In these cases tax + registry charges on residential property will total 9% of the ‘valore catastale’. These are calculated by the notary according to a number of assessment criteria which often results in a figure considerably below the purchase price. Agricultural land is currently subject to tax at 18% of its ‘valore catastale’. Agency fees are normally 3% of the purchase price, + IVA If an architect or geometra is employed, charges are generally calculated on a time-related basis. It is advisable to obtain quotes for any major works or renovation projects.Luxury farmhouse and barn in Tuscany: Luxury farmhouse near Lucca
