Buying in Roana is well above the Vicenza average of €992/m². Averaged across 6 OMI micro-zones, which can differ substantially within the same town. OMI records no rental figures here.
Housing here in excellent condition costs 53% more than ordinary condition — €2,022/m² against €1,325.
That gap is what the market charges for a place you don’t have to work on. It is not what the work would cost you — OMI prices property, not builders.

Compared street for street — houses and flats priced in the same neighbourhood — a house costs 27% more per square metre.
OMI prices “Ville e Villini” separately from the apartments every other figure on this page describes. Nationally a house costs about 14% more per square metre, but in 450 comuni it costs less — worth checking rather than assuming.
