Möbelland in Neuberg: Last chance of bargains before closing!

The furniture store "Möbelland" in Neuberg, Hessen, is about to close its doors. The farewell to April 27, 2025 was planned, but now the last day of sale was postponed to May 4, 2025. On this day there is a large flea market from 12 noon to 5 p.m., which is the highlight of the clearance sale. The withdrawal of the furniture store is accompanied by discounts of up to 90 percent to various articles as well as the hope of numerous buyers who want to look around the “furniture land” one last time. Over 50 solid wood tables and other kitchen parts are offered at the price of one euro per centimeter, which attracts potential customers. The details have merkur.de

The furniture store that has a long history in the region gives way to a new residential project. According to op-online.de, there are extensive new construction projects on the coming years. By 2029, a residential park with 250 condominiums, an underground car park and a day care center is to be built. A total of 3.7 hectares are used for this, through which the municipality will grow by around 10 percent. First, construction in Ravolzhausen should begin, with the first five apartment buildings with three floors and a relay floor to be built in the coming years.

Construction of living space in Germany: a tricky location

The background of the closure of "furniture land" is part of a larger trend in German housing, which is evident in a current study. Real estate methods warn of a profound crisis in housing in Germany in their spring report. For 2025, only 230,000 new residential units are expected, which is far below the target of 400,000. The Situation is also reflected in the general economic situation, which is located in the fourth year of stagnation. Therefore, the baurezession and the high interest rates for construction projects are relevant factors that burden housing construction.

In order to counter this complex situation, experts like Iris Schöberl from ZIA require a reduction in regulations in housing and state support. "Less bureaucracy and more staff in building authorities are necessary steps," she emphasizes. In addition, promotion of standardized construction methods and a reduction in real estate transfer tax and sales tax in housing is required in order to create the urgently needed living space. In view of the lack of living space that leads to rising rents, the closure of the furniture store "Möbelland" is another sign of how much the region is changing.
