Over 30 years of experience as a real estate specialist
We generally market your property in Cham initially off-market — without a sign, without an online advertisement, without a public exposé. Only when the discreet route has been exhausted and you expressly wish it, do we move to broad marketing. This way, your privacy is preserved — from neighbours, tenants, employees, and the tax office.

The Cham district is the easternmost district within the Upper Palatinate region of East Bavaria. Its territory primarily consists of the Upper Palatinate and Bavarian Forests, separated by the Cham-Further Senke. The Regen river flows through the district from southeast to west, and the entire area is situated within the Upper Bavarian Forest Nature Park. The district borders the Czech Republic, along with the Bavarian districts of Schwandorf, Regensburg, Straubing-Bogen, and Regen. This location in the Upper Palatinate Forest and proximity to the Czech border makes the region appealing to property buyers and owners seeking a natural environment and cross-border connections.

Current average purchase price per m² for houses in Cham: 3,420 €/m²
House prices in Cham have risen significantly over several years — driven by its proximity to Munich, high demand for family-friendly home ownership, and limited supply. Strong increases until 2022 were followed by a slight correction in 2023/2024, before the market recently showed renewed strength.
| Year | Avg. value | Change |
|---|---|---|
| 2015 | 2,250 €/m² | – |
| 2016 | 2,340 €/m² | +4 % |
| 2017 | 2,450 €/m² | +4.7 % |

Current average purchase price per m² for apartments in Cham: 3,760 €/m²
Apartments in Cham have also shown a positive long-term price development. It was particularly dynamic between 2017 and 2022. Since 2023, a noticeable calming has been observed — albeit without significant price decreases. The limited supply continues to support the price level to this day.

Current average rent per m² in Cham: 8.90 €/m²
Rents in Cham have continuously increased in recent years. The development was particularly dynamic between 2018 and 2022. In 2023/2024, the increase continued at a more moderate pace — a sign of an already high rental level with stable demand.
| Year | Avg. value | Change |
|---|---|---|
| 2015 | 6.30 €/m² | – |
| 2016 | 6.50 €/m² | +3.2 % |

| 2024 | 8.90 €/m² | +4.1 % |
Current average land value per m² in Cham: 210 €/m²
The land value in Cham has developed significantly upwards — a reflection of the quality of the location and its proximity to the Munich market. Plots are scarce, and demand is structurally high. Strong increases until 2022 were followed by a brief consolidation before values stabilised.
| Year | Avg. value | Change |
|---|---|---|
| 2015 | 120 €/m² | – |
| 2016 | 128 €/m² | +6.7 % |
| 2017 | 136 €/m² | +6.3 % |

| 2024 | 210 €/m² | +1 % |
The real estate market in Cham can be classified as generally balanced with a slightly tight supply. For houses and apartments, demand is stable, particularly in good residential areas, near the town centre and in family-friendly peripheral areas. At the same time, the manageable volume of new construction limits supply, which supports property prices in Cham in the long term. Compared to larger Bavarian cities, the price level remains moderate, making Cham attractive for owner-occupiers who want to buy a house in Cham or buy an apartment in Cham without having to move to the price regions of major metropolitan areas. For sellers, the market remains solid, although momentum has slowed somewhat since 2023. Capital investors will find an environment with reliable lettability and a rough gross rental yield range of approximately 2.8 % to 4.0 % for apartments, depending on location, condition and price level. Overall, rental prices in Cham and stable standard land values point to a healthy, long-term viable market with regional relevance.
Anyone wishing to soundly classify the market in Cham within the Bavarian market, with its strong connection to Munich, should take a look at the multi-year price development. For detached and terraced houses in Cham, the average purchase price moved from 2,250 €/m² in 2015 to the current 3,420 €/m² (2024) — a total change of +52.0 % over 9 years, which corresponds to an average value increase of +4.8 % p.a. The previous peak was reached in 2022 at 3,430 €/m²; since then, the market has corrected by -0.3 % — a typical pattern in many German medium-sized markets following the interest rate turnaround. Condominiums in Cham started at around 2,450 €/m² in 2015 and are now at 3,760 €/m² (+53.5 % over 9 years, Ø +4.9 % p.a.). This makes them suitable as an entry point into home ownership or as a capital investment with a manageable ticket size. The average net cold rent in Cham developed from 6.30 €/m² (2015) to the current 8.90 €/m² — +41.3 % over 9 years or Ø +3.9 % p.a. For landlords, the continuous rent increase ensures a predictable adjustment to inflation and operating costs. The standard land value in Cham rose from 120 €/m² (2015) to the current 210 €/m² (+75.0 % in 9 years) — an essential indicator of the structural location quality and local demand for building land. Based on current values, a rented condominium in Cham yields a calculated gross rental yield of around 2.8 % — without taking into account vacancy, maintenance and ancillary purchase costs. Experience shows that realistic net yields are 0.8 to 1.5 percentage points lower. With around 17,000 inhabitants, Cham forms a comparatively tight market segment — which means: properties that are priced correctly for the market and well-prepared are generally sold or let quickly, while overpriced offers remain on the market longer and lose negotiating room. For owners in Cham who are considering a sale or letting, an individual, data-based valuation is the most important first step — it replaces estimates from online calculators, which cannot reflect micro-location, energy efficiency and property substance. FREITAG® provides this valuation free of charge and without obligation.
Rental yield range (approx.): 2.8 – 4 % gross.

Frequently asked questions about buying, selling, financing, and living in Cham — concisely answered.
Many owners in Cham are sitting on an asset that they cannot access because they do not want to give up their home. This is precisely whatProperty annuity (Immobilienverrentung) is for: The sale takes place, but the move-out does not. Depending on the model — Usufruct, Right of abode, Life annuity or Leaseback — the purchase price is paid as a lump sum, as a monthly annuity, or as a combination of both.
Security is crucial: The right of abode (Wohnrecht) is entered in the land register (Grundbuch) in the first rank, before the buyer is registered as the owner. We will calculate for your property in Cham how much the usufruct (Nießbrauch) value reduces the purchase price — and whether this is more profitable compared to a traditional sale.
We approach this with an open mind. If a normal sale with a subsequent move is economically better for you, we will tell you — instead of trying to sell a property annuity (Immobilienverrentung) model that doesn't suit your needs.
Entrepreneurs in Cham who wish to sell their commercial property and lease it back use Sale & Lease-Back: They sell office buildings, warehouses or practice premises to an investor, receive liquidity for growth or consolidation, and lease the property back long-term. The location in Cham remains unchanged.
FREITAG® accompanies the entire process: value-based valuation, selection of qualified investors, contract drafting with clear lease-back conditions — including options for repurchase and flexible terms.
We check free of charge whether your commercial property in Cham is suitable for a Sale & Lease-Back and obtain transparent offers — without obligation and without hidden costs.
Hospitality properties in Cham are valued differently from residential properties: Key factors are turnover, contribution margin, seating capacity, kitchen technology, licences, and whether the business can function without the previous owner. We value based on the earnings approach and openly state which portions are attributable to the property, inventory, and goodwill.
Marketing is conducted discreetly. A publicly visible sales offer unsettles staff, regular customers, and suppliers in Cham — therefore, we approach interested parties specifically and under a confidentiality agreement.
Whether selling, leasing, or handing over to a successor within the family: We structure the path that suits the situation of your business in Cham , and accompany you until the notary or lease agreement appointment.

Detailed analysis of the plot, year of construction, condition, and micro-location. We develop an individual marketing strategy and support the house sale up to the notary appointment.
We consider the declaration of division (Teilungserklärung), service charge (Hausgeld), energy performance certificate, reserves, and target group — and structure the entire sales process for you.
We clarify the development plan, development status, and suspected contamination in advance — this prevents price reductions during negotiations.
Office, practice, warehouse, hotel, or gastronomy — discreet marketing with a sound valuation and personal support until completion.
The right rental price determines whether a property stands vacant or has long-term tenants. We set it at a market-appropriate level and pre-filter interested parties, instead of holding mass viewings.
For houses, tenant quality matters more than the final price point. We select tenants who will look after the property long-term.
Sell and stay living in your home: We compare the four common models based on your situation and clearly state the disadvantages as well as the advantages.

The report covers a fully let new office building in Baar before construction begins, mentioning Cham Swiss Properties as a company based in Cham. The connection to Cham is through the company based there, not a construction project within the municipality itself.
The report mentions progress in the construction and development activities of Cham Swiss Properties and refers to work on the Kesselhaus as well as buildings E and F on the Papieri-Areal in Cham. This is a current report on a central real estate project in the municipality.
The BayernPortal refers to the city of Cham as the responsible building authority for information from land use and development plans. This is a direct, official point of contact for construction and development issues in Cham.
The city of Cham provides information on the property tax rates applicable from 2025. It mentions 280 percent for property tax A and 210 percent for property tax B, which is directly relevant for owners and property holders in Cham.
The page for the CHAMA area reports the start of construction and describes the residential and commercial space being created between the Lorze and existing properties. It mentions around 140 apartments as well as around 3000 square meters of service and commercial space.
The project page describes CHAMA 1 and 2 in Cham as a new place to live and work near the Lorze with apartments, commercial space, and parking. It mentions, among other things, 52 condominiums, 90 rental apartments, and other areas; in addition, a second phase is planned for CHAMA 2.
According to the report, the first phase of the Papieri-Areal in Cham has been completed, and the demand for the apartments is described as very high. At the same time, it points to the second construction phase with two residential high-rises, around 100 apartments, 50 micro-apartments, as well as daycare, office, and commercial space.
The head of the Cham Group is leaving the company with immediate effect. The company is responsible for the development of the Papieri-Areal in the center of Cham, which is why the change is also relevant for the ongoing real estate projects in the municipality.
