Berlin is a very affordable as well as promising real estate market with plenty of room for growth. When compared to other German cities, like Hamburg, Frankfurt, and Munich, Berlin offers several advantages. These include attractive entry level prices such the affordable cost per square meter, and a high rate of capital appreciation, which is currently around 13%. Despite the current rental cap, property owners are still able to enjoy a high rental yield, and expect to be able to continue raising rent prices either after January 2022, or if the constitutional court overturns the ruling enstating the rent freeze later this year. Regardless, demand continues to outpace supply in terms of property in Berlin, making real estate a lucrative investment.

The success and regeneration enjoyed by Berlin over the last ten years continues, evident in the city's occupancy rate, which currently stands at an impressive 98%. Demand is far outstripping supply, meaning that apartments are always highly sought after. In the rare case one ever becomes unoccupied, it is unlikely to be so for long. For the past ten years, property prices have been rising linearly: In 2010, the median price for a property in Berlin was around 1,550 EUR/m². As of March 2021, the median price is at 5,070 EUR/m² for properties built before 2015.

When compared to other major cities in both Europe and Germany, the cost of living in Berlin in remarkably inexpensive, with Berliners spending significant less per month on living expenses than their national and international neighbours. This means that it is still relatively affordable to buy an investment property in Berlin, and since the city attracts up to 40,000 new residents every year, your apartment will always be in demand.

Among other advantages, Berlin enjoys a high market turnover of around 10 billion euros per year, on par with Paris and ahead of Frankfurt, Hamburg, and Munich. This turnover means Berlin is a highly liquid market, with plenty of opportunities for investors to take advantage of. Berlin's central location in Europe makes it a lucrative place for investors, giving them direct access to the entire EU market as well as Central and Eastern Europe.

Germany, a historical powerhouse of industry and manufacturing, offers a strong, stable economy in which to invest. Several advantages make it particularly attractive for real estate investment. These include low interest rates, easy access to capital, as well as a record of stable returns, and favourable conditions for long-term investments.
