What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €1,163/m², this is more than twice the local comparison level of €545/m²; after allowing roughly €400/m² for maintenance to the two bedrooms, the effective cost is about €1,563/m². The sea is only 1 km away, but the apartment is leased until November 2028, offers only €4,800 annual rent, and the listing does not say when the building or apartment was last fully renovated.
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.
Our read of the photos, €400/m², falls in this band.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€10,000 – €17,000
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.
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 55/100The cluster is in the built-up area of Salerno, on the Gulf of Salerno with the Tyrrhenian coast at hand. The Monti Lattari begin to the west above Vietri sul Mare and the first bends of the Amalfi Coast are just beyond them, but those are outside the immediate urban surroundings. Salerno is the nearest town of size and in practice the place itself: it has a seafront, port, rail connections, university facilities and the main city services of this part of Campania. The historic core includes the cathedral and the hilltop Arechi Castle above the city. The area is known for being the urban gateway between the plain south of Naples and the Amalfi Coast.
