This is a judicial auction property, so it is not a straightforward home purchase and falls into the highest-risk category. The 63 m² apartment is also described as being in very poor condition, despite the €5,000 asking price.
More on the house and the area
The images show a polished modern apartment, but they are not representative of this property and provide no reliable evidence of its beauty or condition. The actual 63 sqm apartment has four rooms and a small courtyard, yet is described as being in very poor condition and would require substantial renovation before it becomes a usable home.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€25,000 – €37,000
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.
- The listing explicitly says the photos are indicative and not the actual property.
- The apartment is described as being in very poor condition, especially its systems and interior/exterior finishes.
- Auction purchase: legal, access, utility, and renovation details require verification.
- Energy class G; bathroom and services should be confirmed against the real documentation.
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 is known for mussel farming in the Mar Piccolo and for heavy industry around the port.
