Innenstadt – Urban center close to the university
As a real estate agent in Erlangen city center, Davis & Partner knows the mixed structure of this central city district. The city center is a place of study, business location, cultural center and residential district all in one - with a buyer target group that ranges from investors to owner-occupiers. Anyone selling here benefits from a liquidity that is comparatively rare in Erlangen, supported by the FAU Erlangen-Nuremberg, the university hospitals and Siemens Healthineers.

The ownership structure is mixed: a mature private portfolio, long-term investors, existing properties from cooperative portfolios and individual institutional owners. This mix ensures constant demand across several property types and requires a differentiated approach to buyers, which we clearly separate according to profile.
What makes Innenstadt a prime location
Erlangen's city center extends around Hugenottenplatz, Schlossplatz and Bohlenplatz, framed by Schlossgarten to the east, Heinrich-Lades-Halle to the south and Innerer Brucker Straße to the west. The baroque city layout with its right-angled streets and representative buildings is a special feature that distinguishes Erlangen architecturally from Nuremberg and Fürth.
The connections are excellent. Erlangen's main train station is within walking distance, with connections to the S-Bahn to Nuremberg, regional and long-distance trains. The FAU University with its central locations at Schlossplatz, Audimax and Bohlenplatz is also within walking distance, as are the Markgrafentheater and the Heinrich-Lades-Halle as cultural hubs.
The development is heterogeneous: baroque and classicist old buildings on the representative squares, post-war buildings in the gaps and individual modern residential complexes. The mix is part of the identity - those who buy in Erlangen city center are looking for a compact city with direct routes to FAU, work and cultural offerings.
The property market in Innenstadt (Erlangen): Current trends
The city centre market in Erlangen is liquid and characterized by a dual buyer structure. Investors appreciate the extremely high rental demand from students, doctors, researchers and Siemens employees - one of the most stable rental demand structures in the whole of Bavaria. Owner-occupiers choose the city center for maximum accessibility and short distances.
In terms of price, Erlangen city center is well above the city average and in some areas above comparable inner-city locations in Nuremberg. Refurbished apartments in old buildings on Hugenottenplatz or with a view of the palace gardens achieve top prices; modern condominiums in well-kept complexes are also in the upper range. Rental yields are stable and central to investor appeal.
The range is considerable. There are several hundred euros per square meter between a renovated apartment in an old building with a view of the palace gardens and a post-war apartment in a side street. A blanket valuation in the city center is usually not enough - the micro-location in relation to the palace gardens or the university is decisive.

Why a professional property valuation in Innenstadt is essential
For Erlangen city center, we activate two clearly separated buyer pools: institutional and private investors with a focus on returns and owner-occupiers with a focus on proximity to the university and hospital. This segmentation enables precise marketing - depending on the property profile, we select the appropriate pool first.
In the case of investment properties, we work with a structured yield document that transparently shows the tenant profile, energy status, management costs and realistic potential for rent increases. This preparation shortens the due diligence phase and stabilizes the sales price.
In the case of multi-family houses and old buildings relevant to monument protection, we work together with the city archives and the lower monument protection authority of the city of Erlangen. If necessary, we coordinate experts, tax consultants and notaries near the city center.
