Well I'm sure others here can give you a more authoritative reply, but it sounds to me like these are just normal certificates you need in any case for a house in Italy regardless of renting out (but which I'm sure you will need to have also to do so).

I assume you are asking for agibilità in which case it covers all works done with their respective certfication, as well as the habitability of the house - which means the rooms must be legal heights, have minimum wundow sizes, ventilation etc. However, at the moment agibilità is not obligatory in Italy - you dont need it to rent or sell. Banks can and do insist on it for mortgages, but it remains a choice.

Thank you, that's very interesting, and not what we've been led to believe. Do you know if the requirements for agibilita are the same all over Italy? We are in the commune of Citta della Pieve, Umbria.Thanks again for your reply.

Yes, agibilità is the same

Yes, agibilità is the same all over Italy. If you have a new build house or have had major structural interventions it can be obligatory, but usually not. Personally i think it will become obligaotry in the near future, which is going to be very expensive and difficult for many people, but a huge source of income for comuensa nd government. https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agibilità Some comunes are more thorough than others.

As I understand it, only about 10-15% of properties in Italy have the Agibilità certificate

Thanks for your replies. I've since found some helpful websites about agibilita, all in Italian though!

Hello!i'm an italian lawyer and i give legal assistance even in the field of real estate contracts. My advice is to wait for the habitability certification because if you don't get it, that means that the contract you'll sign for renting the property would be void for "aliud pro alio", as many national Courts always stated. Otherwise, you are able to rent without certification but you must write specific provisions about it in the contract.Maria Rosaria

Well that depends surely on whether the rental contract stipulates that the house has agibilità. If it doesnt then there is no void clause?

It's a duty of the owner of the house to give the habitability certification to the tenant, but the owner may be exempt from the duty to provide the certification by writing specific contractual clause about that, which the tenant must agree with. Whether the owner doesn't provide the certification, and there is no specific clause that exempts the owner from liability, the rental contract is considered void by the Court.
