When is a property considered luxury?

To be considered luxury, a property must meet one or more criteria defined in the Ministerial Decree of August 2, 1969. In particular, its characteristics must be different from the ordinary in terms of size, finish, location, quality of materials, and other particularities that determine its exclusivity.

How much does it cost to manage a luxury property?

Management of a luxury property can have widely varying costs depending on the size, type of property, location, attached outdoor space, and its use, whether as a main residence or as a rented property. These are generally higher costs than ordinary property management, starting with taxation and ending with daily cleaning of high-value fabrics and materials.

What are the taxes payable on luxury properties?

Those who own a luxury property must incur expenses for the following taxes: IMU, the rate of which varies by territory; Tasi, which is calculated on the cadastral value; and TARI, a tax that is based on the size and number of inhabitants of the property. It should be remembered that for the purchase of a luxury property there is a different and higher taxation than the ordinary market, as well as for those who decide to put it up for rent or resell it within 5 years of purchase as a first home.

How to declassify a luxury real estate?

The Presidential Decree of 1986 states that it is possible to change the cadastral class of a property (e.g. from category A1 to category A2) if “for a three-year period the actual gross income of a real estate unit differs from the cadastral income by at least 50 percent of it.”

Does having a pool make a property luxury?

The presence of a swimming pool (even an in-ground pool) is not enough to make it automatically determine that a property is stacked as luxury (with the associated increased tax liability). It can, however, increase the value of the property itself in the market.
