Starting price and market value in Bologna
The starting price of an auction almost never matches the market value.

How to bid in auctions in the province of Bologna
The sale is almost always entrusted to a sale delegate (professionista delegato) and takes place online, on the platform of the operator (gestore) named in the notice. In real-estate enforcement proceedings (esecuzioni immobiliari) one can bid up to a quarter below the starting price under article 571 of the Code of Civil Procedure (c.p.c.): that is the minimum bid (offerta minima), the price below which you cannot bid. In insolvency proceedings (procedure concorsuali) and tax-collection sales (vendite esattoriali) the notice of sale applies, and the minimum bid often equals the starting price. In enforcement proceedings the bid deposit (cauzione) is at least 10% of the price offered, and the balance must be paid by the deadline in the notice, generally no later than 120 days. The court order (ordinanza) sets the bid deposit rules, whether paper offers are allowed, the minimum bid increment (rilancio minimo) and the deadline for paying the balance of the price of each proceeding, and they are stated in the notice of sale.
