Versilia, Lucca, Pisa, and Liguria: the luxury real estate sector beats the pandemic
Foreign buyers’ interest for prestigious real estate is immune to Covid-19
On one hand, the Covis-19 pandemic has affected – and unfortunately heavily damaged – numerous sectors. On the other hand, the luxury real estate sector has been stable, also due to the buyer target – people who will very easily bounce back financially. Broker Immobiliare Exclusive Real estate lists luxury properties for sale in the luxurious seaside locations of Versilia and southern Liguria, as well as in the historic cities of Pisa, Lucca, and Livorno.
In future, 2020 will be remembered as the annus horribilis, the first of a pandemic which is only now yielding the first true signs of improvement – thanks to widespread vaccinations – as 2022 approaches. The many anomalies and difficulties we have lived through in this last couple of years have unfortunately damaged and hindered many industries, many of which have only just started to bounce back. The luxury real estate sector hasn’t experienced major losses.
There are many reasons why the idea of buying a luxury property in Italy is still appealing to foreigners. During this pandemic, an additional one is surely the prospect of south working, as in remote working in the peacefulness of a small town – an arrangement which, despite the name, is achievable anywhere in Italy. In fact, the south is not the only preferred area for foreigners. Tuscany is also popular, particularly the city of Lucca.
The “city of a hundred churches” captivates and charms potential buyers from numerous countries.
According to an article published on the Tirreno on 11 October 2021, Lucca has recently outranked Florence as the most desirable Tuscan destination. As the article states, Tuscany in particular is the most sought-after region, with 15.30 % requests. Buyers interested in the historic city of Lucca are from the United States, northern Europe, and Canada, as well as from Asian and Arab countries. Broker Immobiliare has also recorded positive data, such as increased revenue in the first 8 months of 2021 throughout Italy.
The string of varyingly prolonged and rigorous lockdowns has put the importance of livable outdoor spaces in the spotlight and made them one of the topmost requests. Swimming pools are a must-have for nearly everyone. State of the art technology – such as a strong internet connection to work from home – is also among top requests, as well as rooms to be set up as home gyms. Rooms to be set up as studies are also appreciated. As far as location goes, proximity to the sea or to the hills are both very popular.
