Building houses above supermarkets: the novelty of real estate

Space is never enough. Especially for what concerns the real estate sector. What has recently made headlines in the newspapers is how large multinationals are able to upset even the least urbanized places with ease. Converting them into tourist areas and creating new residential areas.

 Obviously, what is most affected is the concept of environmental sustainability. In these last periods where the demand goes crazy and the market is not always able to satisfy all the requests of the sector, it is advisable to opt for other solutions. Among these, a novelty that seems to have been embraced by several multinationals, however, is that of building apartments above the main supermarkets in the city. An innovative idea, to respond to the need for rents or much cheaper sales contracts.

These projects were initially undertaken in Germany, but are also receiving full acceptance from other countries. In particular, the request to adopt this new form that could radically change the world of real estate has been accepted with a loud voice by the most popular cities of the moment.

In fact, we have already listed, in the previous guides, which cities are most attractive to potential buyers, despite the fact that the cost of living is not so affordable. And here is the solution described above, it turns out to be extremely valid. Among the German cities that have joined the project, we remember Berlin (with over 2,000 units, we remember Berlin (which involved most of the supermarkets), but also Munich and Frankfurt. But what are the dimensions that this phenomenon can reach?
It is speculated that many other countries, even those with a significantly lower cost of living, such as those in Eastern Europe, will take these measures. In Germany, a maximum of 30,000 new housing units are expected. But probably the phenomenon will have a much wider margin of action.

But will the prices remain that way? Or will they increase? Probably, once the phenomenon has stabilized and is no longer considered as exceptional, prices may rise. But, if we consider that these are constructions aimed precisely at increasing the supply by virtue of a demand that is certainly not elitist, we can well understand how the price range will remain unchanged.

Among the main nations that have joined, in addition to Germany, this all-real New Deal, we remember:
- Spain
- England
- Netherlands
- Italy
- Switzerland
- Denmark
- Ireland
- Portugal

This is a truly unique innovation, despite its simplicity, because it gives real estate a new face. That of the economic sector capable of being flexible (even more) to the needs of a market still in the making.
