Founding Partners
Each Territory has three Founding Partner places for luxury real estate agencies and three for developers. All six are open.
Places are filled first come, after approval. Founding Partners are presented side by side and in rotation, and every buyer who asks about this Territory is pointed to them. Partner pages are clearly marked as paid.
Buying here
Many buyers discover a place as guests, return to view homes in person and buy on a later visit. Start with our guide to Portofino & the Ligurian Riviera.
Many international buyers own before they ever visit: they view homes by video, work with a licensed agency and an independent lawyer, and sign from home where the law allows.
Funds, family offices and companies buy whole buildings and portfolios, working directly with the Founding Partner Agencies and Developers of this Territory.
