Why this price is what it is

This is a judicial auction, so it is automatically classified as a trap regardless of the €48,450 asking offer. The listing does not state the property's condition, occupancy, or total acquisition costs; at €1,211/m², the offer is also well above the local €550/m² reference before renovation.

More on the house and the area
What the photos show

The spectacular snow-covered mountain and ski-resort view is the clear attraction, and Roccaraso gives this small apartment a genuine alpine setting. Inside, it appears to be a complete, usable home with kitchen, bathroom, heating, and furnished rooms, but it is dated and lacks distinctive character. This is a practical mountain base rather than a beautiful Italian dream house.

Minimum to live in it€350–500/m²
€14,000 – €20,000

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.

€24,000 – €36,000

All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.

Our read of the photos, €700/m², falls in this band.

Full€1,200–1,500/m²
€48,000 – €60,000

Turnkey, facade and insulation included.

Materials only, work you may do yourself€8,000 – €14,000

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.

What worries us about this house
  • Judicial-auction purchase: occupancy status, legal documentation, fees, and timing require verification.
  • The apartment is very dated and compact, with old furnishings and a basic kitchen and bathroom.
  • Large, institutional apartment block with likely shared-building costs and potentially high winter heating expenses.

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 72/100

The cluster is in the Abruzzi sector of the Apennine chain (Alto Sangro area). Roccaraso is a mountain town with an elevation around 1,200 m and is surrounded by Apennine peaks and ridges. A developed ski resort and lift network serving slopes on Monte Pratello and Monte Aremogna (the Roccaraso–Aremogna / Alto Sangro ski area) is centered on and around Roccaraso. Nearby small towns with tourist services include Rivisondoli and Pescocostanzo. Sulmona is the nearest larger town with a train station, shops and wider services. The upper Sangro valley and its river basin lie in the local landscape and the area is used for winter skiing and summer mountain tourism.
