What it really costs

Not before the basics are done
In the listingNeeds renovationSee what needs doing and what each job costs
Large 600 m2 townhouse offered at €80,000 but needs heavy renovation estimated at €700/m2 (~€420k), so effective cost is ~€500k or ~€833/m2—about twice the regional baseline of €417/m2, making it overpriced for the area. The listing does not state year built or energy class.
More on the house and the area
Large roadside building with some usable ground-floor commercial space but the upper levels are an exposed, unfinished shell. This is a project property — attractive for a bargain conversion but not move-in ready and will need significant work and mitigation of road/noise issues.
Certified wiring, water and drainage, a heat source, a roof that keeps the water out, one working bathroom. Facade, insulation, a second bathroom and the floors wait.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Our read of the photos, €700/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€119,000 – €211,000
Wiring, water and sanitary work of any kind, heating, air conditioning and gas go to a registered firm by law, and so do flues and the air openings for gas appliances. That labour stays in the bill. Yours is the stripping out, plaster, paint, floors, tiling and carpentry.
Labour is 61% of a renovation price on average and 67% at the median, across 191 items of the Emilia-Romagna 2025 public price list. Materials are the rest. An averaged price list, not a quote.
Materials you buy yourself carry 22% VAT; supplied by the firm doing the work they go at the 10% renovation rate. On a €30,000 materials bill that is €3,600 of extra tax.
Household wiring installed before 13 March 1990 counts as compliant if it has a main breaker with overcurrent protection, protection against direct contact and a 30 mA RCD. Having a firm bring the existing wiring up to that and certify it is the cheapest lawful route.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.

No mains drain: add €2,000–4,500 for a septic tank. Listings never say, so ask.
- Upper floors are unfinished brick shell with no windows or interior fittings — full renovation required.
- Ground-floor bar appears finished, but most of the building lacks bathrooms, kitchens and proper services.
- Prominent roadside location / roundabout — noise and limited privacy; check planning and access constraints.
Estimate from the listing and its photos, not a survey. Treat it as the starting point for your own quotes. An Italian builder's quote is normally written without VAT and without design fees, so add about a quarter to any figure a firm gives you.
The area around
Location score 56/100The cluster sits in the inland valley country of northern Calabria, between the lower foothills of the Pollino massif to the north and the broader Esaro-Coscile plain. The Esaro river system shapes this area, with cultivated valley floors and low ridges around the town. Pollino National Park begins within this wider inland zone to the north, and the first mountain roads into the park and toward the Orsomarso-Pollino uplands are a short drive away, but the immediate 15 km landscape is mainly agricultural hills and valley land rather than high mountain scenery. The nearest larger centre is Castrovillari, which has the main services, shops and hospital for this part of the province. The area is known for olive groves, vineyards and mixed inland farming typical of the northern Calabrian interior.
