Claudia Turco, a real estate consultant with Great Estate for four years, tells us about her experience with the group.
LET ME INTRODUCE MYSELF
My origins are Sicilian, but I grew up in Tuscany. After graduating from IPSC Italo Calvino in Città della Pieve, I attended law school for two years.
For about 10 years, I worked in the administrative department of some businesses in the Città della Pieve area, and then collaborated with some companies involved in the sale of catering equipment; a job that, however, did not satisfy me. Later, I was contacted for a one-year collaboration by a real estate agency in the province of Siena, where I worked for about four years.

In my spare time, I enjoy a variety of hobbies, including philosophy, history, and gardening. To relax, I like watching movies, decorating, and taking walks by Lake Trasimeno — and, whenever possible, by the sea.
THE MEETING AND COLLABORATION WITH GREAT ESTATE
The meeting with Great Estate came in 2021 when, with determination, I decided to move forward and terminate the collaboration with the other agency.
I thank Stefano Petri, CEO of the group, for opening the doors of Great Estate to me and giving me confidence from the very beginning. With Great Estate, I started writing a new chapter in my personal and professional life, having the opportunity to study and deepen all aspects of this complex but equally fascinating and engaging job! Today, I work as an Italian Property Consultant at Great Estate’s office in Castiglione del Lago, and I deal mainly with the management of Italian vendor clients.
THE GROUP’S VALUES AND METHOD
Fairness and professionalism are the values that form the foundation of our group, and for me, they have been an important stimulus to improve myself, both personally and professionally. In our work, fairness is the basis of daily living: when you know you are honest and humble, you can face the whole world and … the garden will always have a new shoot!
PLANS AND GOALS FOR THE FUTURE
I see a future of growth and self-improvement, through getting to know and actively listening to new clients, to be better and better performing in every area of my business, and to be able to provide comprehensive and satisfying counselling.
