Sardinia · Buy-Side Only · 2026

Market intelligence.
Project management.
Always on your side.

We do not sell property. We do not represent sellers. We are engaged exclusively by the buyer — to analyse the asset, audit the risk, and manage the acquisition end to end.

Our Position
Zero
Seller fees. Inventory. Conflicts. We are paid to say no.

The Sardinian market runs on asymmetry.
We engineer the certainty.

AcquireSide is a buy-side market intelligence platform and property acquisition project management consultancy. We neutralise the capital penalty the Italian market imposes on unprotected foreign buyers — through official data, forensic audits, and end-to-end project management.

We are not brokers. We hold no inventory. We take no fees from sellers. Our only mandate is your entry point.

OMI
Official government cadastral data — the price benchmark no selling agent uses
AirDNA
Live short-term rental performance — yield projections stress-tested against reality
ISTAT
National demand fundamentals — structural drivers behind long-term asset value

Alex Iacoponi — Founder, AcquireSide
ESCP Business School
Native Sardinian
20 years London GTM
Lead Advisor

Born in Sardinia.
Built for this market.

Educated at ESCP Business School. Twenty years as a Go-To-Market Lead for technology companies in London.

When I returned to my native market I saw the same inefficiency in every transaction: international capital entering an opaque, fragmented system with no independent intelligence layer to protect it.

I founded AcquireSide to build that layer — combining native local networks, cross-border operational experience, and independent data analysis. To maintain the standard this work requires, AcquireSide works with a maximum of 10 investors per year.
