See what needs doing and what each job costs
This €33,300, 80 m² property is being sold through a judicial auction, so it fails the catalog’s legal-purchase threshold regardless of its apparent €416/m² price. The listing also says the images are indicative rather than real, making the stated habitable condition difficult to verify.
More on the house and the area
This appears to be a standard 80 sqm townhouse in a dense residential setting, without visible views, land, or distinctive historic character. Although listed as habitable and including a garage, the gallery is illustrative rather than real, so there is little evidence that the attractive renovated interiors are part of the property.
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.
- The listing explicitly says the images are indicative and not the actual property photos.
- Auction purchase adds legal, timing, and due-diligence risks.
- The urban setting appears dense and utilitarian, with no visible garden, terrace, or notable view.
- Bath count and the home's actual interior condition are not verified by the listing.
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.
