See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction listing (Tribunale: Catania), so it cannot be treated as a normal sale. Price €40,183 for 130 m²; with a habitable-level refit ~€200/m² the effective cost is ≈€66,183 (~€509/m²).
More on the house and the area
Bright, fully finished modern interiors and a sleek bathroom give this property real move-in appeal, and the building/exterior photos look attractive. At about €40k for 130 m² and only ~1 km from the sea this is a striking bargain — but verify the real photos and auction/legal details before committing.
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€9,000 – €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.
- Photos in the listing are marked as indicative and may not be the actual rooms — verify real photos and planimetry.
- This is an auction property (procedural/legal risks and extra costs) — factor in legal/transfer fees and possible outstanding charges.
- Key layout details (number of bedrooms/bathrooms) and building/energy info are missing — confirm before bidding.
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.
