When buying a home in Italy, it’s crucial to have a clear understanding of the associated closing costs. Proper planning can help ensure a smooth transaction and avoid unexpected expenses. Below are some of the key costs you should anticipate:
Notary Fees
In Italy, the involvement of a notary is mandatory for real estate transactions. The fees charged by notaries can vary depending on the type, location, and value of the property. For example, purchasing a property valued at €100,000 might incur notary fees of approximately €2,000. This is a necessary cost to account for in your budget.
Real Estate Agent Fees
Both buyers and sellers in Italy typically pay commissions to real estate agents, with rates usually ranging between 2% and 5% of the property’s sale price. Ensure that commission agreements are clearly outlined in writing before making any offers and that it is also in writing when the commissions are to mature and when payment is due.
Taxes and Duties
Different taxes apply depending on the property’s characteristics and the buyer and seller involved. The most common taxes are Value Added Tax (VAT) and Registration Tax, with only one of these alternatively applying to a specific transaction. VAT usually ranges from 4% to 10%, while Registration Tax may vary between 2% and 9%.

Buying property in Italy does not automatically grant residency; you must apply for a separate visa and residency permit. You can apply for an Elective Residency Visa if you have a passive income, or the Investor Visa for those making significant investments. You may also be eligible for other visa types, such as a work visa.
