Advantages

Gravanti’s stylistic intent is reflected in the accurate details of the sturdy crowning cornice and the Ghibelline battlements, symbolic elements that evoke the glorious past of the ancient fortifications. The magnificent wooden main door catches the eye with its overlapping ogival arches, creating a suggestive visual effect. Inside, a welcoming courtyard opens onto an intricately carved external staircase, adding further beauty and sophistication to this authentic architectural jewel. Furthermore, there is the possibility of creating a Roman bath in the basement, a wellness center equipped with thermal water that reaches directly inside the palace via private conduits.

Location and nearby infrastructure

Sciacca is a very popular coastal town all year round. It is known for its fresh fish and its fishing fleet (the second largest in Sicily). Famous for its ceramic and coral craftsmanship, as well as for the traditional carnival, which annually attracts numerous visitors from all over Italy. The city is located in a suggestive Mediterranean environment, surrounded by a coast full of historical monuments, golden beaches, thermal springs and beneficial muds. Currently, the area is experiencing high-quality tourist development, also thanks to the presence of numerous luxury hotel facilities. Sciacca occupies a strategic position in the surrounding context and is easily accessible from the main airports of the island (40 minutes from Trapani airport, 50 minutes from Palermo airport and 120 minutes from Catania airport). The city has become an open-air museum with the creation of the widespread Museum of the 5 senses. Over the years, events of international importance have been held such as the five consecutive years of the Google Camp, which saw the participation of the international Jet Set on the local territory. Another significant event was the Dolce & Gabbana fashion show to present their collections.

      FAQs
      • Can I get a mortgage abroad?

        It depends on the country. For example, German banks willingly offer mortgages to foreigners at 1.5-2 % per annum with LTV up to 70%. Spain offers less favourable terms: the minimum rate for foreigners is 2.5% per annum. The situation is different in Greece: although the law does not prohibit banks from issuing loans, in practice, Greek banks don’t issue loans to local nor foreign property buyers. You can learn about the mortgage terms in your preferred country by contacting Tranio’s local agents.

      • How does the purchase procedure work?

        The purchase procedure depends on the country where you buy property. Generally, after choosing a property you need to sign a preliminary agreement with the seller and carry out a due diligence of the property by checking the relevant documents and the property's technical condition. After that, all parties sign the sales agreement and the notary registers the transaction. As a rule, the purchase registration costs amount to approximately 10% of the property price.

      • Can a residence permit be obtained by buying property?

        In some countries it is possible. Residence-for-property purchase programmes are known as Golden Visas programmes. Greece, Spain and Latvia offer the most popular Golden Visas in Europe. The Greek residence permit is the cheapest and can be obtained by buying a property worth at least €250,000, while organising all of the documents costs about €19,000. Certain countries offer citizenship to property buyers — for example, an investor can get their hands on a Turkey passport by buying a property worth at least $400,000.

      • How does Tranio make money if your service is free for the clients?

        We share the commission, which the buyer or the seller (depending on the country) pays to our partners — foreign real estate agencies. The price of this service is the same as if you contacted the agency directly — this is an important condition and applies to all of our partnership agreements.

      • Who guarantees the transaction security?

        The transaction security is guaranteed by the notary who draws up the sales agreement and checks the information on the previous and current owners of the property, any outstanding restrictions, mortgage, and third-party encumbrances. Tranio is not responsible for the parties involved in the transaction.
