What a buyer pays in Siracusa (Ortigia)
The $1,372 figure is a regional average across all residential property types, which flattens a wide spread — the most sought-after areas run well above it, the rest of the region well below. Buying costs — transfer tax or stamp duty, notary, registration and agency — come to about 14% of the price here. On a 100 m² apartment at the average price that is roughly $19,208 on top of the $137,200 purchase price. That is above the 10.2% median across the set — the entry cost is part of the investment case here.
What it earns
A square metre lets for about $11.0 a month. Against a purchase price of $1,372 per square metre that is 9.6% gross, before tax. Both figures come from the same source and the same period, so you can check the arithmetic yourself. That is the highest gross yield of the 88 markets we track. Rental income is taxed at 21%, which takes the yield down to 7.6% net. The 2-point difference between the gross and net figure is the part most listing sites leave out.
Who can buy in Siracusa (Ortigia)
Freehold; reciprocity required for non-EU buyers. That is the rule a foreign buyer meets first, not legal advice — check the current position locally before you commit.
