This is explicitly an 'ASTA IMMOBILIARE' (judicial auction), which is a veto red flag for this catalog despite the low ask of €35,250 (€271/m²). The description also says the property is currently rented ('immobile locato'), adding execution/possession uncertainty.
More on the house and the area
This looks like a practical, habitable single-storey house with a decent roof, driveway and small private yard, so it reads as a real usable home rather than a project. But the exterior is very plain, with no visible view, notable architecture or special setting. The low price for 130 sqm helps, yet the lack of interior photos and auction/tenant status keep the wow firmly modest.
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€9,000 – €14,000
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.
- No interior photos, so charm and finish quality are unproven
- Auction sale adds procedural/occupancy risk
- Currently tenanted (immobile locato)
- Exterior is plain and semi-rural rather than scenic
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 35/100This is the central Po plain, with flat agricultural land, canals and drainage ditches around the settlements. The Secchia is the nearest substantial river system in the area, running east of Fabbrico. Correggio is the nearest larger town, with a substantial historic centre and services; Carpi is also close, with a larger old centre and the Pio complex. The area is known for intensive farming and for the wider Emilia plain economy of dairying and food production.
