German property is very much like the German automobile; never going to win any prizes for flamboyance, but awe inspiring in its reliable stability and performance.
Fewer Germans own their home than in any other developed country; just 46%, so there is very much a renter's culture within the German property market.
Because of the volume of people living in rented property, the German government has been forced to impose some pretty harsh restrictions on rental rates, to ensure that people are not priced onto the streets. Basically property owners can only increase rents in line with wage rises, which obviously tends to mean only when the economy is growing.
On the upside, residential rentals are very secure in Germany, tenants are predominantly good ones, and relatively easy to find. You can also buy German property with a tenant already in place, giving the property a guaranteed rental yield. German rental yields vary from region to region, property to property, with the average being 4-5% and 8% on the very few short term rental properties.
Investment funds and private entities have been buying into the stability and security of residentially let German property for several years now, but the prospect almost paled into insignificance, when new emerging markets became hot news.
However, this is changing this year. The international downturn knocked millions off property prices around the world, and because of this, the current investor and property buyer is doing so based on rental income -- even if their main aim is still capital appreciation.
Germany is perfect as a buy to let destination, obviously for the reasons mentioned above. Being a buy to let landlord in Germany is very similar to doing so in the UK -- even the yields are similar (ish). The key difference is that German property is a lot less expensive, and so the business can be set up with a lot less initial capital.
