Arable land & grassland
Selling arable land or grassland
When selling arable land and grassland, soil quality, leases and the approval requirement determine the price and the process. I value your land and sell to farmers and investors.
In short
Do I need approval to sell arable land or grassland?
In North Rhine-Westphalia yes, as soon as the area exceeds one hectare: the sale then requires approval under the Land Transactions Act (Grundstückverkehrsgesetz), and from two hectares a statutory right of first refusal may also apply. Other federal states have their own thresholds; I clarify both before the sale.
What matters
What makes land valuable
For arable land and grassland, what counts is soil quality rating, shape, access and lease situation. A parcel on a long-term lease has a different group of buyers and a different price from vacant land. Standard land values (Bodenrichtwerte) give an initial guide; what matters are the prices actually paid in the region and local demand.
