Selling a property is not just about economic negotiation: a large part of the process involves documentation. A single error, a missing certificate, or outdated information can slow down the negotiation or even bring it to a halt.
When dealing with a property sale, one of the most important aspects concerns the clarity and accuracy of cadastral documentation. This is often the stage when doubts about terminology arise: terms like cadastral map reference (mappale) and cadastral parcel are frequently used, but not always with full awareness. Understanding the difference between the two is not just a technical detail—it is a crucial step to avoid mistakes, delays, or misunderstandings during a property transaction.
In recent years, the concept of bare ownership has attracted growing interest, both among property owners looking for new ways to manage their assets and among investors seeking long-term opportunities. This method allows different needs to be reconciled: on one hand, it provides immediate liquidity to the seller; on the other, it allows the buyer to access a property at a lower price compared to full ownership. In this guide, we analyze in detail what bare ownership is, the advantages it offers for both sellers and buyers, how its value is calculated, and which aspects should be considered before proceeding.
Selling a property is never a simple process, but when it comes to a home subject to usufruct, the complexity increases. Usufruct is a property right that limits full ownership of the asset, creating a situation in which the parties involved, the bare owner and the usufructuary, must act in agreement. For many owners or heirs, this condition may seem like a great obstacle, but with the right guidance it is possible to handle the sale clearly and safely. In this guide, we analyse all the key aspects you need to know, enriched with concrete examples and practical cases.
