See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is explicitly an asta immobiliare (judicial auction), which is a veto regardless of the €45,896 price or €2,700/m² headline. The 17 m² villa listing also describes a mixed complex with warehouses, agricultural land and other structures, making the advertised dwelling details unclear.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuine, furnished and apparently usable home rather than an empty shell, with tiled rooms, functioning-looking bathrooms, heating and a balcony. However, the interiors are heavily cluttered and ordinary, while the exterior is plain and somewhat worn, with no strong historic character or beautiful setting to create a major dream-home effect.
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€1,000 – €2,000
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.
- Auction purchase requires careful legal and property-document review.
- The exterior is plain and somewhat neglected, with a cluttered balcony and aging roof edges.
- The setting appears semi-rural/industrial rather than scenic, with no proven exceptional view.
- Reported size and bathroom count conflict with the photos; verify the actual livable area and facilities.
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.
