Property prices

To buy

1,040 /

To rent

1.60 /m²/month

About the Pavia average of €1,069/m². Based on a single OMI micro-zone, so it describes the town as one market.

Buy or rent

54.2 years of rent here equal the purchase pricewell 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.

Condition

Housing here in excellent condition costs 25% more than ordinary condition — €1,300/m² against €1,040.

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.

House or apartment

A detached house here averages 820/m², against €1,040 for an apartment.

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.
