Givitaly was founded by two Italian professionals now based in Vilnius, Lithuania:

With deep local knowledge in both countries and decades of hands-on experience, Givitaly makes owning a home in Italy simpler and more accessible.

Filippo Erasti

Architect with over 15 years of international experience in residential and commercial design, interior architecture, and property development across Italy, Germany, and Lithuania. Educated in Italy and Spain, Filippo combines strong design sensibility with a deep respect for detail, materials, and client vision. Having lived and worked in Lithuania for several years, he understands how to connect Lithuanian clients with Italian opportunities—navigating the nuances of both cultures and markets. His projects consistently reflect a careful, human-centered approach and a commitment to delivering refined, high-quality results.

Gabriele F. Sbalbi

Senior civil engineer with over 20 years of experience in design, project management, and construction. For 15 years, he co-owned an architectural and engineering studio in Italy, leading numerous residential, commercial, and industrial projects and gaining a deep knowledge of Italian building standards and real estate dynamics. His international work—in Mexico as a real estate developer and in Northern Europe with top firms like COWI—gives him a unique ability to guide clients through cross-border processes with clarity and confidence. At Givitaly, Gabriele provides expert property evaluations, technical guidance, and full oversight from renovation planning to construction supervision, ensuring that every investment is both aesthetically compelling and structurally sound.

Together, they’ve worked on a wide range of real estate and architectural projects—from restoring historical buildings to creating modern, customized homes—giving them deep insight into both the creative and technical sides of the Italian property market.

Living in Lithuania, they recognized a growing need for a service that could help Lithuanian and international clients safely and confidently navigate Italy’s property landscape. Givitaly was created to provide that support: helping clients find the right property, understand legal and bureaucratic steps, plan renovations, and coordinate every aspect of the process—from design to construction.
