This is a judicial auction (Tribunale), which is a legal/transactional red flag. Assuming €700/m² renovation yields an effective price ≈ €162,425 (≈€907/m²) vs local median €406/m²; the ad gives no real photos or condition details.
More on the house and the area
The photos show bright, recently finished interiors with quality flooring, modern bathroom finishes and a balcony — a large, clearly usable apartment that feels move‑in ready. However the building exterior is uninspiring and the sale is via auction with disclaimer that images may not be of the actual unit, so confirm condition and legal status before proceeding.
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€35,000 – €63,000
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.
- Listing is an auction (Tribunale) — legal and administrative complexities and fees likely.
- The ad explicitly states the photos are indicative and may not represent the real property — verify actual images/planimetry before bidding.
- No clear private garden/land shown; exterior is a plain apartment block rather than a scenic setting.
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.
