01
The wrong asking price
Starting too high reduces interest and lengthens the sale. Starting too low leaves value on the table. The asking price must be a strategic choice, not an experiment.

Who leads Pasteque
The name is new. The experience behind it is not.
I am Piergiorgio Barletta. I founded Pasteque Real Estate to bring a different way of selling property to Trieste and Gorizia: less improvisation, more strategy. Every owner I work with knows what is happening, why it matters and what comes next.

Where value is lost
An improvised sale does not only cost time. It can reduce the result.
02
An improvised presentation
Photography, documents and the way the property is presented shape its first impression. If they are weak, even a genuinely interested buyer begins by asking for a discount.
03
A negotiation you merely react to
Every offer must be considered as a whole: price, conditions, buyer strength and timing. Without data and a clear strategy, it is easy to concede more than necessary.
04
A sale that loses momentum
When a property remains on the market for too long, it loses freshness and negotiating strength. Preparing every stage in advance helps protect the outcome.

How Pasteque works
Three principles. One objective: your result.
Strategy
We do not begin with the listing. We begin with the strategy: price, positioning and timing decided before the property goes to market.
Transparency
You receive a report every week: what happened, why it matters and what comes next. You always know where the sale stands.
Protecting value
Negotiation is prepared, not endured. Every offer is assessed and managed with the aim of protecting the value of your property.
The Pasteque Method
Six stages, one point of contact through completion.
An operational plan with specific actions, defined timings and a weekly update. From the analysis before instruction through completion, decisions are prepared before the market responds.
01
Before instruction
Analysis and information pack
Before the appointment to discuss the instruction, you receive a detailed valuation with comparables, the proposed sales plan, agency terms, testimonials and anticipated timings.
02

Preparation and documentation
Preliminary checks, technical requests, coordination with professionals, professional photography and enhanced floor plans or renders where useful.
03

Launch
Professional listing copy, marketing material, publication on Immobiliare.it, a sale board where possible and appropriate, and preparation of local flyers.
04

05

06
From accepted offer to completion
Coordination and support
Coordination with notary, technicians and bank, mortgage support through qualified professionals and assistance through completion.
The Pasteque Guarantee
A written commitment. Not a vague promise.
The guarantee concerns the activities in the sales plan and the stated deadlines.
If even one of the actions in the attached sales plan is not carried out within the stated timeframe for reasons directly attributable to Pasteque Real Estate, the instruction may be terminated without penalty.
The stated timeframes depend on the owner’s cooperation, access to the property, delivery of the necessary documentation and the absence of delays attributable to public authorities, technicians, banks, notaries or other third parties.
The guarantee applies to the detailed sales plan, which remains available at all times.
Our commitment is simple: if we ask for your trust, we must make it verifiable.
English translation for information. The signed Italian documents prevail.
