Construction costs are currently skyrocketing

I took a look. It costs around 800 EUR/m² in Münster. So for 600m², 480,000 EUR. Then add a house on top, you're close to a million. At 4% interest...

That’s why building areas are popping up outside of Münster (Everswinkel, Telgte, Havixbeck, etc.) – all the way to Warendorf/Greven and even Dülmen (Münster is very well connected). In recent years, you could buy plots starting from 150 EUR/m² there and be in Münster within 20 minutes.

That’s why building areas are springing up outside of Münster (Everswinkel, Telgte, Havixbeck, etc.) — all the way to Warendorf/Greven and even Dülmen (Münster is excellently connected). In recent years, you could buy plots of land there starting from €150/sqm and be in Münster within 20 minutes.

Thanks to the A1, it’s very easy to get as far as Tecklenburg. etc. There, thanks to public transport, a car isn’t the only option. And Hamm -> Münster is 30 minutes by train (but you are from that area anyway).

And when I look at something cute like Rinkerode or Drensteinfurt: you are in Münster city center within 10/15 minutes. You also have relatively long train/bus connections on weekends & a land value that is really relaxed.

Where do you get that knowledge from? By the way, I find the BRW in Münster pretty affordable.

Are you orienting yourself on BORIS? Because then I see BRWs in Münster city in the Kreuzviertel starting at €2,500 and up.

I heard a report about this yesterday. Among other things, settlement structures are supposed to be created that are based on garden cities. This can be a good concept especially for young families and older people.

Garden cities of the past were spacious – here the densities of the Berlin tenement buildings of the past are being dreamed of. With a whole lot of active / activist neighborhood. This is quite typical for city councils full of students and retirees. They want the maximum of everything (even with mutually exclusive goals) and are surprised in the end by the costs and the fiasco. Because the main problem is precisely the adherence to the idiotic goal of "land conservation" for at least 10 years, which is carried around like a monstrance. And then suddenly there are several hundred thousand apartments missing. The issue should be incorporation &/ large-scale + overarching urban development.

That is why building areas are popping up outside of Münster (Everswinkel, Telgte, Havixbeck, etc.) – all the way to Warendorf/Greven and even Dülmen (Münster is very well connected). In recent years, you could buy plots from €150 per sqm and be in Münster within 20 minutes.

Neither in Dülmen, Havixbeck, Billerbeck, Senden, Nottuln, Darup, Appelhülsen, Schapdetten, etc., are plots available for €150 per sqm, nor were they in recent years (unless you go back about 10 years or more). Unless I completely missed something in my observation. Rather, prices were about twice as high. Occasionally a bit to significantly (up to €500!) higher, but have somewhat normalized recently. I can speak from the search and buying experiences of my family and acquaintances in this area...

Regarding the Everswinkel and Telgte area, I can't say anything, maybe it was actually like that there. But who would want to hang dead over the fence there anyway ;)

And it continues in the municipality of Sauerlach

"Single-family houses are consciously avoided because they seal too much surface and are considered outdated."

And no one wanted to believe me that the old unsanitary grandma house would increase in value because you are still allowed to build a single-family house there ^^

And it continues in the municipality of Sauerlach "Detached single-family houses are deliberately avoided because they seal too much area and are considered no longer contemporary." And no one wanted to believe me that the old unrenovated granny house will increase in value because you can still build a single-family house there ^^

The Süddeutsche is also getting worse and worse in terms of text quality. Detached single-family houses are being avoided. Semi-detached houses and terraced houses will continue to be planned.
