The questions, answered
How much tax do you pay to buy a €300,000 home in Trentino-South Tyrol?
The rates are national, so Trentino-South Tyrol pays what all of Italy pays: €6,100 on a resale bought from a private owner as a prima casa, €27,100 as a second home, €12,600 on a new build from a builder as a prima casa and €30,600 otherwise, before the notary's fee.
Why are there no sales figures for Trentino-South Tyrol?
No figure: Trentino-South Tyrol is entirely under the tavolare (land-book) system, which the Agenzia delle Entrate OMI series does not cover.
How do I find the IMU property tax rate in Trentino-South Tyrol?
Each Italian municipality sets its own IMU rate by resolution, published on the Ministry of Economy and Finance site (finanze.gov.it, IMU rates search). A main home in categories A/2 to A/7 is exempt; in the provinces of Bolzano and Trento the tax is called IMI and IMIS.
