Investment Properties on Lake Garda

Visitor numbers and steady rental demand make Lake Garda an interesting market for investors. This section holds properties already let, auction opportunities and commercial premises to rent out, chosen for yield and position.

How we work with you

Before the purchase we do the arithmetic together: valuation, expected yield net of costs, timing and risks. We know how the market differs between areas of the lake, and that weighs on income more than the grade of the property.

Frequently asked questions about investment properties on Lake Garda

What kind of properties are in this section?

Properties already let with a current contract, apartments suited to tourist rental, commercial premises and opportunities at auction or to be split. The selection is small because we publish only what has a verifiable return.

Why invest on Lake Garda?

High tourist demand from April to October and growing off-season too, Italian, German and Northern European buyers, supply limited by the territory’s constraints: prices have held even in the weak phases of the national market.

Tourist letting or long-term contract?

Tourist letting yields more but needs management, registration and compliance with municipal and residence rules; a long-term contract yields less but with no work and tenants all year round, sought mainly in Desenzano, Salò and Riva del Garda. We give you the actual figures of each property.

How does buying at auction work?

You submit an offer with a deposit by the date set by the court, based on the published appraisal; if there are several offers, a bidding round follows. There is no agency commission on the auction price, but we assist you with the viewing, reading of the appraisal and paperwork for an agreed fee.

What taxes does a landlord pay?

Rents are usually taxed with the flat-rate substitute tax (cedolare secca) or with ordinary income tax; then IMU and the waste tax. Rules change often, especially for short lets: we put you in touch with an accountant.

Can a foreigner buy a house on Lake Garda?

Yes. EU citizens buy on the same terms as Italians; for other countries the reciprocity rule applies, which covers most cases (for example Switzerland, the United Kingdom, the United States). You need an Italian tax code and, for the payment, a bank account: our agency follows you through every step, in English and German too.
