The following maximally costs for two appraisals and our commission are incurred for the sale:
– An energy certificate (APE – attestato di prestazione energetica), which is valid for 10 years if no energy-related measures will be carried out, e.g. upgrading the heating, installing a heat pump or new windows. Depending on the size of the house, the energy certificate costs 300-450 euros per unit – with the exception of cellars and garages – and it is drawn up by a specific technician.
– A Due diligence report regarding the building permissions (RRE – Relazione di Regolarità Edilizia), which proves that all building permits – including historical ones – are available and that these are congruent with the current status of the house, as well as confirmation that the cadastral plans and entries correspond to the actual conditions. This report usually costs between 350-600 euros, depending on the size of the house, and it is drawn up by a surveyor, architect or engineer.
– Our commission: if we find a buyer for your property, our commission is 3% plus VAT (IVA in Italy 22%) on the purchase price – being near to the minimum of the commission usually demanded in Italy. For properties under 100,000 euros, we charge a minimum commission of 3,000 euros + IVA. The first half of the commission is payable on conclusion of the preliminary contract; the second half on conclusion of the contract.
