The description explicitly says this is an auction purchase ("acquisto in asta", "Custode Giudiziario"), which is a veto red flag for this catalog. Even though the listed price is €35,000 for 68 sqm, auction status overrides deal value and makes it unsuitable here.
More on the house and the area
The listing price is very low for 68 sqm, but the photo set does not credibly show the actual home. What seems to be the real property is an ordinary apartment in a plain condo block, with no proven character, view or special setting. Habitable may be true, but the gallery gives almost no trustworthy evidence of the apartment itself.
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 – €7,000
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.
- Photos appear mismatched and mostly show unrelated gardens, sea views and landmark settings rather than the actual apartment.
- The only plausible building shot suggests a plain apartment block with no visible charm or view.
- No real interior photos of the flat, kitchen or bathroom are shown, so livability and condition cannot be verified.
- Auction sale: documentation, occupancy status and condition should be checked carefully.
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 55/100This cluster sits in the built-up area of Reggio Emilia, so the lived setting is an urban plain in the central Po Valley. The Crostolo crosses the city and the Secchia is to the east. The nearest larger landscape feature is the northern Apennine foothill belt south of the city, but it is outside the immediate urban surroundings. Reggio Emilia itself is a provincial capital with a substantial historic centre, services, rail links and industry, and it is known for the tricolour flag museum and for Parmigiano Reggiano in the surrounding area.
