What is special about the property market in Somsdorf?

The size. With 633 residents and 199 residential buildings, Somsdorf is the smallest Freital district with a market page of its own, and at 66.2 percent pre-war share one of the oldest. Owner-occupancy stands at 69.2 percent, well above the town figure of 56.9. The Freital price zone applies, at €2,400 to €3,100 per square metre for houses.

Location profile: small, old, owner-dominated

Freital lies 8.1 kilometres south-west of central Dresden in the valley of the Weißeritz. Somsdorf sits in the south-western part of the town area, above Hainsberg.

At 3.2 people per residential building the structure is a pure one- and two-family house location. Owner-occupancy of 69.2 percent sits well above the Freital town figure of 56.9 percent.

Vacancy amounts to 2.9 percent, just below the town figure of 3.1 percent. Across 199 residential buildings that corresponds to six empty buildings in arithmetic terms.

What I observe here: Somsdorf combines the structure of a village with the price level of a town. Two in three properties are pre-war, yet the sale takes place in the Freital price zone.

633 residents and 199 residential buildings. By comparison, Potschappel counts 5,504 residents and 1,078 residential buildings, Pesterwitz 3,181 and 888, Weißig 888 and 271. Somsdorf is therefore the smallest of the twelve Freital districts with a market page of their own. There are 3.2 people to each residential building, so a pure one- and two-family house structure.
How old is the building stock in Somsdorf?
66.2 percent of residential buildings date from before 1949, considerably more than the Freital town figure of 49.5 percent. That places Somsdorf fourth, behind Schweinsdorf at 78.4, Potschappel at 71.4 and Hainsberg at 69.2 percent. Two in three properties are therefore pre-war fabric, and the state of renovation decides the price.
What is a house in Somsdorf worth?
The Freital price zone applies: €2,400 to €3,100 per square metre for houses, €1,900 to €2,600 for apartments and €150 to €260 for building plots. There is no separate range for a district with 199 residential buildings. With two in three properties pre-war, the state of renovation decides the position.
How do you sell a house in Somsdorf?
Through registered prospective buyers and a solid condition survey. With 199 residential buildings and 2.9 percent vacancy, little reaches the market in a year, so demand arises before supply. Because at the same time two in three properties date from before 1949, roof, façade and damp decide the price achievable.
