OUR PROPRIETARY PROTOCOL

The "Codice Elli"

Thirty years of investing have taught us that a disciplined process is the only real safeguard for investors.

If an opportunity does not meet the standards of the Elli Code, it is never put forward.

01

Identification 

Off-market sourcing through our local network. We access opportunities that are not publicly available.

02

Evaluation

Technical, legal and financial due diligence conducted with our certified local partners in each market.

03

Structuring

We determine the most efficient investment structure—whether an SPV, a Club Deal, or a direct investment—based on the opportunity and the investor’s profile.

04

Execution

Direct on-the-ground oversight to supervise development and keep timelines and costs on track.

05

Management

Post-purchase support, property management and regular reporting. We stay involved long after the deal is signed.

THE TEAM

The people behind every investment.

Two people. Two markets. One commitment: the personal capital of those who put forward each investment is always invested first.

FOUNDER · ELLI REAL ESTATE

Maurizio Elli

Thirty years of real estate investments across Italy, Brazil and Zanzibar. He invests his own capital in every opportunity he puts forward. This is not a formula. It is the way he has operated since 1994.

“Before putting an investment forward, I evaluate it as if I were the only investor. Because I genuinely invest in it myself.”
