What it really costs
Can you move in?
Livable, but something basic is worn out
In the listingNeeds renovationSee what needs doing and what each job costs
Asking price is very low: €56,000 (≈€97/m²) but the building is in very poor condition and needs major recovery. At an estimated €700/m² for renovation the total becomes €459,200 (≈€797/m²) versus the regional baseline of €425/m², so after works this is not a bargain despite the low purchase price.
More on the house and the area
A plain mid‑century six‑storey apartment block set in overgrown grounds — not a picturesque Tuscan cottage. The building is intact but in very poor condition, so this is a renovation project priced for volume rather than a move‑in dream home.
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€114,000 – €202,000
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.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.

- Large residential block in very poor maintenance — significant renovation and likely structural/finish work required.
- Photos show only exterior; interior condition, utilities and any legal/urban constraints are unknown and must be verified.
- Sold as a compendio of six apartments (not a single private villa) — conversion to a single-family dream home would be complex and bureaucratic.
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.
