Some decisions change everything. Choosing to buy a home in Puglia is one of them, and we know it deserves more than a transaction. It deserves people you can trust.
Born in the heart of the Valle d’Itria, for over 20 years we have been helping buyers from across Europe, the UK and the United States find their place here: a trullo in the countryside, a masseria with olive trees, a whitewashed home in Locorotondo or a terrace above the Adriatic in Polignano a Mare.

"Buying a home abroad takes courage. My job is to make sure that courage is rewarded with the right property, the right process, and someone alongside you at every step. I have been doing this for over 20 years, and I still find it meaningful every time."

Stories from people who made the move
Woc Nikka
As we are in love with Puglia for more then 15 years and we are promoting Puglia wines in Prague we purchased two beautiful properties via Trulli e Dimore Immobilare. services around purchase are fast and impeccable but the biggest plus of it that they follow our reconstruction process, building permits and also potential rent out for future guests. local experts that know their work. Thank you Anna Sardella, Giuseppe, Stefania for making our lives in Italy easier.
Jackie Pearce
We have worked with the Trulli & Dimore team since 2018, successfully concluding three separate transactions with them. The purchase of our villa was an incredibly complex deal involving multiple steps and completion dates. At every point, T&D were at our side, offering their experience and guidance.
As expats (Americans) and non-Italian speakers, we had absolute trust in their knowledge and expertise. They NEVER let us down. After the villa transaction was completed, they were still by our side helping us navigate the complexities of owning an Italian property. Their willingness to go above and beyond normal expectations is exemplary! They are an incredible resource and I heartily recommend them to anyone buying, selling or wanting to rent their property.

Buying property in Puglia as a foreign buyer
Can I buy remotely, without travelling to Puglia for every step?
Many of our international clients begin the process remotely. We offer video viewings and can liaise with a notary on your behalf for certain stages. We will always be transparent about which steps genuinely require your presence.
How do you protect me from legal or bureaucratic issues?
Our in-house legal adviser reviews all building permits and land registry records for every property before you make an offer. Most issues – if any exist – are identified and resolved at this stage, not after signing.
What types of property do you handle?
We specialise in trulli, masserias, traditional stone lamie, villas, townhouses and prestige apartments across the Valle d’Itria and Puglia’s most sought-after towns: Alberobello, Ostuni, Monopoli, Fasano, Polignano a Mare and beyond.
How long does the buying process take in Italy?
From accepted offer to final deed, the process typically takes between two and four months, depending on the property’s documentation and financing arrangements. We keep you informed at every stage.
Are there extra costs beyond the asking price?
Yes, as in most countries. Typical additional costs include notary fees, registration tax and agency commission. We provide a clear cost breakdown early in the process so there are no surprises.
Can you recommend English-speaking notaries, surveyors or solicitors?
Yes. Over 20 years we have built a trusted network of English-speaking professionals – notaries, geometers and tax advisers – who regularly work with international buyers.
