Addresses issues relating to the calculation of floor space in residential properties. This is a key determinant of overall cost. However in most of Germany there is no legislation defining how floor measurements should be made. Compounding this, the two standards in use are either officially abandoned or widely seen as unsuitable for residential properties. Presents an empirical analysis of the problems with particular reference to examples in Munich. Finds that the methods of measurement in use are difficult for experts and incomprehensible for buyers and that figures yielded by the calculations are often misleading.
