Hello everyone,
A quick question for you: What do you think about the new standards for new construction and what they might mean for all of us? It seems that the requirements for new buildings are increasing significantly. Policymakers are placing more emphasis on energy efficiency and sustainability, which of course also has an impact on construction costs. This could have considerable consequences for many of us who are thinking about building a new house or purchasing a property. On one hand, it’s good that we are building in a more environmentally friendly and sustainable way, but on the other hand, this might also push property prices even higher. What are your thoughts on this? How do you think these new standards will affect the real estate market, and should we as future homeowners or buyers pay attention to anything in particular?
Looking forward to your opinions! 😉

Why not? A 20 percent increase is quite significant in my opinion.Within three years. So for a 70sqm (750 sq ft) apartment, that’s about 70€ per month – rent then fixed for three years. And that’s just within the local rent index. Significant means something else.
Why DO you have to increase it? Which government regulations require you to do so? You didn’t mention anything about that.

It becomes critical when the German welfare state collapses under its own weight. Supporting millions of refugees and welfare recipients on such a large scale will not be sustainable in the long term with a shrinking economy and declining tax revenues. Is it really impossible for you to avoid the usual hate speech?
There was a new rent index introduced in Berlin this year. The result is that I could raise the rent by more than 100 EUR. However, I would feel uncomfortable doing that. On the other hand, the fixed interest rate period ends in 2027. In preparation for that, it might be sensible to increase the rent a little now so that the increase won’t be too large in two years.
