This is a judicial auction listing (Tribunale RGE/PVP), which is a legal-risk veto and treated as a trap. Listed €43,939; with a habitable renovation estimate €200/m² (total ≈€86,939) the effective ≈€404/m² versus Puglia baseline €701/m², but the ad states the images are not the real photos.
More on the house and the area
The photos show a high-quality, modern interior (elegant panelling, marble-look floors and a large fitted kitchen) that looks move-in ready. However this is an auction listing and the images may be illustrative only — confirm the real unit condition, number of bathrooms and condominium/auction details before you plan a purchase.
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€14,000 – €24,000
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 ad are stated as indicative/stock and may not show the actual apartment.
- Property is offered through a judicial auction (Tribunale) — buying requires special legal/auction procedures and carries additional risks.
- Facts list 0 bathrooms and limited energy/building data — verify the actual layout, functioning bathrooms and utilities, and condominium fees.
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.
