Murderer Houses: Financial expert examines mediation after tragic events

Murderer Houses: Financial expert examines mediation after tragic events

The apartment in which the Stuttgart singer Anna Sutter was once shot is now inhabited again. But there are still so-called “murderer houses” that cannot be sold. A survey has revealed surprising insights into who could imagine living in such a house. This is reported by the Stuttgarter Zeitung.

The story of Anna Sutter and the royal Württemberg court music director Aloys Obrist is tragic. After she ended her affair with Obrist, he broke into her apartment in the Bad Cannstatt district of Stuttgart and shot her with two pistol shots. That was in 1910. It is not known whether the apartment was empty for a long time afterwards, but it is now inhabited again.

The survey shows that, surprisingly, there are people who could imagine living in such a “murderer’s house”. Around 32% of those surveyed would feel comfortable in such a house, while 68% would reject it. Young people between the ages of 18 and 34 are particularly open to such properties, while older people aged 55 and over tend to react negatively.

The impact of these findings on the real estate market could be diverse. On the one hand, “murder houses” could have a certain spooky factor and thus attract people who are looking for something special. On the other hand, many potential buyers may be put off by such properties and prefer other properties.

It remains to be seen how the real estate market develops in this area and whether such houses are actually more difficult to broker. The “murderer’s house” factor might be off-putting to some people, while others might find this a special atmosphere.
