My friend just bought his first apartment, 68km from Munich He's 62, been saving since university Listing price was €320k, but final cost: €880k Why such a difference you might ask? Property tax: €34k Notary fees: €11k Broker commission: €190k Energy compliance retrofit: €108k Mandatory solar panel installation: €143k Carbon offset contribution: €44k Climate adaptation fee: €60k Social housing contribution: €121k Heritage surcharge: €83k Apartment has two bedrooms but he can only use one The other is a designated refugee accommodation under the Bavarian Integration Housing Act He is also forbidden to use parking space, because the street was reclassified as a bicycle priority zone He moves in 11 months, pending building safety and carbon emissions certification This is what we call the European dream
