This is a judicial auction (ASTA) so purchase carries auction-specific legal risk; listed at €50,001 (€217/m²) vs regional baseline €230/m². The ad also describes the building as “in corso di costruzione” while condition is marked Habitable, a contradictory claim.
More on the house and the area
Large, sensible villa with tiled floors, installed doors/windows and a staircase — clearly livable but not fully finished. Plain modern interiors and a small private outdoor area make this a practical bargain for someone prepared to complete the finishes and manage an auction purchase.
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€15,000 – €26,000
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.
- Interior is basic and partially unfinished (bathroom/finishes appear incomplete).
- No scenic views or historic character — suburban setting on a typical street.
- Property is an auction lot — verify legal/title and access with a specialist before bidding.
- Photos show the house is habitable but will need light-to-medium finishing to be fully comfortable.
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.
