Request information about comparative purchase prices from the purchase price collection of the appraisal committee

You can use information from the purchase price collection to determine comparative values.


The information is provided by the office of the expert committee for property values in the state office for geoinformation and surveying (LGV) if there is evidence of a legitimate interest.

Detailed description

The expert committee for property values has the legal mandate to maintain a collection of purchase prices within its area of responsibility.


The purchase price database contains structured, evaluated information about contracts for the purchase and exchange of real estate, land, parts of land and rights to land.


The contracts are submitted to the valuation committee by the certifying bodies (usually notaries). Additional information is also requested from the contracting parties.


Information from the purchase price database is not intended for public access and is only available in cases of legitimate interest.


Experts can use comparable prices from the purchase price database to determine value, especially in the comparative value method.
