Rentals run on rules

The rent side, in three lines

  • Deposits cap at three months’ cold rent (§551 BGB) and must sit on a separate savings account.
  • Mietpreisbremse caps new leases above local comparative rent in tight areas; Berlin’s Mietspiegel sets the benchmark.
  • Modernization may be passed on at 8% of cost per year (§559 BGB) — check the Anpassung history before you underwrite.

Qualitative anchors only — live numbers come from the official city Mietspiegel, never a hardcoded table.

Developers

The builders behind the pipeline

Municipal landlords, premium Bauträger and boutique owner-run developers — tracked from Handelsregister to handover.

Bavaria charges 3.5% Grunderwerbsteuer — the lowest rate among all German federal states. With notary and Grundbuch registration adding roughly 1.5%, total buyer ancillary costs start at just ~5% before broker commission.

Munich is Germany’s premier capital-preservation market. Yields in Altstadt-Lehel, Maxvorstadt and Schwabing average 2.5–3.2% gross, backed by global corporate headquarters (BMW, Siemens, Allianz) and structural housing supply constraints.

FAQ

Why are ancillary purchase costs lower in Munich?
Bavaria maintains a 3.5% Grunderwerbsteuer, compared to 6.0% in Berlin and 6.5% in North Rhine-Westphalia, saving buyers tens of thousands of euros on closing.
Is Munich property suitable for yield or capital growth?
Munich is primarily a wealth-preservation and long-term equity growth market. Low vacancy rates (<0.3%) ensure dependable occupancy and stable rental cashflow.
