recommended.

I had decided to sell my B&B in Chianti. It was beautiful, carefully restored and only with recycled materials. We had a very good clientele and were mentioned in all the tourist guides. Number 1 on TripAdvisor
Convinced of selling easily and as soon as possible, I entrusted myself to various real estate agencies in the area, unfortunately without success for 5 years.
A friend in Radda advised me to entrust myself to Antonio Lapucci of Immobiliare Chianti.
Antonio is different from real estate agents. He knows everyone in the area and has a special feeling with his clientele.
In 6 months he sold my property at best.
Thanks Antonio!

I am very happy to share my thoughts with potential clients.

My property was very difficult to sell because of so many problems.  But instead of focusing on the problems Antonio focused on solutions.  He overcame every obstacle and found the perfect buyer. 
I highly recommend him as a realtor for finding solutions and for being a very good listener.

Antonio Lapucci followed us with competence, professionalism and availability in the search for a Casale in Chianti, up to the purchase of the property which presented all the required requisites.

Antonio Lapucci is an excellent real estate agent, he is not only an excellent and attentive professional but also a person of trust and human warmth!
Perhaps this is the secret of his success.
Thanks for the excellent work done
(I sold 3 units thanks to his intervention)

We have already bought houses in various European countries. Nowhere did buying a house go as smoothly as in Italy.
Antonio’s competence and commitment played a major part in this. Throughout the buying process, we had the impression that Antonio listened to the needs of the buyer as well as the needs of the seller, making the process fair, fast and efficient.
After the successful purchase, Antonio’s commitment, unlike that of other agents, did not stop.
The after-sale-service was amazing. Antonio has an enormous local network and arranged all necessary contacts efficiently and was also personally involved in many small and large start-up tasks.
We cannot thank him enough for his dedication.
Also, he is just a nice guy and fun to work with. Not to forget that he speaks English very well, which is not always easy to be found.
Thoroughly recommended!

“Excellent Agent”, very helpful particularly as he speaks English and really takes time to understand specific customer requirements then find suitable properties to consider.  
He also has good connections with key builders, surveyors and Public notary – all with excellent reputations.

Antonio was a great help in finding me and my wife’s place in the Chianti area.
He was knowledgeable of both the area and understanding what we were looking for.
We had been looking for 3 years before meeting him.
Additionally, being Americans we needed extra assistance understanding the process from beginning to end and appreciated all of his help and would use him again without questions!

 

Thank you to Antonio for a very efficient and well organised transaction on the purchase of our apartment in Chianti.
As foreigners buying in Italy for the first time we were unfamiliar with the market and the bureaucracy, but we found Antonio very clear and methodical in helping us through every stage of the process, responding quickly and comprehensively to our questions.
As a result, we were able to complete the transaction within a few weeks. Importantly, he took the time to build trust and a relationship.
We are very happy with our new life in Chianti and would wholeheartedly recommend the services of Antonio.

Dear Antonio,
It is with the deepest gratitude we write this note. Over the last 30 years Elizabeth and I have bought and sold properties in 5 countries including Italy, but our recent experience selling our Palazzo in Belforte has been infinitely more pleasurable and rewarding than any previous transaction.
When we decided to sell our Palazzo, we had to choose from a good number of highly rated Estate Agents. We met with several and followed our instincts. Thank goodness. From our first meeting the attention to detail, understanding and energy was remarkable and unrelenting.
Please be in no doubt; in Tuscany we are truly blessed to have this group of estate agent professionals led by you.
I can and will recommend you and your team unreservedly to anyone with whom I have the opportunity to discuss house conveyancing.
Finally, please do not undermine the impact that your extraordinary outcomes have: this is much more than allowing people to move on, it is about presenting life changing and transformative opportunities.

 

We bought an apartment in Tuscany via Antonio Lappucci’s “Immobiliare Chianti” in Radda.
From the first meeting on, and until the purchase, heguided us in an optimal way. Still, it wasn’t easy: the sellers were in Asia, and we were in Belgium, all speaking different languages.
Antonio also had to do all the procedures during the Covid-19 period, meaning without practically any face-to-face contact. Yet, everything happened without any delay. Everything went very well, as Antonio promised: fair price, form of proxy issued in due time, everything settled is it had to be, etc.
Antonio did all that with an enormous patience to tackle the difficulties, while maintaining a constant communication with us.
We strongly recommend him to you.

Good morning Antonio,
We are now in Lugano, Switzerland.
Before we move on back to Germany we wanted to thank you for everything you have done to help us promote the sale and say that we are very happy that we met.
Luciano has a good taste in people and you are a fine example of that. We are strong believers of win-win deals and hope our joined success is good for you too.
We shall soon start to look for our new home in Israel and when we find you are more than welcome to visit us.
Again thank you and we meet again in July.

Dear Antonio,
thanks for your work, after long time we were trying to sell our home–farm, finally we succeeded, your contacts have enabled us to find the right buyer and also for your ability to mediate difficulties we closed the deal, this I’ll tell you apart from the nice personal relationship that has been created.
Thanks again and good luck

 

We looked around Tuscany for many years to buy a vacation home. Our dream has become a reality in 2011 when we were able to buy a property in the heart of Chianti.
As foreigners, it is extremely important to work with someone who knows the region and the local community very well and is someone you can trust 100% .
All this we found in Antonio. But it’s more than that – thanks to him we were able to find professionals for necessary renovations , connections with the bank, the notary, the local municipal authority and so on ….. his professionalism is more than giving great advice and help to close the real estate transaction.
His vision is not only to help in the transaction but to build a long-term professional relationship; this is what we really liked and why I highly recommend him to anyone who is interested to buy in Tuscany to get in touch with him. In addition, it has become a great friend ! 

We wanted to let you know how much we appreciated your help with so many things over the past few months.
You were always available to us and your advice was always helpful and courteous!
Thank you so much.

I’m glad to know that the calendar should be respected.
We left Gianluca to go on with the job with the hope that he would run, as promised, and as you see I often ask you to send me regular updates …..
Thank you for this response and all your support. Everything is proceeding as you said it would be … 

I suggest you to use Antonio’s services; he takes care of villas in a wide range of prices and locations ……. let Antonio an e-mail with a list of your needs, budget, dates, etc. and he will suggest the best solution

Jack and I have just returned to the life of Santa Rosa. Has not been easy and we miss the serenity, beauty and the very nice people of Radda. Life here is too busy and does not seem to be able to change the situation. We shared our adventures in Italy with all our friends; we also cooked dinner for them to show our pictures (we have more than 1000 ..).
Antonio, you have been an essential part of our trip that was one of the most beautiful parts of our lives and we thank you.
Lets say to all those who are interested to visit Tuscany to be sure to get in touch with you.
Goodbye and affection
