Do you own an existing property that is vacant or no longer meets modern living standards?
One effective way to increase property value is through densification – by adding balconies or loggias. They improve living quality, create additional space, and increase both demand and rental income.
Types of densification: turning existing buildings into new living space
In addition to roof extensions or building additions, retrofitted balconies, loggias, or modular building elements are a popular method of densification in urban areas. Especially in multi-storey residential buildings, they offer a cost-efficient solution with a significant positive impact on property value
Expand your property with balconies and loggias
Many buildings from the 1960s and 1970s lack balconies and are energetically inefficient. Given today’s high construction costs and long building times, it’s worth upgrading existing properties in a targeted way. Retrofitting balconies and loggias creates additional living space, increases market value, and is far more cost-effective than new construction.
Why densification pays off
Upgraded balconies increase rental income and make apartments more attractive.
- Additional living space: Balconies and loggias expand the usable floor area. When equipped with glazing, they can serve as fully functional living extensions – increasing both rental and resale value.
- More comfort and energy efficiency: Glazed balconies provide up to 28 dB noise reduction and improve thermal insulation, helping to lower heating costs – a clear advantage given rising energy prices.
- Year-round use: A glazed loggia serves as a protected living area in winter and can be fully opened in summer – for maximum comfort and flexibility.
- Solar power from the balcony: PV railings generate electricity directly where it’s needed – covering part of the apartment’s own energy demand.
