Property description

Small flat with 70 m² of living space on the 1st floor of the main building Josefstraße 17, Gelsenkirchen-Neustadt. The three-storey multi-family house from 1898 has a full basement and is let. The unit to be valued is used together with flats No. 4 and 5 as an economic unit; a separation is planned and approved.

The flat consists of a hallway, bathroom with shower, living room, eat-in kitchen and two bedrooms with standard fittings and new plastic windows. The service charge amounts to 700 EUR per month. The flat is currently let as part of a combined three-unit entity with a rental agreement and yield that are still unknown.

The overall property shows significant defects: severe moisture damage to the courtyard façade, a neglected shared staircase with mould growth, two outbuildings in critical condition with risk of collapse, as well as three ongoing building-regulation proceedings. The buyer must expect major refurbishment expenditure, including the proportional costs for the common areas.
