What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €79,000 (€1,113/m²), the asking price is already 2.7× the Emilia-Romagna baseline of €412/m²; allowing €700/m² for the unspecified condition raises the effective cost to about €1,813/m². The listing is recent and well-photographed, but condition, construction year, and energy class are missing, with no clear value premium from the location.
Certified wiring, water and drainage, a heat source, a roof that keeps the water out, one working bathroom. Facade, insulation, a second bathroom and the floors wait.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Our read of the photos, €700/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€14,000 – €25,000
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 38/100Piacenza sits in the Po plain at the meeting of the Po and Trebbia rivers, with flat agricultural land around the city and the first hills of the Val Trebbia and Val Nure beyond the southern edge of the plain. The city itself is a provincial centre with a substantial historic core, major services, rail links and motorway access. This is an urban and logistics corridor of the lower Po rather than a distinct landscape setting.
