Hoyerswerda as an investment location for real estate
31k-32k population base and solid regional embedding
The city documents its population status as of 31.12.2024 in the quarterly report, whereby December 2024 has an additional 60 people with main and secondary residence - a resilient 31k base as a basis for conservative business cases in a compact medium-sized center. Grid-side key figures from the local utilities underpin the order of magnitude by showing a served population of 31,398 for the low-voltage grid as of December 31 - a practical indicator of the real demand in the city and its sub-areas. In the Saxon context, Hoyerswerda remains embedded in a viable regional structure, which is confirmed by the 2024 state update - relevant as an environmental factor for commuter links and supra-regional visibility.
Accessibility and public transport: city bus network, ZVON/VVO interface and regional corridors
City transport is operated by Verkehrsgesellschaft Hoyerswerda (VGH); route network and timetable documents show a structured network with valid annual timetables, e.g. for city bus route 2 (Lausitzer Platz-Bahnhof) in timetable year 2025 - a plus for corridor locations and short distances for re-letting. The ZVON provides a dedicated route network plan for Hoyerswerda city transport (as of 15.12.2024) and shows the fare interfaces: Recognition of ZVON, VVO and VBB fares per relation-a location advantage for living close to railroad stations and axes with regional connections. Regional bus corridors such as line 500 (Hoyerswerda-Königswartha-Bautzen) are documented with timetable boards from 15.12.2024 and ensure weekday accessibility-relevant for commuter locations and frequency in Hbf/Behördenpark/Lausitzer-Platz peripheries.
Urban development, concepts being updated and ESG levers
Hoyerswerda is renewing its strategic guidelines: following the earlier InSEK, a city-wide and regional development and action concept (GEREHK) is being developed - a step that has been confirmed by local reporting with public participation and which lays the foundation for implementation close to funding and clearer priorities in city/corridor locations. At the same time, on 23 June 2025, the city council approved the public presentation of the new retail and center concept - an important building block for strengthening central supply areas, which makes repositioning and first floor activations in 1A/1B locations easier to plan. Investment model: Core in refurbished, public transport-strong holdings on city bus/railway station corridors for stable cash flows; value-add via energy modernization (insulation, windows, efficient heating, PV) and ground floor repositioning along the prioritized axes-flanked by the 31k+ tenant base, the ZVON/VVO interfaces and the ongoing concept update as an exit lever.
