Selling a house: is now the right time as house prices are falling?

Probably yes. Property prices have risen steadily in recent years, but there are signs that the boom is stalling. In some regions and for certain real estate segments, prices have even fallen slightly. The possibility of getting a better price now than in a few months or years is therefore good.

But at the same time you need a new apartment to rent, and here the market has continued to dry up in most regions, which is driving up prices. The financial viability of a sale therefore depends to a large extent on the specific circumstances.

Also keep in mind that a sale comes with costs: brokerage fees

, property gains tax, notary and land registry fees – all of this reduces your sales revenue. On the other hand, it doesn’t make sense to stay in a house that is too big just for economic reasons.
