Since our latest rent overview in February 2017, Munich has exceeded the 30 Euro per m² threshold and Stuttgart has pushed Frankfurt from the second to the third place – with a rent of 27.43 € per m². Compared to the second quarter 2016, Stuttgart is also the A-City with the highest rent increase. Since then, only Dresden has seen a (relatively) higher increase. The analysed advertisements are furnished, for temporary use and the rates include ancillary costs.
The total rent in the German A-Cities varies from 1167€ per month in Munich, 992€ in Frankfurt, 968€ in Stuttgart, 902€ in Cologne, 883€ in Dusseldorf, to 820€ in Berlin and 794€ in Hamburg.
For those who are interested in German market for micro-living and student housing, we have taken a look into our data to figure out some facts which may improve the understanding of the German student housing market.
The university cities show the highest student demand excess, measured by students per online ads [(students – students in residence halls)/online offers)] , especially in student compatible sub-markets (‘one-room-flats’, ‘shared flats’ and ‘temporary living offers’). In Tübingen and Darmstadt there are more than 25 students for each student compatible residence offer.
We found out, that the market segment ‘shared flats’ is essential and valuable in context of analysing student housing markets as well as for micro-living issues.
High market shares of ‘shared flat offers’ indicate student markets, as well as markets with high demand for ‘one-room-flats’ and ‘micro-apartments’. Rates for ‘shared flats’ also indicate accepted market rents, their upper percentiles show a critical willingness to pay and their spatial distribution indicates student hotspots. Despite these aspects the segment is hardly under investigation.
The increasing flexibility of the labour market, as well as the internationalization of education and universities, improve the attractiveness of micro living and student housing as an asset class in Germany.
