See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction (ASTA) — auction/legal risks require specialist due diligence. Price €36,477 (≈€388/m²) versus a regional reference of €585/m², but the auction status makes it a risky buy.
More on the house and the area
Solid, habitable 1980s villa set in a sizeable olive grove with pleasant hill/valley views — an immediately livable country home. Interiors are functional but dated, so this is a clear bargain for someone willing to modernize cosmetically and manage the auction paperwork.
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€6,000 – €11,000
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.
- Dated 1980s interior and bathrooms — cosmetic updating recommended.
- Property is sold at auction — require legal due diligence and expect procedural delays.
- Outside and courtyard need basic maintenance; verify basement/utility condition before buy.
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.
