If you need to arrange an Italian mortgage to buy a property in Italy, then all you need to do is fill in the Italian Mortgage enquiry form, and it will go to International Private Finance (IPF) where the multilingual British brokers  will start the search for the most appropriate Italian mortgage for your circumstances.

It is advisable to arrange a mortgage in principle before committing to a purchase. This will enable you to find out how much you can borrow, so you don’t waste time looking at properties beyond your budget.

Even if you haven’t found a property that you wish to buy, IPF can establish your affordability and agree an approval in principle based on your current financial situation.
If you have already found a property to purchase, they will send you a full application pack via email or in the post. If the property is still under construction, they can keep your file open until you tell them it is ready.
