Standard land value Lübeck
The standard land value in Lübeck provides information on the average land price per square meter within certain standard land value zones. The expert committees in Schleswig-Holstein publish the current figures every other year. The standard land value for Lübeck allows property sellers as well as prospective buyers to get an first impression of the land values in the various locations of the Hanseatic city. But what exactly does the standard land value say? Is it helpful in determining property prices for sale in Lübeck?

How to obtain the standard land value for your property in Flensburg
The standard land value is of central importance for property buyers and owners. It indicates how much a plot of land is worth and is also taken into account in property taxation. The standard land value is made up of various factors and differs from the market value of a property. If you would like to find out the standard land value for a plot of land in Flensburg, our real estate agents will support you with Know-how and experience.

Standard land value in Kiel
If you want to find out about land prices in the various locations in the city, the standard land value for Kiel is a good guide. The digital standard land value map shows the different standard land value zones can be viewed. This gives property sellers and prospective buyers an initial impression of the different land prices with the help of the standard land value in Kiel. As the standard land value always refers to a reference property of a certain size, the stated standard land value for another property must be converted accordingly.


Market value vs. sales price: what's the difference?
Before a property can be sold, you need to find out what its financial value is. This is where the market value comes into play: various methods can be used to determine the objective value of a property. The market value thus forms the basis for the selling price of a property and is based on the price that can be achieved in the ordinary course of business at the time of the determination, taking into account all relevant factors such as location, condition and building materials used. This value is determined without taking into account personal or unusual circumstances and takes into account legal circumstances and actual characteristics. In simple terms, the market value represents the most likely selling price.
