Property prices
Buying in Zanè is below the Vicenza average of €992/m². Averaged across 5 OMI micro-zones, which can differ substantially within the same town.
14.2 years of rent here equal the purchase price — well below 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 53% more than ordinary condition — €1,278/m² against €835.
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.
