Rent caps, rent increase restrictions and the like: Many of these measures are justified by the alleged antisocial behavior of landlords. But the reality is a different one: A recent survey conducted by the Institut für Demoskopie Allensbach on behalf of WERTGRUND Immobilien AG showed that three quarters of all tenants are satisfied or very satisfied with their living situation.

To ensure that the relationship between tenant and landlord remains unencumbered, even if the property is sold, some rules must be respected. The following principle always applies: purchase does not break rent. The owner sells the property along with the existing tenancy. That does not have to be a disadvantage! Because surprisingly often the tenants acquire the apartment or family home themselves – at the previously determined market price. For this reason, the first thing we do, is speak to the tenants interested in buying and, if necessary, connect them with the relevant contacts in our network. The acquisition of a well-rented property allows investors an immediate and predictable return and facilitates financing. In addition, buyers save on refurbishment and rental expenses because the acquired property is already rented.

Our real estate experts manage hundreds of transactions each year, including around 50% of rented apartments and houses. In the event of a sale, we take care of the negotiations with the tenants in a highly professional and experienced manner, help to arrange the financing if the tenant is interested in making a purchase and, if the tenant is moving out, provide support with relocation management. We are also happy to coordinate the viewing appointments of rented apartments and houses between tenants and prospective buyers on your behalf.

In order to gain a clear picture of your own sales intentions, the first step is to evaluate the market: we determine the value of your property free of charge and with no obligations on your part, taking into account factors such as the rental situation. This gives you a realistic impression of your property’s value and provides you with a thoroughly calculated purchase price.
