See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction. Price €24,750 plus estimated €700/m² renovation (199 m²) yields ~€164,050 total (~€825/m²) versus the Marche baseline ~€295/m², so auction process and high renovation costs make this risky.
More on the house and the area
Photos show clean, modern, move-in-ready interiors and a high-quality bathroom, but the only exterior shot is an uninspiring courtyard of a block with no view. The listing text describes a rural farmhouse with lots of land being sold at auction — you must verify documents and the real condition/location before you get excited.
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€39,000 – €70,000
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.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.

- Property is an auction lot — check legal status and any liens before bidding
- Exterior photo shows a dense apartment block / no rural or scenic views despite 'farmhouse' description
- Gallery and written description seem inconsistent (farmhouse + land vs. urban-looking photos) — verify which images/parts correspond to the actual lot
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.
