Verona Property Market and Real Estate Guide

(Verona, Veneto, Italy)



Scenic city view photo of VeronaVerona is a classically beautiful Italian city that was granted World Heritage Site status, due to its stunning architecture and old structures. Its location in the north of the country ensures that it attracts endless streams of visitors and investing in property here is a realistic way to make solid returns.

Verona's artistic heritage mixed in with its ancient structures is what gives it such magnetism and the city enjoys many annual fairs, operas, shows and displays. Property here commands high rental prices for short term holiday makers and buying property to rent out to tourists is a great way to make an investment.


The city is home to a skyline devoid of skyscrapers and the whole region boasts an old fashioned, Italian atmosphere with quaint streets and pleasant locals. The majority of residential properties are found on the edges of the city and the few that have made their way closer to the centre are expensive to rent and rarely enter the housing market.

Renting Serviced Apartments

There are very few serviced apartments in this old city and those that are here tend to offer basic amenities and facilities. Parking can be an issue and security services tend to be overnight only, rather than 24 hours a day - a service that is expected in large, westernised cities.

Apartments in Verona are usually fully furnished, but can be furnished in an old fashioned style that may not appeal to gadget-fans who are looking for wide screen TVs. Deposits vary depending on location, with an apartment outside the main city demanding around half the monthly rent than those in the heart of the action.

Buying Apartments and Houses

Purchasing properties in Verona as a foreigner should be done via an 'agente immobiliare' (estate agent), although it is important to note that they will take a fee from the buyer and seller of a property once a deal has been reached, as it is commonplace to work for both parties.

Tax and fees to the Notary must also be paid and the amount will depend on the purchase price. An Italian bank account is a must, as is an Italian tax code, all of which should be organised by your solicitor or estate agent. Those looking for good profit gains may wish to buy in Verona, since figures suggest property owners should make around ten percent every year.

Real Estate Agents

Using an estate agent for finding a rental or property to purchase is the easiest way to house hunt in the city. Many speak good English and the Internet is the best place to search for an agent, since interested parties can check out the company portfolio online before making an appointment.
