What does an agent add when selling in Tharandt?
Why a local agent makes the difference in Tharandt
The first reason is that split. Kurort Hartha comes to 513 residential buildings, the main village to 412. More important still are the key figures: 36.1 against 71.5 percent pre-war share, 80.8 against 53.8 percent owner-occupancy, 2.9 against 9.0 percent vacancy. A valuation portal works with the municipal average of 50.0 percent pre-war share and is therefore off the mark for both.
The second reason is forest access. For part of the Dresden buyer pool it is the reason to buy, and it appears in hardly any set of particulars with concrete walking times.
The third reason is the fabric in the main village. At 71.5 percent pre-war share and on the valley slopes, roof, damp and building services are the points buyers calculate.
Market situation in Tharandt
Tharandt counts 1,369 residential buildings and 2,485 private households, with owner-occupancy at 74.6 percent. The price zone reaches €2,200 to €2,900 per square metre for houses, €1,800 to €2,500 for apartments and €130 to €240 for building plots; apartment buildings sit at twelve to fifteen times the annual rent.
Vacancy across the municipality stands at 4.8 percent, in Fördergersdorf at 1.7 and in Kurort Hartha at 2.9 percent. The pre-war share is 50.0 percent.
The counterintuitive part is the role of the main village. It gives the municipality its name and is at the same time its weakest sub-market: highest vacancy, lowest owner-occupancy, oldest stock.
Hands-on assessment
“When selling an apartment (Eigentumswohnung) in Dresden, I frequently see owners underestimate the achievable price by 8–15%. The difference almost always lies in the marketing strategy — not in the property itself.”
— Calvin Linke, estate agent (Immobilienmakler) Dresden
