Property valuer for Bautzen, Radeberg and Kamenz – personal valuation

Jens Krüger, property valuation expert

Bautzen, Radeberg or Kamenz: very different markets lie close together in this district. I value the specific property rather than working with averages, and clarify with you in advance which valuation fits.

Jens Krüger · Let’s talk: +49 351 795 24 61

Full market value reports, short-form valuations and pre-purchase consultations for houses, flats, land, apartment buildings and commercial and industrial property in the Bautzen district – handled personally by Jens Krüger, Dipl.-Wirtsch.-Ing. (FH), with more than 20 years of valuation practice and over 700 valuation instructions.

For resold flats built from 1991 onwards, the valuation committee gives averages of €1,596/m² in Radeberg and €1,081/m² in Hoyerswerda. Whether near Dresden or in the north of the district: what matters is the sub-market and the property, not the district average.

Bautzen property market: fewer contracts than in 2022/2023, but higher transaction volume again

In 2024/2025, 5,973 purchase contracts were recorded – around 10% fewer than in 2022/2023. Transaction volume, on the other hand, rose by around 5% to about €784m. In 2025, 3,029 transactions and a transaction volume of €444.93m were registered. After the marked slump in 2023, this shows a recovery, without the market returning to the activity level of 2021.

The valuation committee also points out that adverse trends in demand can hit simple locations in particular. In its assessment, economical unit and floor sizes and designs with efficient operating costs tend to hold up in the market; oversized properties with high operating costs may be more affected by market corrections.

Bautzen, Radeberg, Hoyerswerda, Kamenz and Bischofswerda

The district comprises 57 towns and municipalities covering around 2,396 km². In 2025, 226 transactions were registered in Bautzen, 205 in Radeberg, 181 in Hoyerswerda, 132 in Kamenz and 65 in Bischofswerda. Ottendorf-Okrilla with 129, Großröhrsdorf with 119 and Lohsa with 103 transactions also form relevant local markets.

The market report expressly describes the geographical distribution as uneven: there are many transactions in Bautzen and around Dresden, while rural municipalities often have few sales. Radeberg therefore needs to be considered separately as a market close to Dresden; Hoyerswerda and the north of the district, on the other hand, are more strongly shaped by the structural change in Lusatia and the emerging lake district.

House prices: location, remaining useful life and land value level interact

The valuation committee deliberately does not publish a simple house price for the whole district. For a remaining useful life of up to 40 years, average prices per m² of living area range from €1,181 to €2,323/m², depending on the standard land value level. For remaining useful lives of 41 years or more, they range from €1,863 to €3,676/m².

The age of the building also makes a big difference. For houses built between 1900 and 1944, the published averages range from €1,027 to €2,102/m², depending on remaining useful life and land value level. For 2011–2020, €2,366 and €3,455/m² are reported. These figures are not a price list; they show how strongly location, remaining economic life, age and state of modernisation interact.

Flats: Radeberg and Bautzen show the local differentiation

In 2025, 422 transactions involving flats and commercial units with a transaction volume of €54.71m were registered. For flats, there were 340 resales averaging €1,111/m²; 59 new-build first sales averaged €4,894/m².

For resales of buildings up to 1990 – excluding prefabricated-panel and block buildings – the average was €1,298/m² in Bautzen and €1,809/m² in Radeberg. For buildings from 1991 onwards, the report gives €1,305/m² in Bautzen, €1,596/m² in Radeberg, €1,086/m² in Kamenz and €1,081/m² in Hoyerswerda.

Particularly interesting are 89 so-called quick resales in 2024/2025: flats were resold within less than a year without any known refurbishment or renewal, at considerable mark-ups. The average price was €1,215/m² on purchase and €2,073/m² on resale. The valuation committee excluded these cases from its valuation-relevant derivations. This shows why individual purchase or asking prices cannot be used as comparables without being checked.

Standard land values: a single district figure would be far too crude

According to the valuation committee, the land price index for residential land is expressly to be understood only as an average for the whole district. For standard land value levels up to €30/m², the index rose from 100 in 2015 to 185 in 2025, and to 178 for higher levels. For the specific valuation, the valuation committee itself recommends examining the trend in standard land values in the area concerned.

In addition, from a standard land value level of €30/m², an effect of plot size on the relative purchase price was demonstrated. A standard land value therefore cannot simply be multiplied by the plot area. It relates to a defined reference plot; differences in the specific plot have to be assessed professionally.

Upper Lusatian half-timbered houses, structural change in Lusatia and different landscapes

The building and settlement structure is strongly shaped by historic buildings. The report particularly highlights the regionally typical Umgebindehaus construction (a traditional timber-frame house type of Upper Lusatia). For 2024/2025, only four unrefurbished Umgebinde and half-timbered houses could be analysed statistically – a good example of why special properties should not be valued using blanket market averages.

Economically, the district ranges from rail vehicle manufacturing in Bautzen and battery production in Kamenz to new research and production projects in the north of the district. At the same time, the coal phase-out is changing Lusatia. Geographically, the district extends from Dresden’s sphere of influence through the Upper Lusatian countryside and uplands to the heath and pond landscape and the former mining landscapes in the north. These differences are part of placing a property in the market, but never justify blanket premiums or discounts.

511 house sales analysed – and still no market value at the push of a button

For detached and two-family houses, the valuation committee derived a property guide value (Immobilienrichtwert) from 511 re-evaluated transactions from 2022 to 2025. The regression model takes into account plot size, standard land value, living area, basement, standard of fittings, remaining economic life and contract year, and achieves an adjusted coefficient of determination of around 0.77.

Data basis511 sales

The valuation committee expressly states that the property guide value does not correspond to the market value under § 194 BauGB. Special property-specific characteristics, outbuildings, construction defects and building damage, and rights and encumbrances must also be taken into account. This is precisely where the line runs between good market orientation and a property-specific market valuation.

What does this market data mean for your property?

Radeberg and the Dresden area differ from Hoyerswerda and the north of the district. Historic Umgebinde houses require a different approach from standardised modern detached houses. For flats, conventional apartment buildings, prefabricated-panel and block buildings and new builds must be kept separate. For land, the specific standard land value zone also comes into play.

For the market value of a specific property, the appropriate market data is therefore selected first, and then micro-location, plot, year of construction, structural condition, modernisation, fittings, floor areas, letting and rights and encumbrances are taken into account.

Property valuer for Bautzen, Radeberg, Kamenz, Bischofswerda and Hoyerswerda

From my Dresden office, I value property throughout the Bautzen district – in Radeberg, Ottendorf-Okrilla and Großröhrsdorf near Dresden as well as in Bautzen, Bischofswerda and Kamenz, up to Hoyerswerda and Lohsa in the north. As an expert, I also work throughout Saxony, for example in Dresden, Radebeul, Freital, Pirna and Meissen, in Freiberg and Döbeln, and in Chemnitz and Leipzig.

Radeberg needs to be considered separately as a market close to Dresden, while Hoyerswerda and the north of the district are more strongly shaped by the structural change in Lusatia. In addition, there are regionally typical special properties such as Umgebinde houses, for which blanket market averages are not enough.

Frequently asked questions

How is an Umgebinde house in the Bautzen district valued?

Individually and specifically for the property. For 2024/2025, the valuation committee was only able to analyse four unrefurbished Umgebinde and half-timbered houses statistically. With so few cases, blanket market averages do not hold up – construction, condition and location have to be recorded and assessed specifically during the site inspection.

Does the valuation committee’s property guide value replace a report?

No. The property guide value for detached and two-family houses is based on 511 re-evaluated transactions from 2022 to 2025. The valuation committee itself states that it does not correspond to the market value under § 194 BauGB – outbuildings, construction defects and building damage, and rights and encumbrances must also be taken into account.

Is the standard land value already the value of my plot?

No. The standard land value is an average location value for a model plot within a standard land value zone. The specific plot may differ from it.

Do you also value apartment buildings and commercial property?

Yes. Besides residential property, I value apartment buildings, mixed-use buildings and commercial, production and industrial property.

Which valuation is right for my case?

That depends on the occasion, the type of property and the depth required. Before you instruct me, we clarify together which scope suits the purpose.

Regional property markets in Saxony

The property markets in Saxony differ considerably. The following market pages are therefore organised according to the responsible valuation committees and follow a consistent structure.

Standard land values and property market data in Saxony

The locally responsible valuation committees keep purchase price collections, determine standard land values and derive other data required for valuation.

A standard land value is not the market value of a specific plot. It relates to a model reference plot within a zone. Differing plot characteristics and the specific market situation have to be examined in the valuation.
