Brandenburg is a federated state of Germany that completely surrounds the capital city of Berlin. This flat, expansive region shares international borders with Poland, specifically the Lubusz Voivodeship and the West Pomeranian Voivodeship, alongside several neighbouring German states. Its highest point is the Kutschenberg. The region is served by Berlin Schönefeld Airport and hosts several higher education institutions, including the Technical University of Applied Sciences Wildau, the GISMA Business School, and Campus Potsdam.
Brandenburg is a dear part of Germany to buy property, with average sale prices sitting well above the national average. The local housing market concentrates heavily in Potsdam, which holds far more of the housing stock than any other municipality. Potsdam is also the most expensive of the major residential hubs, though still cheaper than the regional average. Buyers find more affordable options in the smaller towns and cities. Hennigsdorf holds the next largest share of homes, followed by Brandenburg an der Havel and Brieselang, where prices are significantly lower than in Potsdam.
