What advice to expats in Portofino have about housing?

Answer this Question

When we asked people living in Portofino about the social scene there, they described it saying...

"Expats in Portofino, advise that housing can be quite expensive due to the town's popularity as a tourist destination and its stunning coastal location. They recommend considering renting or buying property in the off-peak season when prices may be slightly lower. It's also suggested to hire a local real estate agent who is familiar with the area and can help navigate the local property market. Expats also advise to thoroughly inspect any potential property for issues, as some of the buildings in Portofino are quite old. They also suggest considering properties in the surrounding areas, such as Santa Margherita Ligure or Rapallo, which are less expensive but still offer easy access to Portofino. Lastly, understanding and respecting the local culture and community is important when choosing a place to live," wrote a member who made the move to Portofino, Italy.
