to not buy a house in the the Gello valley by Mart Hijmans, founding partner
carefree Investment
How does it work
The houses at Castello and Borgo are for sale to private buyers and the Novanta Hotel in Borgo di Gello will manage and rent out these holiday homes. There are two types available. Almost turn key ready houses and proporties in the form of a forward funding sale. This means that restauration of an old house, based on the design of the Novanta architect-team, starts after signing the sale contract. Deposits will be done during construction that finance the building proces.
Next to the houseowner enjoying his or her stay for 8 weeks in a year, the Novanta Hotel will manage maintenance and rents the house to their guests.
The houseowners are united in a rentpool. The yearly ROI is based on the ownershipshare and the collective rental income that the houses make after detracting all relevant costs.
Be part of the revival
We restructure old farmhouses and barns, rebuild pathways and terraces, plant fruit trees and revive the ancient gardens to fill the village with life once again.
