See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction listing (the ad explicitly advertises 'asta'), which is a legal-risk veto. Price €40,690 plus estimated €200/m² renovation (€25,400) yields an effective €66,090 or ≈€520/m², above the regional baseline €446/m², so it is not a clear bargain.
More on the house and the area
Some rooms (kitchen, bathroom, entry) look bright and recently updated, giving the place a fresh, liveable feel, while other rooms and the building exterior are tired and partly run-down. Overall it’s a solid, low‑cost home with character and clear renovation spots — a bargain for someone willing to do targeted work.
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€8,000 – €14,000
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.
- Mixed condition — some rooms look recently renovated while others are rundown and need repair
- Listing appears to be an auction property (legal/fees/time to clear)
- Ad notes images may be indicative and not the actual property photos
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.
