How to bid in auctions in Emilia-Romagna

As everywhere in Italy, anyone who wants to buy reads the notice of sale and the appraisal report (perizia) on the Portale delle Vendite Pubbliche, asks the court-appointed custodian (custode giudiziario) for a viewing, and submits the offer before the deadline. In real-estate enforcement proceedings the minimum bid is the starting price minus a quarter (art. 571 c.p.c.), and the bid deposit is at least 10% of the amount offered. In insolvency proceedings and tax-collection sales the notice of sale applies, and the minimum bid often equals the starting price. How the bid deposit is paid, whether paper offers are allowed and the minimum bid increment vary from one proceeding to another, and the court order sets them.
