OPPORTUNITY ANALYSIS

Landsberger Allee Berlin is a compelling investment opportunity due to its fantastic central location and the high standard of its apartments.

 

It has been 25 years since the reunification of Berlin and it is now home to the fastest growing economy in Germany. The city is characterised by a rich cultural scene, top ranked Universities and a thriving innovation industry. All these factors are attracting new residents from across Germany and the World, resulting in a strong demand for property.

 

It is currently ranked the #1 investment destination by PWC in their Emerging Trends in Real Estate report. Recent years have seen annual deficits of 15,000 housing units and price increases of 10-13% annually.

Rental Demand

The increasingly high demand for property in the area caused an upward trend in rental prices; within a radius of 500 meters from the property new rental contracts reach 8.5 -11 EUR/ SqM. According to the data collected by CBRE, new leases in the area’s top rental segment stand at 14-15 EUR/SqM.

 

Re-Sale

The market price for renovated vacant apartments in the immediate vicinity surpasses 5,000 EUR/SqM, significantly higher than Inspiration Group offerings.
