Munich's rents are no longer the highest in Germany!
According to a recent national rental comparison, Munich, the Bavarian capital, is no longer the most expensive city in Germany to rent in. pearl apartments
In 2019, rents increased by 1.8 percent.
Although rents in Germany continue to
increase, they are not growing as rapidly as in previous years, according to a
recent study from the Research and Consulting Company for Housing, Real Estate,
and the Environment (F+B).
Every year, F+B compiles a rent index by
analyzing cold rents charged for average 65 square meter flats in municipalities
and cities with a population of at least 20.000 people. According to this
year's survey, which covered 351 cities and municipalities, prices increased by
1.8% in 2019, a 0.4% decrease from the previous year, to an average of 7,04
euros per square metre.
Stuttgart has overtaken Berlin as Germany's
most expensive capital.
Although rents in Berlin's eastern suburbs,
Potsdam, Dresden, and Schwerin are still lower than the national average,
Stuttgart has now surpassed Munich as Germany's most expensive city for
renters.
In 2019, Stuttgart renters paid an average
of 10,41 euros per square foot, which was 48 percent higher than the national
average. Since F+B started collecting data in 1996, this is the first time
Baden-capital Württemberg's has topped the rankings.
Prices are also comparatively strong in
other major cities such as Hamburg, Düsseldorf, Frankfurt am Main, and Cologne.
On the other hand, they are just marginally above average in Berlin's west, at
7,32 euros per square metre.
Tenants in Berlin with old rental
contracts, according to F+B, have a significant advantage over newcomers.
Though increasingly growing rents force newcomers to pay much more than they
should, long-term renters can still live in Germany's capital city for a
reasonable price.
The suburbs are catching up to the cities
in terms of price growth.
The study also revealed that the suburbs
are becoming more costly than the city in some parts of the world. Karlsfeld,
in the Dachau district on the outskirts of Munich, has the most expensive
municipality in Germany. Renters pay an average of 10,86 euros per square meter
in this city.
“This demonstrates that the old rule that
those who want to live cheaply must relocate to the suburbs” is no longer true,
according to F+B. They said that the rents in inner-city areas have prompted
more people to look for housing outside of the city, causing prices in the
suburbs to rise as well.
