Fürstenwalde (Spree) as an investment location for real estate
Commuter location on the RE1 and strong connection to the capital
Fürstenwalde (Spree) benefits from the efficient east-west axis RE1 with dense frequencies and capacity expansion: platforms along the line will be successively extended for eight-car trains by 2025-2028, so that more seats and more stable connections are available - a plus for commuter attractiveness and rentability in micro-locations close to the station. Since the end of 2022, the RE1 has been running with 6- and 8-car trains at frequent intervals, which has noticeably improved accessibility in the direction of Berlin/Potsdam. Fürstenwalde is also connected to the capital region via the A12 and the BER corridor and benefits indirectly from structural impulses in the east of Berlin.
Micro-location advantages, urban development and project pipeline
The city has been investing in urban quality and neighbourhood development for years: flagship projects such as "Drehscheibe Bahnhof" link mobility, city access and public transport connections, while "Socially Integrative City" programs in Fürstenwalde-Nord, among others, strengthen neighbourhood management, meeting spaces and everyday quality - good for stable tenant loyalty and portfolio strategies. New neighborhood developments such as the Spreevorstadt on Leistikowstrasse (approx. 11 hectares) and a sustainable residential district south of Lange Strasse with a school component underline the pipeline and open up medium-term potential for modern, energy-efficient residential products in locations close to the city. Cultural and inner city impulses around the cathedral, city museum and renovated town hall increase visibility and frequency in the core area - a location plus for residential first floor uses and mixed uses.
Strategies from core to value-add with ESG levers
Core investments focus on properties close to city centers and train stations with a short route logic and a broad tenant base, supported by RE1 cycles and municipal urban development measures. Value-add potential lies in energy modernization, windows/insulation, efficient heating and PV, especially in old and mixed locations close to development axes, which improves energy parameters and exit prospects. The combination of the commuter-strong RE1 axis, ongoing infrastructure capacity increase until 2028 and visible district pipeline creates a balanced risk/reward profile with good re-letting prospects and medium-term value appreciation potential in Fürstenwalde (Spree).
