How is the Reick district developing?

Reick: location and character

Reick sits in the south-east of Dresden, directly north of Prohlis and west of Seidnitz. The postcode 01237 links several settlement types: GDR-era prefab buildings meet single-family-house estates and allotment-garden areas. This mixed picture makes Reick more interesting than the pure prefab character of central Prohlis.

The suburban rail connects Reick with the city centre in about 15–20 minutes. Local supply is solid, if not outstanding. The streets feel quieter than in Prohlis, the settlement structure more loosely arranged.

What sets Reick apart: the share of single-family houses. In the edge areas towards the green belt there are genuine houses with gardens — that attracts a different buyer group than the pure prefab areas. Allotments and garden plots shape the atmosphere of the outer streets.

Reick is better than its reputation, but no up-and-coming quarter. The social structure is more stable than in Prohlis, the degree of social mix higher. Anyone wanting to buy cheaply in Dresden and happy with allotment-garden neighbours ends up here.

Market data: prices in Reick

Reick is clearly priced above Prohlis but below Seidnitz:

  • Condominiums: 1,400–1,900 €/sqm
  • Single-family houses: 1,700–2,500 €/sqm
  • Plots: 100–175 €/sqm
  • Gross rental yield, condominiums: 6–8 % possible
  • Typical flat sizes: 50–85 sqm

House prices reflect the broader buyer base — families looking for a garden and quiet drive house prices up proportionally more than flat prices. Prefab flats at the lower end, renovated houses at the upper end of the range.

Typical properties in Reick

The supply splits into two segments: prefab condominiums (50–75 sqm, 2–3 rooms) in the more central areas and houses (100–160 sqm of living space, plots of 300–600 sqm) on the quieter residential streets.

The condominiums are predominantly GDR stock, some with façade renovation and modernised heating systems, rarely with a full gut renovation. The house stock dates from the 1960s to 1990s, with condition varying widely — from renovation projects to well-kept homes.

Listed building fabric is practically absent. New builds are rare because land is limited.

Who buys in Reick?

Price-conscious owner-occupiers: the largest share. Families and couples wanting to buy in Dresden but without the budget for premium locations consider Reick as an alternative. The share of single-family houses is particularly interesting for this group.

Buy-to-let investors: similar to Prohlis, but with slightly different yield expectations. A 6–8 % gross rental yield is realistic in Reick — enough for smaller yield portfolios.

Families interested in a garden: the proximity to allotments and houses makes Reick more attractive to families than central Prohlis. Anyone wanting a garden at affordable prices looks here.

Price trend

Reick has developed more stably than Prohlis because the share of single-family houses brings a second buyer group and the social structure is more homogeneous. Moderate price rises until 2022, consolidation at the current level since.

No significant upward pressure is to be expected. Reick does not benefit from gentrification effects and lies too far from Dresden's trendy urban fabric. A stable level, with no upside fantasy.

Frequently asked questions

Is Reick growing or shrinking?
Reick is growing: from around 5,400 residents (2015) to 5,700 (2025), with a forecast of roughly 5,700 by 2035 (+0.4 %). That makes Reick one of Dresden's growing areas. (Source: 2025 population forecast of the City of Dresden)
Who buys property in Reick?
Mainly price-conscious owner-occupiers who want to get a foothold in Dresden without stretching their budget. Alongside them, investors aiming for yields of 6–8 %. Families also come for the share of single-family houses and the allotment gardens.
How are prices developing in Reick?
Reick has developed more stably than Prohlis because the share of single-family houses and the quieter residential streets appeal to a broader buyer group. Moderate rises until 2022, stabilisation since. No dramatic upward spikes are to be expected.
How long does a sale take in Reick?
At a market-appropriate price, condominiums in Reick sell within 8–14 weeks. Houses take a little longer because the target group is smaller. Important: set the right asking price, because Reick is not a sought-after market.
Is it worth selling in Reick in 2026?
Yes, if the price expectation matches the market. Reick is not Prohlis, but it is not Striesen either — those who accept that find buyers. The market is small enough that unrealistic price ideas lead to long periods on the market.
