Rental price development in Leipzig: Sven Schwarzat gives a forecast
The development of rents in Leipzig is a topic that is likely to be of particular interest to both landlords and tenants in 2025. In recent years, the Saxon metropolis has developed into an attractive location for companies, students and young families. This has also had an impact on the real estate market and therefore on rental prices. But what trends can we expect to see in 2025 and what does this mean for the various players on the market?Sharp rise in rental prices in recent years
Rents in Leipzig have risen continuously in recent years. According to current data, the average net cold rent in the city is now around EUR 10 to 12 per square meter. Prices are rising particularly in popular districts such as Südvorstadt, Plagwitz and the city center due to the high demand for apartments. The coronavirus pandemic has reinforced the trend towards a change in housing behavior, with many people now preferring larger apartments or even houses so that they can work from home.
Another feature of the Leipzig market is the increasing professionalization of the property management sector. Companies such as Schwarzat Capital GmbH are expanding their portfolios and playing an increasingly central role in the provision of high-quality living space. Sven Schwarzat, Managing Director of Schwarzat Capital GmbH, emphasizes: "We see that Leipzig has a promising future for both investors and tenants. Our strategic investments are aimed at enriching the housing market and at the same time meeting the needs of tenants."
Growing demand for rental apartments
A further increase in demand for rental apartments is expected over the next few years. Leipzig is one of the fastest growing cities in Germany. This is due to strong immigration, particularly from other federal states, as well as the high birth rate and the high quality of life in the city. Studies show that more and more people want to live in Leipzig, which will lead to a further increase in demand for living space.
The city administration has already taken measures to meet this demand. For example, numerous new construction projects have been initiated in recent years to alleviate the housing shortage. At the same time, efforts are being made to renovate existing buildings to make them more energy-efficient and thus increase the stock of high-quality rental apartments. Sven Schwarzat emphasizes: "The demand for modern and well-equipped apartments will continue to rise in 2025. That is why we are continuously investing in the development of new buildings and the renovation of existing properties."
What landlords and tenants should know in 2025
For landlords in Leipzig, the rental price trend means that they will have to prepare for rising costs and the associated challenges. Politicians could continue to introduce stricter regulations on rent control and rent increases in the coming years. It is therefore advisable to find out about legal changes at an early stage and to keep a close eye on rental price developments.
Tenants should be aware that prices in popular locations could continue to rise, while potentially cheaper apartments can be found in less sought-after areas. It is therefore advisable to regularly sound out the market and find out about subsidy programs to reduce rents.
For Schwarzat Capital GmbH, it is important to continuously monitor the market in order to make targeted investments in promising projects. Sven Schwarzat explains: "We focus on long-term strategies and not only want to offer our tenants a good apartment, but also create a sustainable tenancy."
Conclusion
Rental price trends in Leipzig will remain an exciting topic in 2025. Both landlords and tenants will have to adjust to rising prices and an increasingly regulated market environment. Companies such as Schwarzat Capital GmbH are focusing on sustainable developments and investments to meet the growing demand for rental apartments. Tenants should remain flexible and actively take advantage of the opportunities on the market, while landlords should prepare for the challenges of the coming years at an early stage.
