Market overview

The Rome real-estate market represents, with the one of Milan, almost 70% of the Italian housing sales. In 2006, the residential market reached its peak regarding the annual sales but due to the 2007 crisis, this market was considerably impacted. Since 2014, the sector has started to rise and this increase may stabilize over the years. This growth is favoured thanks to low interest rates on mortgage loans. Besides, since 2008, prices have been lower, which is a major advantage for investors. Despite the previous elements, the Rome real-estate market is particularly attractive for foreign investors. It is the perfect time to invest and realize a nice capital gain in the next few years.

Who buys?

The main investors who choose Italy as the country to purchase a property equally come from the United Kingdom and Italy. The majority of the other investors come from Russia and the rest of Europe.

High Season
Apr 01 - Oct 31

From April to October, it is the best moment to enjoy Rome as the weather is particularly favourable and places are less crowded in April/May and in September/October. However, during the Holy Week in Easter and the Rome marathon, millions of tourists converge to Rome to attend these international events.

Peak Season
Jul 01 - Aug 31

The months of July and August correspond to the hottest period in Rome, with suffocating temperatures. But the numerous "Nasoni" fountains, with fresh and drinkable water, allow to quench your thirst between two tours.

Church of Saint Clare (Chiesa di Santa Chiara)

The Church of Saint Clare is a Roman Catholic church in Rome, situated in Vigna Clara. The parish was built in 1959 to be dedicated to Saint Clare. In 1969, Pope Paul VI granted it a titular church as a seat for Cardinals. Designed by Alberto Ressa, the monument is on a perfectly circular plan and has a squat central tower.  Behind the altar, there is a series of paintings, which include scenes of the Nativity and the Annunciation, all created by Mariano Villalta.

Trevi Fountain

Situated in the heart of the city, close to Parthenon, the Trevi Fountain is a must-see attraction in Rome. Commissioned by Popo Benoït XIV, it was created by Nicolas Salvi in 1762. The legend says that a young girl, named Trevi, indicated the location of a spring to Roman soldiers in order to preserve her virginity. This monumental fountain brings water from a water spring called "Acqua Virgine". This splendid landmark has the shape of a temple or even a triumphal arch. This magnificent work of art, which is the most artistic fountain in Rome, is an allegory of the ocean representing at the center Neptune, standing on a chariot in the form of a shell, with various elegant statues and columns as well as waterfalls cascading over rocks. The custom suggests that visitors toss a first coin so that they ensure to come back to Rome and a second coin to make a wish.

Palazzo Poli

This is the Palace behind the Trevi Fountain. It was commissioned in 1573 to Mr Longhi. Originally called " Ceri Palace", it became the Duke of Poli's property in 1678. However, in 1888, the city of Rome decided to expropriate the building in order to preserve the Trevi Fountain has both monuments are built together. Nowadays, the palace is home to the National Chalcography Institute for Graphics and displays exhibitions throughout the year. Once inside, visitors can admire its fine architecture.

As the famous saying states it:"All roads lead to Rome" and this exceptional city has a lot to offer thanks to its 28 centuries of history.
