Who we are

A long-term owner of Italian real estate.

Epoch Properties S.r.l. is the Italian real estate company of the Privitera family office. We invest our own capital, with no fund clock and no pressure to flip — which lets us take on assets that need time, care and a clear plan.

We own the buildings; specialist partners run them. Our role is to secure the right asset, restore it properly, and align the operator with its long-term success.

Investment focus
01

Hospitality assets

Hotels and resorts in Italy's leisure destinations — coastlines, islands and historic towns — where the location is irreplaceable and the building deserves a second life.

02

Special situations

Properties held back by complex ownership, financing or legal histories. We work with experienced Italian counsel to resolve them cleanly and put the asset back to work.

03

Operator partnerships

Long-term leases to specialist operating companies, structured so that rent, capital investment and performance move together — owner and operator on the same side.

04

Hospitality technology

Drawing on two decades in Silicon Valley, we bring modern data, AI and event-technology tools to the properties we own — to run them better and to fill them year-round.

Approach

Four steps, no shortcuts.

I

Source

Off-market and complex opportunities, found through local relationships and careful legal and technical due diligence.

II

Acquire

Clean title and a disciplined price, with capital ready and decisions taken quickly — our own money, our own timeline.

III

Restore

Renovation that respects what makes the place unique, with modern systems, energy efficiency and quality that lasts.

IV

Lease & operate

A specialist operator runs the business under a long-term lease; we stay involved as owner, investor and technology partner.
