Property prices
Buying in Tignale is above the Brescia average of €1,392/m². Based on a single OMI micro-zone, so it describes the town as one market.
27.9 years of rent here equal the purchase price — above the national median of 22.2 years.
A ratio between two OMI prices, not a return on investment. It leaves out purchase taxes, IMU, maintenance, financing and the months a place sits empty — all of which push the real figure up. Useful for the question it does answer: whether this town looks expensive to buy relative to what renting in it costs.
Housing here in excellent condition costs 29% more than ordinary condition — €2,100/m² against €1,625.
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.
