The dream of owning your own home begins with the right plot of land - but prices for building land have risen significantly in recent years. In 2025, there will be significant regional differences. While there is hardly any affordable land available in many metropolitan areas, rural areas and peripheral locations offer attractive alternatives. But is it still worth buying?
City vs. country: where prices are rising
In major cities, prices for building plots remain high, although the extreme growth of recent years has slowed. Popular residential locations such as Munich, Frankfurt and Hamburg are experiencing stable but sideways development. In their surrounding areas, on the other hand, prices are continuing to rise noticeably as more and more developers are switching to well-connected alternatives.
Targeted use of regional price differences
If you are flexible and invest in medium-sized cities or rural regions, you can build much more cheaply. However, a good infrastructure is a prerequisite: transport links, schools, shopping facilities and medical care are crucial for value retention. Municipalities with subsidy programs or simplified building laws offer additional opportunities for those willing to build.
Supply is becoming scarce, building permits are stalling
The shortage of developed building land will continue to worsen. At the same time, higher interest rates, material costs and a shortage of skilled workers are causing a decline in building permits. For investors and buyers, this means that anyone who finds a well-located plot of land should examine the opportunity carefully and not hesitate too long.
Conclusion
Buying a building plot is still attractive - especially outside of urban centers. Those who keep an eye on location, development and development potential can benefit in the long term. A professional appraisal also protects against bad investments.
