Bützow is a picturesque town located on the Warnow River in the Rostock district, with a long and rich history. First mentioned in documents in 1229, it was granted town rights in 1236, served as a bishop's seat for centuries, and was a university town. Today, approximately 7,500 people live in this small town, which enjoys a particularly charming island-like location between the Warnow River and the Bützower See lake.

The historic old town boasts impressive Brick Gothic architecture, including the three-nave collegiate church from the 13th century, the town hall in Tudor Gothic style located directly on the market square, and the "Crooked House," which now houses a library, museum, and documentation center.

Bützow has excellent transport links. The train station, which was made fully accessible in 2021, is located on the lines connecting Bad Kleinen to Rostock and Bützow to Szczecin. The Hanseatic city of Rostock, with its university, Baltic Sea port, and large labor market, is easily accessible by train in approximately 20 minutes (about 29 km) – a clear location advantage for tenants who work or study in Rostock but prefer the quieter and more affordable small town as a place to live. This makes Bützow a solid commuter location for investors, with stable rental prospects.
