Ciao, Italy! The Agency is strengthening its European presence with the debut of The Agency Sardinia, marking our very first location in Italy. The new office is led by Managing Partner Salvatore Baldinu, who brings deep local expertise and a strong understanding of one of the Mediterranean’s most coveted luxury markets.
“Sardinia is unlike anywhere else in the Mediterranean,” said Mauricio Umansky, CEO and Founder of The Agency. “There’s a level of authenticity here that’s becoming increasingly rare; from the rugged coastlines and hidden beaches to the culture, history, and pace of life that make the island so special. Buyers today are searching for more than just luxury, they want privacy, beauty, and a real connection to place. Sardinia delivers all of that. We’re incredibly proud to launch our first office in Italy in such an extraordinary destination.”
Set off the western coast of Italy, this beautiful island boasts 1,000+ miles of coastline, scenic hidden beaches, granite mountain ranges, and ancient forests. A certified Blue Zone, Sardinia offers picturesque coastal living, inviting communities, and a mild year-round climate. Buyers from around Europe and the U.S. gravitate toward the Costa Smeralda and Puntaldia, a resort community anchored by a major port and golf club. Three international airports and international schools make Sardinia equally suited for vacation retreats, primary residences, or long-term investment. Few destinations in Europe offer Sardinia’s balance of natural beauty and cultural depth.
“There are markets that naturally align with The Agency brand, and Sardinia is absolutely one of them,” said James Ramsay, EVP of The Agency’s Franchise Division. “The lifestyle, the international appeal, the architectural beauty, and the level of luxury found throughout the island make it an incredible addition to our global portfolio. Salvatore Baldinu brings the local expertise and vision that make this partnership especially exciting.”
“Sardinia has a way of capturing people immediately; the landscape, the lifestyle, the culture, it all feels incredibly genuine,” said Salvatore Baldinu. “Our clients are drawn to the island not only for its beauty, but for the sense of privacy, wellness, and authenticity that defines life here. From coastal villas and contemporary residences to historic estates and investment opportunities, Sardinia offers a level of lifestyle and long-term value that continues to attract buyers from across Europe and increasingly the United States.”
The Agency Sardinia will be located at Piazzetta PN18, Puntaldia (SS), Sardinia, 07052, Italy.
