What sort of help do you want?
I'm rather busy with the weeds in my garden at the moment-Oh and all the new tax doo dads!
Don't mean to be snippy but your post is hardly informative.

Not snippy at all logitech!  I totally agree with you that there's too little information to give sensible advice.  Sad 

Is the flat on one floor or two?  Who is going to live there?  Does lucasmarge have children?  A wife?  A lover?  Or both?!  Smile  Smile 

Can he knock down all the walls and create a large open plan apartment?  Would he want to?  Is he a he or she a she?

So many questions and so few answers! Shocked

I'm sure that Steve, logitech or I don't want lucasmarge in any way to feel intimidated by us.  I'm equally sure that everyone on this forum, including the 3 of us, wants to make the newer members welcome and feel at home.

But forum life is like a sewer.  What you get out depends on what you put in!  Very Happy

Hi Lucas.
You can obviously post the weblinks, if it will not post , then just leave a space in the link. so we can see what you are getting at doing. If they are bad, then we will just delete them!!
I am sure someone here will be able to help you out.

New members are not allowed to post external links or emails for 7 days...

See you soon Wink
in the meantime:
For this type of renovations, there is the possibility of deductions? 
anyone has already renovated home in Italy?

Best advice, get in touch with a local Geometra and ask his advice on permissions you will need and ways of carrying out the job. Often a ''good'' Geometra will give you this advice for free on a first consultation.

hi,welcome,well first of all i do understand your problem.i lived in milano for over twenty years and i did live in a few places like this WTF all those stupid corridors and antecamere (spaces outside rooms) etc. As this will involve some, all be it minor demolition, my best advice would be to ask friends /colleagues/ neighbours/the building administrator if they know a good reliable geometra to draw up plans for you in order to find out what you can do (legally) and get relative planning permission if you tried to do this without building permission passed your flat would anyway become unsaleable in the future.once all that is out of the way you can ask around for a good building team to do the work.IF you're living /working and paying income tax in italy there is an interesting benefit at the moment being that you can get a 35% reduction of your costs in the form of tax relief.This however does not apply if you're a non resident and not a tax payer unfortunately.
