House prices in Novara
The OMI values of the Italian Revenue Agency, area by area: a yardstick for comparison, not an appraisal of a single property.
In Novara a home in the centre can be worth up to €2,250/m², while in the agricultural zone the minimum value drops to €490/m². These are the extremes of the OMI property values (quotazioni OMI) for the 1st half of 2026: the values that the Italian Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) publishes every half-year for each zone, in euros per square metre, with a minimum and a maximum, for homes in normal condition.
There are 17 zones with values. If you are looking at an auction in the centre, in zone B1 (Centro Storico, Garibaldi, Manzoni and nearby) the reference range is between €1,550 and €2,250/m². If the property is on the outskirts, as in zone D8 (Rizzottaglia, Cittadella, Torrion Quartara), the range is between €1,150 and €1,650/m².
If you are thinking of renting, the median figure is about €4.8/m² per month. In the central B1 zone the range runs from €6.1 to €9.1/m² per month. The rents on registered contracts, that is the average rents lodged with the Italian Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) in 2025, are €6.8/m² per month for the 4+4 (the open-market lease) and €6.4 for the 3+2 (the agreed-rent lease, canone concordato). For students on a transitional contract the figure is €5.6.
In the provincial capital, home sales have been 1,646 over the last four quarters, from the 3rd quarter of 2025 to the 2nd quarter of 2026, with 481 in the last quarter. The annual change is 19%, and the share with a mortgage is 55%.
When you look at an auction, compare the price with the range for your zone and remember that these values refer to homes in normal condition.

What the OMI range really tells you
The OMI values of the Italian Revenue Agency are ranges for an area, a property type and a period. They do not value a single flat and do not replace a professional appraisal. A fair comparison also needs condition, floor, exposure and documentation.
On the auction pages, the “below the area value” discount shows how far the minimum offer per square metre is below the minimum of the area range. A lower value does not equal an expected gain.
