In short
In Veneto, a €300,000 resale home bought from a private owner as a prima casa pays €6,100 in purchase taxes, €27,100 as a second home; 63,824 homes changed hands there in 2024 (OMI). That is 13.1 sales per 1,000 residents, against 12.5 for Italy; the tax rates are national.
What the sales data say about Veneto
No single province dominates Veneto. In 2024 the OMI series recorded 63,824 home sales across the region, and the largest province, Venice, accounts for 21.6% of them with 13,757. Verona (12,332), Padua (11,634) and Vicenza (10,152) are not far behind, a more even spread than in most regions.
Within the 7 provinces, capoluoghi count for only 23.8% of regional sales. Padua's city is the biggest share of its province at 31.0%, Vicenza's the lowest at 17.4%.
Provisional 2025 results diverge too: the region reached 67,159, +5.2%, Padua moved by +7.6% while Venice added just +1.6%.
On a population basis, Veneto records 13.1 transactions per 1,000 inhabitants, 6th of 18 regions, a little above the 12.5 average for Italy. The region's 8.9% of national sales compares with 8.2% of the people counted by ISTAT (sales from the Agenzia delle Entrate). Regional averages can hide how different the local pictures are, and volumes are not prices.
Venice's province leads the region with 13,757 sales, or 21.6% of the Veneto total, ahead of Padova with 11,634 and Treviso with 9,986. Yet Venice grew only +1.6% provisionally, while Belluno (+12.3%) and Rovigo (+10.0%) rose faster. In Treviso the capoluogo holds just 13.3% of provincial sales.
Data as of 31 December 2025 for OMI home sales (2024 final, 2025 provisional, collected on 19 October 2026) and 1 January 2026 for ISTAT population.
