The most expensive places in Germany

The most expensive real estate in Germany is located in the community of Kampen, on Lake Starnberg, as well as in Munich and Hamburg. ee24.com publishes 20 places in Germany where house prices are on the highest level.

The prices for apartments reach €35,000 per sq.m.

On the second place is Munich, where the Seven Tower skyscraper on Müllerstraße is the most expensive residential building in the city with a price tag of € 25,000 per sqm In the districts of Schwabing and Alt-Bogenhausen the prices for luxury housing rose by 30% for the year (prices are from €12,000 to €18,000 for a "square").

The rise in prices of elite housing by almost 50% in such areas of Frankfurt, as Nordend-West (€ 1,000 per sq.m.) shows that the instability in the financial markets does not affect the market of elite housing in this city.

The restoration project of Rhine promenade in the Old Town of Dusseldorf caused the rise in prices to €13,500, which is almost twice as much as in the surrounding areas.

But truly exclusive homes are twice or even three times more expensive than the average prices in the market. In addition to the unique location, the quality of real estate is defined as the most exclusive high-performance queries. Often, old houses are repaired and redesigned, and then are exposed to the market of high-end housing.

Of the total number of real estate more expensive than €750,000, by sold the agency Engel&Völkers in 2012, 39 % were apartments built after 2010, 27 % - apartments built in 2000-2009, and 21 % - apartments built in 1851-1919.

Demand for housing in Germany is growing, and developers are snapping up the remaining undeveloped areas like hotcakes. As a result, the new luxury buildings are built in places with a built-up. This happened in HafenCity in Hamburg, Rheinauhafen in Cologne and in Westhafen in Frankfurt.
