Home ownership is propably the widest spread and socially best
balanced form of wealth in Germany. This is the result of a well
established financial culture which doesn‘t look for „quick wins“ but
is aimed at long lasting and stable values

Saving for an house takes time…
Example:
  
   
  
Ten potential home owners, each of them
is able to save 10,000 € p.a.
Costs for one house
are 100,000 €
If every potential home owner saves only for his own house,
it takes each of them ten years, until they have enough
money to built it
Jens Kuderer, LL.M. // Stuttgart, May 8th 2014

The basic Idea: help for self-help
Example:
Potential home owners pool their money in a common fund
Year 1
The 1st one can buy or
build a house by drawing
on the savings of the
other nine
Year 10
Year 2
The 2nd one can realise his
house by drawing on the
savings of eight plus the
redemption payments made by
the first one
All of them are able to buy or
build their houses by using this
system, 4.5 years earlier on
average as if each had saved
the necessary money alone

Wüstenrot

Today a allotment is calculated using a mathematical
assessment process
Relevant for the allotment is to reach the „Bewertungszahl“ (evaluation figure)
Calculation of the Bewertungszahl (BZ):
200 x TB
BZ =
D / 1000 + ZF x D x D / (SHS + 3 x G)
TB = Tilgungsbeitrag
D = Differenz Bausparsumme / Bausparguthaben
ZF = Zinsfaktor
SHS = Summe Habensalden
G = Bausparguthaben

Differences between the US-Loan system
and the Bauspar -system
US-Loans
Bausparen
100 % mortgage
+ up to 20 % on top
Conservative mortgage limit
(usually 80 %)
No equity required
Equity required
Volatile interest rates
Fixed mortgage interest rate till the
loan is paid back completely
Customers without sustainable
financial capability get loans
The customer has proven his financial
capability during the savings phase
Low requirements on the solvency of
the institutions
Governmental supervision and strong
restrictments

Market opportunities
Bausparen is more than buying or building houses:

Accumulation of capital assets

Securing the value of wealth by investing in
real estate, especially in times of inflation

Energy efficient refurbishment

Retirement provisions by
 Owning a house (no costs for rent)
 „Wohnriester/Eigenheimrente“ – Bauspar-contracts
with governmental incentives especially for private
pension provisons
Additional income from rent


Bildungssparen – Using the Bauspar-contract to finance academic studies
(in Austria only)
However, the Bauspar-regulations limit the usage of Bausparcontracts to certain purposes usually related to housing (e.g.
Bauspar-loans can’t be used to purchase a car or for travelling)
