Who can benefit from the subsidy?

The program is aimed at private owners of residential properties, landlords, and tenants who want to make their property barrier-free. Measures such as the following are eligible for funding:

  • The installation of stair lifts or ramps
  • Widening doors
  • The conversion of bathrooms (e.g., floor-level showers)
  • Improvements to building services to increase safety, such as intercom systems or motion detectors.
  • many other measures, which we have listed in more detail below.

How much funding is available?

The subsidy rates vary depending on the measure and the applicant. As a rule, you can expect subsidies of up to $6,250 per residential unit. Important: The exact amount depends on the total funding available and the prioritization of applications. As program funds are limited, the principle of "first come, first served" applies.

Steps to obtaining funding – How it works

  1. Assess your needs: Consider what renovations would be useful in your property to reduce barriers.
  2. Obtain quotes: Seek advice from specialist companies and draw up a detailed cost estimate.
  3. Apply for funding: Submit your application in good time to KfW Bank, which awards the funds. Important: Measures may only be started after approval has been granted!
  4. Carry out the work: Once approval has been granted, you can begin the renovations. Make sure that all work is carried out by certified specialist companies.
  5. Submit proof of use: Once the renovations are complete, you must provide KfW with proof that the funds have been used properly.

What needs to be considered in 2025?

The budget of €150 million is subject to budget approval. It is therefore advisable to plan ahead and submit your application as soon as the subsidy has been officially approved.

Sustainability in the real estate sector: support programs and benefits for owners

Sustainability is no longer just a buzzword, but plays a central role in the real estate sector. Owners who focus on energy-efficient construction, resource-saving modernization, or sustainable management of their properties today benefit in several ways: through government subsidy programs, long-term cost savings, and a significant increase in the value of their property. In the Olpe district and neighboring regions in particular, the requirements for sustainable standards are rising—and with them the demand for modern, future-proof properties. Whether KfW promotional loans for energy-efficient renovation, subsidies for photovoltaic systems, or special incentives from the federal states: it is worthwhile for owners to invest specifically in sustainable measures. In addition to reducing ongoing operating costs, such investments significantly increase the attractiveness of properties for buyers and tenants. Better rentability, higher return prospects, and a greater sense of security with regard to upcoming legal regulations are convincing arguments for more sustainability in real estate portfolios. Those who look into funding opportunities and sustainable concepts early on create real added value for themselves and future generations.

Barrier-free living: demand and implementation options in Olpe and the surrounding area

Barrier-free living is no longer a niche topic—demand is growing rapidly in Olpe and the surrounding region. More and more property owners and house hunters are recognizing the value of living space that is free of structural barriers and offers comfort for all generations.

The growing demand for barrier-free real estate ensures that such properties are specifically sought after and carefully planned. Modern barrier-free apartments impress with wide passageways, level access, threshold-free bathrooms, and intelligent details that make everyday life noticeably easier.

Those who opt for barrier-free design early on not only secure a larger pool of interested buyers, but also invest in comfort and quality of life for the future.

Energy-efficient renovation offers homeowners in the Olpe district a rare opportunity to increase the long-term value of their property in a targeted manner.

In addition to the increase in value, owners also benefit from government subsidy programs that make it easier to invest in energy-efficient renovations. In the Olpe district, many homeowners are already relying on innovative solutions to significantly reduce their energy costs while contributing to climate protection.
