The property is in ITaly so Italian law takes precedence. On paper she is 50% owner, BUT it all depends on the wording of the divorce - if it divided 'all' the estate then there is still paperwork to do in ITaly to take her name off the property. If it wasnt nominated at all in the divorce then she is still half owner according to Italian law, unless you get it sorted out by a UK court.
HE's doing everything - so the price is relatively normal. Pay above board and then you have comeback if something goes wrong and he will want it paying properly as its all declared works and as direction of works, and health and safety it must be declared. He's also included the collaudo and signing off of works - so his fee will be according to the cost of the works you are doing.
Presumably you are planning your extension with the allowance from Piano Casa - this means a SCIA (A permission from the comune which is less than a full building concession and is a supposedly streamlined version of being able to do work which would otherwise need a full building permit) or possibly a building concession. If you are in a protected zone this will also mean a nulla osta from the Beni Culturali - all of which the geometra will have to sort out, and all of which mean fees. Add in a pool which will double up your fees and permissions, and its easy to get to a figure of 5000 plus. Presumably your geometra is doing the progetto massimo, (the initial drawings and idea of cost) and then the progetto esecutivo (the official version) which will then be sent to the comune. There will also be the geologist fee, and a computometrico which is usually done by a third party 'calcolista'. The geometrawill then have to be director of works, and be rsponsible for health and safety on site etc etc etc. The DURC is a certficiate which shows that your building company is up to date with taxes and contributions, and without that they cannot be considered for the work, and must be named on the SCIA/concessione submitted to the comune for approval. The paperwork is lots, much more than the uk - so you just have to grit your teeth and pay up. Obviously there will be 'professioniste' who think the foreginers are a cash cow, so its worth getting a few quotes from different geometras, but they must also list what their quote includes. For geometras there is no scale of fees, so they will ask what they think they can get away with, but they will also have to queue for days in various offices and file multiple copies of everything, all covered in tax stamps.
Do not assume that things cost the same as the UK nor that you can do the work yourself, because you will need a DURC and be registered at the comune as a company assuming you are doing the work with a SCIA.
There are two ENEL's - Enel servizio nazionale and ENEL Energia - at least for the moment, You need to know which is your supplier on an older contract. .
Who is the electricity supplier and where is the property? You will need to contact the supplier, pay the arrears and they will reconnect the supply. You will need your client number, your POD number -both of which are on a bill. Depending when the power was cut off there may be a reconnection charge to pay.
If they want a proper CF then they will need to go to the local tax office (Agenzia dell?entrate) and request one using the form which you can download from the AdE site. They will need to take their passport and a photocopy of it. If they buy a SIM then most shops will generate a CF for them, but it will not be the official stamped version and there is a slight possibility that it will be the CF of someone else with the same name, birthday and country of origin. It takes 10 minutes to get at the AdE as long as there is no queue.
You could sell it in Italy but it would have to be delivered by you with the same plates as your UK car. Otherwise it has to be reregistered as an Italian caravan with its own numberplate - with all the costs and insurance that that entails. I was thinking of bringing down a UK caravan to sit on my land, but without a UK car its virtually impossible. How much are you asking for it?
Not necessarily. A preliminary can be drafted at a notary or by the agent. If the notary is doing it, and you are not transcribing it as a public act, it remains a private contract, and must contain all the details of the agent, who then must register it at the Agenzia dell'entrate. You can insert as many clauses as you like - obviously with the consent of the seller. A translator is more important than a lawyer at that point, assuming you dont speak ITalian.
