Giancarlo Caponeri
Real Estate Agent and Master Renovator
info@domusitalia.net
Giancarlo specializes in the sale and restoration of fine Italian properties in Tuscany and Umbria centered around Lake Trasimeno. From Cortona to Orvieto, Perugia to Montepulciano and surrounding areas.
With over a decade in Italian banking before he became the principal of DOMUS ITALIA--and more than 80 property restorations for international clients since that time--Giancarlo offers an unusual and reassuring combination of financial insight and artisan sensibility. It is also helpful that he writes and speaks English fluently.
Signore Caponeri easily guides his clients through experience of buying property in Italy -- from serving as a concierge during the your initial property visit to the ultimate financial details and documents needed to complete the sale. He has over the years made a list of FAQs of buying in Italy which we have included here.
Clients who select Giancarlo for their restoration, soon appreciate his access, gathered over time, to Italy's finest craftsmen. A true "impresario", he has at his disposal teams of masons, ironworkers, joiners, electricians, plumbers and more. All are so proud of their work for him that they sign it with small ceramic tiles in the artisan tradition. Yes, there are craftsmen left who are proud enough to sign their work. Sr. Caponeri himself has an artist’s eye for the small detail, the found piece, the simple idea that makes each restoration both beautiful and personal.
Even in restoration, he is never far from his banking background. He manages restoration timelines precisely to ensure that work flows smoothly, saving time and, as he says, consequently-- money. He also personally manages each step of the restoration with on site visits daily and provides clients with frequent updates, precise itemized bills and expenses and comprehensive written reports including consecutive, numbered photo images of the renovation work in progress.
Like his properties, Giancarlo Caponeri is a true find. We hope you'll have the opportunity to meet him and work with him. His renovations have been featured in shelter magazines over the years and that speaks volumes for his talents as an estate agent and true artisan restorer. He will happily show you examples of his work and can provide recommendations from any number of satisfied past and present clients as well.
