- Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction listing (Tribunale / “VUOI ACQUISTARE QUESTO IMMOBILE ALL'ASTA?”), so it is flagged as an auction sale. At €69,750 plus ~€700/m² renovation (~€205,550 total) the effective ≈€1,059/m² versus the regional baseline of €417/m², implying heavy works and auction complexity make it unsuitable for a regular purchase.
More on the house and the area
The photos show bright, modernised rooms, attractive wood-effect floors, exposed beams and a handsome brick façade, so the place looks characterful and very livable. However the listing notes it needs renovation and the agent warns the images may be indicative, so expect renovation/verification work before you can move in.
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€38,000 – €68,000
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.

- Listing states the property "needs renovation" — real condition may require works despite staged photos.
- Advert says images are indicative and may not be the actual apartment photos — verify real images and planimetry before bidding.
- Property is offered at auction — expect legal/process complexity and do a title/lot check.
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.
