Since your main concern is the risk of expropriation (and not questions like whether your grandchildren will still be able to play under the big walnut tree with their children later on, which is actually subject to a greater risk with leasehold), just a brief thought in this regard: When in history have the vast majority of people been expropriated? After regime changes following revolutions, wars, etc. In these cases, you can forget about your "security" based on the currently valid legal system anyway. There is no absolute security. Never.

Good day,

I think that it basically doesn’t hurt to be a little more cautious and ask yourself 3 more questions rather than be lenient later on. That doesn’t mean that my property is going to be expropriated. I focused here on the questions I specifically asked in order to get advice on the questions I consider the most difficult to answer. Since obviously the majority of forum users don’t have such a big problem with this question, it could well be that this question has been given more weight than it is worth. Only this question was personally a kind of question that nobody could really answer.



Well, here again I could explain at length why I don’t want to take the risk of paying off a house and then having the market value x calculated, for which ideally a specialist would have to come who then wants 9% of the market value for his valuable services. Maybe a bit exaggerated? I’ll leave it like that anyway.

To me, it seems better to pay off a property that really belongs to me on day X and not have my grandchildren still pondering what now has to be done.

What kind of questions should I be asking? Things like location, connection, future infrastructure are things I would look at more closely in the respective exposé, I can’t discuss that here now. What I can discuss are fundamental legal questions and situations.

Even if I don’t have to answer such a personal question, I know what you’re getting at. If I had securities, I would have asked myself such questions before I ask the important questions about from whom I buy securities or stocks.

Thank you very much for this experience.

Yes, otherwise I wouldn’t have asked it. Your post also doesn’t make it clear to me why a (less important) question isn’t worth being asked. I never claimed that no more important question exists than the one I asked, or did I? Basically, I’m now wondering why my (alleged) fears and my place of upbringing are being attacked when a question is asked that can concern every person?

For example, I wouldn’t ask a pregnant mother why she’s afraid of miscarriage or premature birth when she’s getting information on these topics in the “expecting mothers forum.” The fact is, these things exist and someone like me would like to know more about them.

It also doesn’t help me if the answer is “Build and buy and don’t do anything at all.” To stay with the expecting mother example, that would be like saying “There are so many more important questions, if you’re worried ABOUT THAT, then don’t have kids at all, there are far more important questions like e.g. who is actually the father of the child etc. etc.”



Even though I find that untypical, I still find it valuable that this information was conveyed. Only in this way can you get a picture of reality. (although my attitude toward the topic of hereditary lease remains after this post).

I hope I was able to take some weight off the topic of expropriation.

Kind regards

No. And you can write as much as you want without really saying anything, you did not answer my legitimate question about where the irrational fear of being expropriated comes from. That is also an answer.

Regarding your mothers' forum: not everything that limps is a comparison.

Thanks, obviously there is not always a clear answer to every question, as I have also found here.

Whether the comparison limps is ultimately just your personal opinion, I think it conveyed well what I mean.

Best regards

I know enough examples from my personal environment where children/grandchildren had to seriously ponder how to proceed, even though the property belonged to grandma and was long since paid off. No one could buy out the other because the value (big city) was too high... It may be a "luxury problem," but what I want to say is this: One shouldn't worry too much about things in 60 years. I would immediately go for a 99-year leasehold; with remaining terms of 30-40 years, it's a different matter.
