Why this price is what it is

This is a judicial auction (price €12,452 for 117 m²); assuming ~€700/m² renovation (≈€81,900) gives an effective price ≈€94,350 or ≈€806/m² vs regional median €424/m². The listing provides no real photos and omits condition/energy data, and being an auction adds legal and appraisal risk, so treat as a trap.

More on the house and the area
What the photos show

Bright, recently‑refurbished townhouse with a modern kitchen, tiled bathroom and a fireplace — appears move‑in ready and full of light. Set on a charming historic street with open distant views and an unbeatable auction price, but confirm the actual photos, condition and legal status before you bid.

Minimum to live in it350500/m²
€41,000 – €59,000

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€23,000 – €41,000

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.

What worries us about this house
  • This is a judicial-auction listing (sold as‑is) — legal/technical due diligence is essential.
  • The ad itself warns the photos may be indicative and not the actual property — confirm real images/condition before bidding.
  • Listing data is unclear on bathrooms/condition and utilities — verify services, title and cadastral situation.
  • No private garden/parking shown; expect a town-centre dwelling with limited outdoor space.

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 58/100

The cluster is on the Ionian side of the Catanzaro area, between low cultivated hills and the coastal plain of the Gulf of Squillace. The Sila range rises inland to the north, but the main mountain scenery is outside the immediate 15 km radius. The Ionian coast and the beaches of the Gulf of Squillace are about 8 km away. The nearest town of size is Catanzaro, which has the main provincial services, hospital, rail links and the regional administrative role. Squillace is nearby and the area is known for the archaeological park of ancient Skylletion at Roccelletta di Borgia and for olive groves and citrus on the coastal side.
