Do you need a reliable valuation for a property in the district of Pfaffenhofen an der Ilm? I prepare market value appraisals in accordance with § 194 BauGB and the requirements of the ImmoWertV, condensed appraisal reports for private use, as well as appraisals regarding remaining useful life, rental value, and mortgage lending value.
The district is located between Munich and Ingolstadt on the A9 motorway and the Nuremberg–Munich railway line. It is part of the Hallertau, the largest contiguous hop-growing region.
What is value-relevant here
Two reference markets. The southern municipalities align with Munich, while the northern ones align with Ingolstadt. Both influences vary in strength and cannot be adequately represented by a simple district average.
Hops cultivation. Courtyards with drying and storage buildings require a separate analysis of the value components and an assessment of the economic usability of the building stock.
Traffic situation. Proximity to the A9 motorway and railway line improves connectivity but simultaneously increases exposure to environmental impacts. Both aspects must be assessed on a location-specific basis.
Market structure
The basis for any valuation is the data from the competent expert committee (Gutachterausschuss). The Expert committee (Gutachterausschuss) of the district of Pfaffenhofen a.d.Ilm pursuant to Section 195 of the Building Code (BauGB) manages the purchase price register, derives standard land values from it, and publishes the real estate market report with transaction figures, price trends, and the required data — property yield rates, cost approach factors, and comparison factors. The standard land values can be viewed free of charge via the state's map service; the expert committee itself maintains the purchase price register and the real estate market report.
These data apply exclusively to the area of the respective committee. This is why a value cannot be derived from a neighboring district: a different purchase price database, a different property yield rate, and a different valuation date apply there. Relying on nationwide average values misses the mark entirely.
