Key data on the property market in Bremen 2024/2025
Real Estate Market at a Turning Point!
In 2025, the first signs of a stable recovery are emerging across almost all market segments in the Hanseatic city. Bremen serves as a prime example for many medium-sized cities in Germany: the demands on land use are increasing. Consumer behavior is changing. Construction and financing costs are rising. A wide range of challenges, in other words—challenges that Bremen faces with a mix of perseverance, innovative strength, and an urban drive for design.
