Homes of Quality and Frank Salt Real Estate recently showcased a selection of properties in the Italian regions of Tuscany, Emilia-Romagna and Sicily at Le Meridien St Julian's.
Italy is becoming increasingly popular as a destination for a holiday home with Europeans and Americans showing a keen interest in buying property. Maltese residents are purchasing real estate properties in Italy with renewed vigour and an increase in demand for residential properties overseas is noticeable.
The rental market is also strong. "We felt that the move to sell property in Tuscany and in Sicily was a natural one, given its proximity to Malta and the amazing opportunities to buy houses with land for relatively low prices" said Grahame Salt, director, Homes of Quality.
The company's portfolio of properties in Sicily resulted from a serious evaluation of the property market. Joe Lupi, managing director for Frank Salt, said: "Once the right Italian associates were found, a thorough exercise was undertaken to locate which parts of Sicily offer the best investment potential as well as peace of mind."
