Why this price is what it is

This is being sold at a judicial auction (RGE listing). At €21,331 (€129/m²) but with an estimated €700/m² renovation the effective price is ≈€830/m², well above the regional baseline of €435/m², so auction risk and missing condition data make this unsuitable for a straight buy.

More on the house and the area
What the photos show

Large, bright loft-style apartment with skylights, exposed brick feature and a very modern bathroom — it appears largely renovated and realistically habitable. The terrace looks onto an urban street rather than a view, and the sale is by auction so confirm the real photos and condition before committing.

Minimum to live in it€350–500/m²
€58,000 – €83,000

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.

€99,000 – €149,000

All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.

Our read of the photos, €700/m², falls in this band.

Full€1,200–1,500/m²
€198,000 – €248,000

Turnkey, facade and insulation included.

Materials only, work you may do yourself€33,000 – €58,000

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
  • Listing/images are labelled as indicative and may not match the actual unit.
  • Terrace faces the street/neighbouring building — no scenic sea or countryside view visible.
  • Property is sold at auction — expect legal/administrative steps and verify utilities, floorplan and actual condition before bidding.

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 55/100

The cluster is in the built-up area of Bagheria on the Tyrrhenian side east of Palermo, so the lived setting is a dense coastal town rather than open countryside. The Tyrrhenian coast is a few kilometres away at the Bagheria-Aspra shoreline, with short stretches of rocky coast and small coves around Capo Zafferano. Monte Catalfano rises immediately above the coast and is protected as the Monte Catalfano nature reserve. Palermo is the nearest city of size, with the full range of services, rail links and cultural sites.
