Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €812/m² before works, this is already about 6% above the Lodi benchmark; allowing €200/m² for an unspecified condition raises the effective cost to roughly €1,012/m². The listing gives almost no detail and only one photo, so the apartment’s true condition and value are difficult to verify.
More on the house and the area
This appears to be a conventional 80 sqm apartment in Lodi, with no photographic evidence of standout interiors, views, outdoor space, or historic character. The home may be practical, but its condition and livability are unclear, and there is currently little to inspire a dream-home reaction.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €200/m². There is no published price band below €350/m², so the range is that figure widened by the spread of the lightest band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€5,000 – €9,000
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.
- Only a placeholder image is provided, so the interior, exterior, views, and character cannot be assessed.
- Condition, building age, and energy class are unspecified.
- A standard three-room apartment in a well-served area is not presented with any distinctive setting or historic features.
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 52/100The cluster lies on the flat Pianura Padana (Po Valley) agricultural plain. The Adda river and a network of irrigation canals, including the Canale Muzza, run within the 15 km radius. Part of the Parco Adda Sud (regional park along the Adda) is within reach. Nearest ski lifts are in the Bergamasque/Orobie Alps and the Valtellina, roughly 1.5–2 hours' drive. Lodi itself is the local town of size and contains a cathedral (Duomo di Lodi), a medieval historic centre, a hospital, a railway station with frequent commuter services to Milan and close road access to the A1 motorway. The surrounding plain is intensively farmed and hosts dairy and arable agriculture and related food-industry activity.
