1 euro houses in 2026: where they really work, what they really cost
26 programmes in 8 countries, 90 Italian towns that have ever run one. Every row carries a verification date and the municipality's own link, because most pages on this topic still repeat 2019.
The real price: €68,500 to €210,000 for an 80 m² house
€1 is the lot price. Then comes a deposit or bank guarantee to the municipality of €2,000–€5,000, notary and taxes €2,500–€5,000, renovation at €800–2500 per m², and a works deadline of up to three years. Miss the deadline and the deposit stays with the town.
Where the numbers work
Model: 80 m² lot, renovation €1000/m², exit at the town's average asking price × 1.5 (a renovated house sells at the top of the range). Fewer than ten listings in a town means there is no market to sell into, whatever the price says.

How the purchase works
- Бандо. Найти действующий bando на сайте коммуны, не у посредника. Форма: заявка, аукцион от €1 или manifestazione di interesse. (€0 · дни)
- Codice fiscale. Итальянский налоговый номер: консульство или Agenzia delle Entrate. Без него нельзя подписать ничего. (€0 · 1-3 недели)
- Осмотр и геометра. Выезд, обмер, оценка состояния крыши, перекрытий, проводки. Смета ремонта до подачи, а не после. (€300-800 · 1-2 недели)
- Заявка и кауция. Подача, при аукционе ставка. Победа = кауция или банковская гарантия в пользу коммуны. (€2 000-5 000 (возвратно) · 1-3 месяца)
- Нотариус. Atto di compravendita. Imposta di registro для нерезидента 9% от кадастровой стоимости (минимум €1 000), плюс нотариус. (€2 500-5 000 · 2-6 недель)
- Проект. SCIA или permesso di costruire через геометру/архитектора. Срок подачи проекта прописан в бандо, обычно 2-12 месяцев. (€2 000-6 000 · 1-4 месяца)
- Ремонт. Полная реконструкция: крыша, перекрытия, инженерия. Срок работ почти везде до 3 лет, иначе кауция сгорает. Бонусы на реставрацию к 2026 сокращены, на них не рассчитывать. (€800-2 500/м² · 6-30 месяцев)
- Приемка. Agibilita, возврат кауции. Для краткосрочной аренды регистрация CIN. (€500-1 500 · 1-2 месяца)
- Выход. Продажа отремонтированного дома по верхней части местного диапазона или аренда. Ликвидность зависит от числа объявлений в коммуне, см. ярусы. (3-4% агенту при продаже · от 3 месяцев в A до лет в C)
