Amselweg 14B
The last newbuild house in the Potsdam corridor.
124.5 m² of A+ newbuild quality. €100,000 KfW funding block. 5% degressive AfA. A real lettings track-record. Q2 2026 handover. This is the editorial investment case — the macro thesis, the asset, and the math.
Why Potsdam.
Why now. Why this corridor.
Before the unit. Before the math. Read the macro thesis. Potsdam is the second-strongest housing market in eastern Germany, structurally undersupplied, and Marquardt sits inside the Potsdam/Berlin functional corridor on the RB21 line. The combination is what makes the price defensible.
Potsdam as a core market
Brandenburg's capital, seat of government, science city, Babelsberg media cluster. Among Germany's strongest housing markets by net migration, income and scarcity. Demand is structural — not cycle-dependent.
Marquardt's green micro-market
Space, garden character, water proximity, family-grade housing. Central Potsdam cannot deliver this €/m² at this product spec. Marquardt offers the lifestyle that priced-out Berliners are migrating to.
RB21 + Friedrichspark upside
RB21 anchors functional access to Potsdam and Berlin. The Friedrichspark / Marquardt commercial development is an upside catalyst — not a base case. The thesis works without it.
The base case is Potsdam strength + green living quality.
The upside case is the Friedrichspark catalyst.
Marquardt isn't a village trade. It's a corridor trade. The product/quality/€ ratio cannot be re-issued at central Potsdam pricing.
One unit left.

The hard numbers
- Newbuild 2026 · QNG-eligible
- Energy class A+ · heat pump
- Designer kitchen included (€16k)
- High-spec bathrooms + guest WC
- Family-grade plan · 124.5 m²
- Private garden / outdoor area
A 50‑m² rental compresses back to investors.
A 125‑m² newbuild house also fits a family.
Two exit markets, not one
Owner-occupiers don't price by yield. They price by space, garden, energy, schools. That second buyer can re-rate the asset.
Structural tax architecture
5% degressive AfA + €100k KfW + interest deductibility = the tail of the math, not the headline of the rent.
Newbuild risk filter
A+ envelope and heat pump. No fossil-heating regulation hit, no refurb-shock capex, best lettability vs. older stock.
The questions every
investor asks.
We answer them here, not after you've already decided.
The longer construction timeline is already reflected in the purchase price — this property is priced below what comparable finished quality would cost today. And you don't pay the full purchase price immediately. Payments follow construction progress under MABV. By the time notary appointment, land register processing and ownership transfer are complete, several months have passed regardless. Interest only accrues on amounts actually disbursed — not on the full purchase price from day one.
Construction-period interest is real and we won't pretend otherwise. But it applies only to disbursed amounts — not the full purchase price. For investors with rental intent, these costs are tax-relevant as Werbungskosten via Anlage V. The key is documenting rental intention in the purchase contract from day one, which we handle as standard. Your Steuerberater can then work with this directly.
Grimm Holding is not dependent on individual unit sales to continue building. The developer holds sufficient equity to complete the project regardless of how many units are sold. Unsold units go into Grimm's own rental portfolio — this is standard practice across their 35-year track record. You are not buying into a project that only continues if enough buyers pay in.
You can. But today you choose your floor, your orientation, your layout, your position within the building. In six months you choose from what remains. Over a 10-year hold, the right unit — better floor, better aspect, better rentability — matters far more than saving a small amount of construction-period interest. If you wait over €2,000–3,000 in interest savings, you may end up with a significantly less rentable unit.
