Dear Anna,
I cannot thank you enough for all your hard work in successfully selling my house. There were a lot of problems to overcome to find a buyer and even more obstacles during the sale. You managed to overcome them all and kept a lot of pressure off me.
It was a pleasure to work with you and I hope your future sales are more straightforward.
With very best wishes,
Lindy

Anna was our real estate agent when we bought our house in Tuscany. She was very helpful during the whole process. Thanks to her the whole process went very smooth. She answered all our questions very quickly and she was also very clear in what information and paperwork she needed from us so the process could progress. She was also very helpful with our codice fiscale and making appointments with the notary, etc. we really recommend her if you want to buy or sell a house in Italy
Thanks

Dear Anna, it is with great pleasure that I write to you now that we have finally bought the property that you have brought to our attention last summer. Obviously we were lucky to choose Tuscany Inside to enable us to find a nice site to build a house on. From the first meeting on we felt comfortable and- perhaps with a bit of luck on our side-you proposed just the place suitable for us. In your bureau as on visiting the site you never rushed things and saw that all questions we had were always quickly and competently answered. Your efforts as a go-between between the seller and us made the whole deal possible. Even in the face of unexpected difficulties on the side of the seller you invested all the effort needed to close the deal. And your knowledge of the English language is great as well. In short-we shall recommend you wholeheartedly in case that we meet anybody looking to buy land in Tuscany. All the very best wishes from us regarding future business and personal wellbeing

Dear Anna,
Ann and I want to thank you for your very appreciated help during the sale process of our property in Tuscany.
It was with mixed feelings that we sold our nice place that we bought 15 years ago, already with your help.
We left behind so many good family memories and enjoyed every minute we spend at Collinella. But we felt it was time to move on.
You have been our perfect guide in this process. Despite the unprecedented and difficult time we are facing, you managened to sell our property to the right family who will love this place as much as we did.
You never gave up even in these hard times. You were always available for all our questions and were there at any step in the process till the very end. You never lost track of any details and carefully managed all
administrative obligations. We have known each other now for than 15 years, we keep an excellent memory of our collaboration.
If we would ever re consider to buy a property in Tuscany, it goes without saying that you will be our advisor !
All the best and thank again !

`We engaged Anna to sell our apartments in Tuscany and would have no hesitation in recommending her and her agency to anyone looking to buy or sell property in this region. Our sale was incredibly complicated and we had many sleepless nights trying to resolve issues with the local council for reasons beyond our control - thankfully Anna was with us every step of the way and helped us with local accountants and surveyors to complete all legal documents and certificates. As we are not Italian speakers, Anna was prepared to act on our behalf and liaise with banks, solicitors and our Notaio in the sale and went over and above what was expected in order to complete the transaction. When we had to cancel our trip to Italy for the contract signing at the last minute due to Covid restrictions Anna stepped up to take on Power of Attorney on our behalf and for this we will be eternally grateful. Anna brings enthusiasm, energy and professionalism to her role as agent and was invaluable to us over recent years, we consider Anna to be a good friend and again have no hesitation in providing this recommendation. We wish her and the agency every success as we move on from the Covid pandemic.`

I just purchased my 2/2 condo / apartment in Tuscany and I was extremely impressed with the service I received from Tuscany Inside. Anna simply made the process painless and helped me every step of the way. The purchase was a little bit complicated being that I live in the USA and I do not speak Italian, but she assisted me at each phase of my purchase. She even helped me find contractors and suppliers for a new kitchen, and a local accountant to assist with ongoing management of expenses and taxes. I recommend Tuscany Inside without reservation, Anna was fantastic. If you are an international buyer, you should consider working with Anna.
Thank you Anna for all your support!

Dear Anna
Vicki and I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for all the professional help and support you have provided us throughout the purchase of our property in Tuscany and subsequently.
You have devoted so much time to help navigate us through the process and we are truly grateful! If it hadn’t been for your support and guidance I really do not know what we would have done. Your grasp of the English language was a huge advantage and meant we really understood clearly what was expected.
Thank you so much, we are extremely grateful and hope to see you soon for that glass of wine.
Regards
Phil and Vicki

Hi, Anna and Mino -
I'm so pleased, and I'm so sad...and I'm so grateful to you two for making the sale possible.
Thank you!
There were times when I thought - this is just too difficult, too frustrating...so thank you for staying with it.
Thank you for being a pleasure to work with! I knew very quickly that I could trust you at every step of the way - even when the authorities were threatening my sanity ...(and probably yours, too)
Thank you both for being totally focussed and professional, and always available to deal with the questions that you had already answered twenty times the day before.
Thank you for your patience in steering me through the sometimes incomprehensible minefield of the commune's rules
(Actually, I'm still struggling with that one...)
Thank you for being able to think outside the box when things got difficult Essential!
And thank you for always being good humoured and calm - it's an essential requirement for an estate agent, in my book.

We have just sold our house in Tuscany and were extremely impressed with the service from Tuscany Inside. Anna found us buyers within 8 weeks of advertising the house which was incredible. The sale was complicated due to land boundaries but Anna sorted everything out to ensure the sale proceeded. The professionalism from Tuscany Inside was of the highest standard and I would highly recommend them to anyone who wants an english speaking agent who can support them completely throughout either the sale or purchase of a property in Tuscany.
Thank you once again Anna.
Kim Marks.

We have just completed the purchase of our farmhouse in Volterra Tuscany through Tuscany Inside estate agents. This was a very complicated purchase due to various factors, but with the expert help and advice from Anna any problems were expertly dealt with. Anna was always available to answer any concerns we had and is extremely professional. I feel that this purchase would have fallen through had a less experienced agent been involved, so thank you Anna for ensuring all the issues were resolved so we could move into our dream Tuscan home.

"Anna was a patient and informative guide during our search for a home in Tuscany in 1999. Her ability to listen, question and suggest good options resulted in a great choice. Beyond that Anna was very knowledgeable in working through the complex process of contracting, closing, furnishing and occupying our farmhouse outside of Volterra. Over the years, she has helped with various questions and issues, including the purchase of a neighbor's apartment and combination of the properties. Her advice has saved us a great deal of confusion and headache. We look forward to spending more time in our Italian home, and the pleasure of interacting with Anna ... a true professional and a good friend."

Thanks to you our dream came true and you were a really great help by taking care and assisting us in every step of our buy.You organized the notary, the translations, etc. Even to open the bank account you prepared everything.
It is true we were considered as friends instead of just customers. At anyone who would buy something in Italie we would recommend you as you helped us so good in everything.
We wish you a prospere bussiness in 2014

We have been clients of Anna Riviecchio for over 10 years now, ever since we first decided to buy a property for vacation and possibly retirement later in Tuscany. We finally opted for a nice house from plans during the World Cup finals of 2006, high on a hill with spectacular panoramic views.
Throughout all our searching and researching, Anna has always been thoroughly professional, supportive, and helpful in every way, including several site visits, and with translational assistance for us foreigners, including steering us through the legal ramifications of purchasing, and with the banks, architects and engineers, and builders. Anna is perfectly suited to these tasks, not least because of her excellent command of English, but also because she treats her clients as friends as much as buyers, and shows great interest, concern and commitment to all.
And she does all this, and goes the extra mile, willingly and with a smile and sense of humour, thus defusing the stress of purchasing from abroad, always inserting herself as required as the vital link in transactions and communications.
We would never consider going anywhere else in connection with real estate, so good has our experience been.

Anna has been an important part of our lives in Italy. When we exchanged contracts in 1999 she was with us all of the way from employing an architect to helping with completion details as well as the developer. We could not have managed without her friendly and professional approach. I would have no hesitation in recommending her to others. She is skilful and sensitive to managing the challenges of buying and selling in Italy and is always prompt and efficient and clear in her emails and communication. She deserves to go from strength to strength and it is a privilege to have her support.

Anna,
We wish you an happy new year and hope that all your dreams will be realized in 2014.
We remember the great job you did for us a few years ago.
We meet you in San Gimignano during the summer, we told you we were dreaming of a house to buy in Tuscany.
You showed us a few places , you finally found what we were searching, you gave us the confidence to explore the project of renewing ruins in Volterra....
At the beginning, we thought it's impossible. You took part in so many discussions with the architect, with the constructor, the lawyer, the insurance representative,.... and finally we did it.
We found in you the right person for acting.
Each time we take a flight to Pisa, we remember all the story. Incredible ! We did it !
Thanks to you.

"For years , we have searching to acquire a nice property in Tuscany. Anna has been our perfect companion during this project.
Together we visited many beautiful places. After a while, Anna felt exactly what we were looking for. She proposed us a wonderful place "Collinella".
She was extremely helpful with all the paperwork, notary deed, translations etc... We could always rely on her.
We enjoy this place now for more than 7 years . Even after we bought the place, she remained at our service to solve some minor issues afterwards.
Anna is really the trustworthy person that we could recommend you to help to find your dream place in Tuscany !"

My wife and I have been traveling to Tuscany for our holidays for over 15 years. We were always dreaming of a place of our own in the Tuscan countryside. We visited many agencies and researched 100's of properties online, but without the advice and support of an experienced agent, it is extremely difficult to manage the buying process, particularly if your first language is not Italian. Anna Rivieccio of Tuscany Inside, offered us a complete solution from identifying the most suitable property for our budget, guiding us through the negotiation process, and ensuring contractual arrangements are fulfilled in a timely manner.
If you're looking to realise your dream home in Tuscany, through an experienced professional and secure service, we wholeheartedly recommend Tuscany Inside.

"For many years we were looking for a house in Tuscany where we would come during the holidays and where we would live a great part of the year in the future. Anna found us precisely the right house in the right spot, with a gorgeous view and an outstanding quality of the structure, in an old farm restructured in a few refined appartments.
She was there to help at every step of the adventure in a time when our weak knowledge of the italian language made things potentialy difficult , everything became easy and went smoothly and without surprises.
What else can we say : Thank you Anna for making a dream come true !"
