Commission-free real estate directly from the owner in Falkensee

Single-family homes in Falkensee: affordable and commission-free

The small town of Falkensee, located in Brandenburg directly on the border to Berlin, is a young town: It was only founded in 1923 by merging the two villages of Falkenhagen and Seegefeld, and it was not until 1961 that the town was granted municipal law. In addition to the two original districts, to which the name Falkensee goes back, four more villages have been added to the town: the former villa colonies of Finkenkrug and Waldheim, Falkenhöh and Falkenhain. Thanks to its location in the middle of the Berlin/Brandenburg metropolitan region, the city of Falkensee has undergone a tumultuous development in recent decades, doubling its population since the year of reunification in 1990. Today, over 40,000 people live in the town in the Havelland district.

Paradise for young families

There are many reasons for Falkensee's rapid growth: The town has good transport links to the neighboring major cities of Berlin and Potsdam, has an excellent infrastructure that makes it particularly attractive to young families, and offers a high quality of life with its numerous idyllic cycling and hiking trails, lakes and sites of historical interest. No less than nine schools, 22 daycare centers, an open-air swimming pool, a movie theater and a city library make the town a sought-after refuge just outside the gates of the big city of Berlin, especially for families with children. The old town of Spandau can be reached in ten minutes by car from Falkensee, and it takes 30 minutes to get to the center of Berlin. It is even faster by train: the Falkensee train station and the two stops Seegefeld and Finkenkrug offer direct train connections to Berlin. In addition to the diverse and attractive job market of the capital, Falkensee also has its own attractive job opportunities to offer:Inparticular, the Herlitz production facility in Seegefeld should be mentioned here, and other commercial enterprises have settled in the vicinity.

Single-family homes - affordable and commission-free

Living in Falkensee means living in a single-family house with its own garden. Because the city with its past as a villa colony and garden city near Berlin has always been a retreat for families who want to live in the countryside, but do not want to do without the job opportunities and amenities of the big city. House and apartment seekers will find lower prices and a wider range of commission-free properties in Falkensee than in nearby Berlin. According to the real estate portal immobilienscout24.de, the average rental price in Falkensee is 7.60 euros per square meter, condominiums cost an average of 1,550 euros/square meter and houses 259,000 euros. Owner-occupied homes in particular are therefore much cheaper to buy in Falkensee than in Berlin itself - and quite a few of them are sold without an estate agent. House buyers in Falkensee save therefore doubly: Not only with the purchase price, but also by the brokerage-free sales. Conversely, sellers of real estate in Falkensee receive significantly more inquiries when they sell their property without an agent - because why should interested parties decide to pay an expensive agent's commission when comparable houses and plots of land are brokered commission-free in the neighborhood?
