Real estate: More prefabricated houses approved - especially popular in the southwest
Many builders are opting for houses with prefabricated parts from the factory. Their market share is growing. The houses made of prefabricated parts are particularly popular in southern Germany.
In Germany, 26.7% of newly approved single and two-family homes in the first half of the year were prefabricated houses. The Bundesverband Deutscher Fertigbau reported 7,432 approvals for prefabricated homes out of 27,838 total approvals. The prefabricated housing market share increased from 26.2% in the same period last year. Prefabricated homes are gaining popularity in large cities such as Augsburg, Hannover, Köln, and Berlin, not just in rural areas. The highest approval rate for prefabricated homes was in Baden-Württemberg at 44.7%.
