See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial-auction listing and the property must be regularized catastally with non-real photos provided, so buy with caution. Estimated renovation ~€700/m² (€63,700 total) makes the effective price ≈€99,700 (~€1,095/m²), well above the regional baseline of €466/m².
More on the house and the area
The photos show clean, modern interiors with a bright living/kitchen, a small balcony and a neat bathroom — very liveable if accurate. However the lot is an auction property that requires renovation and cadastral regularisation, so it’s a bargain project rather than a turnkey 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€18,000 – €32,000
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.

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 35/100This is the flat central Po plain, with fields, drainage canals and scattered settlements around the old market town pattern of the Bolognese lowlands. The Panaro runs a few kilometres to the west and the area lies between the plain-side towns of San Giovanni in Persiceto and Cento; for a wider range of services, Bologna is the nearest major city. The area is known for intensive agriculture and food production typical of the Emilian plain.
