Moving to Sweden

Your new life in Sweden — affordable and within reach

A calmer life with a house of your own, space and nature: in Sweden that is affordable, even for ordinary people. I'm Alexander, German, who moved to Värmland years ago — and I guide you personally from the first question to your own home. It starts with affordable houses direct from the owner, with no agent in between.

Why Rabenfels

Three things that make the difference

Our own houses, no brokering

You buy directly from the owner. No agent fee, which otherwise quickly adds 8,000–10,000 € to the price.

Real Swedish prices

You pay what a house in Sweden is worth. No prices inflated for foreign buyers.

You're not on your own

From the first contact, I guide you through the purchase. In English, without you having to fight your way through public authorities.

Who is behind Rabenfels

Someone who lives there himself

I'm Alexander, German, and I moved to Värmland in central Sweden six years ago. I speak the language and I know the market here, because I live in the middle of it. What I sell are not other people's properties, but houses of my own.

A common question

Why the houses are cheap

Houses in rural Sweden are cheap for reasons that make sense. In many rural municipalities there are more houses than buyers. On top of that comes the direct sale: at Rabenfels you buy straight from the owner, with no agent fee. How much work has already gone into a house varies from one to the next, and you'll know where it stands before you buy.
