The Co-Founders

CASAFORTA wasn't born in a boardroom. It was born in the field — led by two co-founders who share one conviction: you can only manage well what you've first learned to read.

Two operators, one discipline

CASAFORTA is led by its two co-founders. Both bring real-world experience in real estate, property management, work coordination, and building operations. Together, they run CASAFORTA as a private office : a limited number of mandates, a constant standard, and a single interest — yours. It's a condition-first approach: facts before decisions.

Giacomo Ciavaglia — Co-Founder · Real Estate Operations, Property Management, Work Coordination & Building Inspection

Co-founder of CASAFORTA, Giacomo Ciavaglia brings extensive experience in real estate, property management, work coordination, and building operations. He adds the discipline of a building inspector: reading the building, documenting visible conditions, understanding risk, and translating the real condition of the asset into better owner decisions. His work with Inspecteur Élite strengthens CASAFORTA's condition-first approach — facts before decisions, and operations grounded in the reality of the building.

John Maniatis — Co-Founder · Real Estate Operations, Property Management & Work Coordination

Co-founder of CASAFORTA, John Maniatis brings extensive experience in real estate, property management, work coordination, and building operations. His role is to strengthen the company's practical judgment: how buildings are operated, how work is coordinated, how risks are understood, and how owners make better decisions from organized information.

What we believe

We own nothing and sell nothing on the side : a single interest, yours. We coordinate licensed partners for regulated work, we document every decision, and we measure real condition before acting. That's how a building is protected — and how it grows in value.
