The €29,160 price (€304/m²) is far below the €600/m² local comparison level, but this is a judicial auction and the 96 m² apartment is unfinished, lacking systems, plaster, floors and windows. The listing incorrectly labels it renovated, while the actual condition indicates a major restoration project.
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€38,000 – €56,000
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 78/100The cluster is in the inland part of Fasano, on the Murgia dei Trulli plateau where olive groves, dry-stone walls and scattered trulli are part of the immediate landscape. The Adriatic coast at Savelletri and Torre Canne is within about 15 km, with low rocky shore and stretches of beach. The regional park Dune Costiere da Torre Canne a Torre San Leonardo lies along this coast. Ostuni is the nearest town of size in the wider area, with a substantial historic centre on a hill. Alberobello, within roughly 15 km, is UNESCO-listed for its trulli, and this part of the area is known for trulli, masserie and olive growing.
