Introduction
Pioltello stands confirmed as one of the most dynamic and well-connected urban centres in the eastern hinterland of Milan. In particular, the Central belt — taking in the historic and well-served areas of Centro, San Francesco and Mantegna — offers excellent liveability, a wealth of family services, generous green spaces and fast connections with the Milanese capital via the suburban rail link and the proximity of the main roads.
For anyone wishing to buy, sell or rent a property in this area, having reliable and up-to-date data is essential. In this article we analyse the official values published by the Italian Revenue Agency (OMI database) for the second half of 2025, giving a clear and transparent picture of the local property market.

Buying a home or a garage in central Pioltello (in the Centro, San Francesco and Mantegna areas) calls for careful analysis of the state of repair of the property, a factor that significantly affects the final market value.
Here are the average prices per square metre for purchase:
