What is wrong with this community forum?  It used to be so good, now it is difficult to navigate, posts from as far back as 2009 head the top of the page and there are a heap of spam-like posts that are just downright annoying!  Can we go back to

I recently purchased a small flat in an Umbrian town but I can tell you that it has taken me years to get to this point.  I started researching years ago and came across exactly the same situation as yourself.  I would fire off email after email i

il valore della casa cadastrale e' Euro 33000.  Io ho offerto Euro 9500, e pago quello.  Devo pagare le tasse di Euro 3225 ( come il valore cadastrale e 33000) ma volevo chiederLa se, secondo Lei, sarebbe qualche problema nel futuro sicomme il prezzo che pago e' molto diverso al valore cadastrale.  Grazie mille.

Just another question Ugo, in regards to one of your comments.  Although the cadastral value of the place is Euro 33000, I am paying Euro 9500.  I was just wanting to ask if, in your opinion, this will cause me any problems in the future?  Thank you

Thanks Ugo. You have mentioned this before and I will certainly look into it when the property is finally mine

Brilliant response Ugo, thanks so much. I will certainly follow your instructions when handing over money. Thanks again

Well I wish I was buying this flat through you! But unfortunately this house is listed with this particular agency and we have come too far to pull out amd syart looking for something else. Thank you re info on tje aperizia giurata. I certainly do not want any further interference to get this house done up so i will confront them about it. I am purchasing it for €9500 but cadastral value is €33000, but IMU is only €242. per annum

It is in the historical centre of Gualdo Tadino. It is in habitable but unrestored condition and is 50sqm.

Yes it does seem high for the price I am paying for the place but they don't calculate it on such a low sale price but on a mimimum. Also they have really earned it with the kerfuffle I have had being an Australian citizen non resident and being here in Australia and not in Italy. The only thing that is freaking me out is the fact that the bottom is falling out of the Australian dollar raising the costs
