See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction lot listed at €7,730 but the description reports complete dilapidation, partially dangerous roof and no functioning systems. Estimated full restoration ≈ €1,100/m² → ~€81,400 (74 m²), so effective cost ≈ €89,130; auction status plus structural decay makes this a trap.
More on the house and the area
Solid old tufo construction and a small 300 m² plot give real potential, but the house is currently in significant disrepair and not move-in ready. This is a true bargain-for-a-project: best for someone prepared to budget for a full structural, roof and systems renovation.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€29,000 – €43,000
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.
- Property described as in 'completa fatiscenza' with parts of the roof and structure reported as partly dangerous
- No functioning electrical/plumbing systems, no heating and likely no bathroom—full systems replacement required
- Balconies and façade show spalling and significant plaster damage; structural reinforcement and roof work likely needed
- Small front garden/plot but property sits directly on a roadside with limited immediate views
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.
