What it really costs
Can you move in?
Livable, but something basic is worn out

See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction (asta), which carries special purchase risks and forces a low score. Price €99,000 for 253 m²; assuming habitable-level works (~€200/m² → €50,600) gives effective €149,600 or ~€591/m², above the local median €435/m².
More on the house and the area
A large two‑storey house with a substantial 927 m² yard and a 44 m² garage — physically habitable but very tired and roughly finished inside. Close to the coast (~1 km) yet in a suburban/industrial pocket rather than a picture‑perfect location; good value for the size but expect renovation and auction‑process work before moving in.
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€17,000 – €28,000
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.
- Worn, dated interiors and finishes — cosmetic and some repairs likely needed
- Suburban/industrial setting with no scenic sea/mountain views visible
- Sale by judicial auction — added legal/bureaucratic steps and potential risks
- Photos in listing may not exactly match the unit or omit details (e.g. bathrooms)
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.
