Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masterarbeit aus dem Jahr 2022 im Fachbereich VWL - Immobilienwirtschaft, Note: 1,7, Fachhochschule Kufstein Tirol (International Business Studies), Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: The starting point for this thesis and the associated question were price developments observable on the residential property market as well as increased media reporting. Against this background, the following question was examined with scientific methods within the framework of this work: Is a bubble formation recognisable on the German real estate market and what regional differences can be identified in answering this question? As a first step, price-influencing factors were examined in more detail and the price development relative to annual rent ratio, income and construction costs was examined. In order to be able to identify price bubbles on the residential property market in a measurable and comprehensible way, the price development was analysed in a second step with the mathematical procedure according to Diba and Grossmann, which uses the Augmented Dickey Fuller Test. The procedure is based on the premise that the price of a good is related to its fundamental value. To examine the price development in the residential property market, the fundamental value used for comparison purposes is derived from the development of the rent price index, the index of average gross monthly earnings and the construction cost index. The house price index was used as a price indicator for residential property. With the help of the Augmented-Dickey-Fuller Test, the development of the various indices was examined and compared with regard to their degree of stationarity. This investigation was carried out for the overall German residential real estate market in the observation period 2010-2021 in order to obtain an up-to-date picture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bachelor Thesis from the year 2019 in the subject Economics - Macro-economics, general, grade: 1,7, University of Applied Sciences Frankfurt am Main, language: English, abstract: The main question which results through the theme is: “Are German real estates overvalued or can the development on the market be explained by macro-economic factors?” To be able to answer this question it is necessary to firstly define what a bubble is and further analyze general criteria which can lead to it. After that an analyzation of possible indicators which are linked to the two largest housing bubbles: the The Subprime Crisis in in the USA of the former decade and the housing bubble in Japan in the middle of the 90s will be done and a comparison of those crises will be given. Based on those findings the development of the current real estate situation of Germany and an overall evaluation of possible legal and political instruments which are supposed to protect from a pricing bubble will be done. The findings are based on literature review and include an empirical part with expert interviews when it comes to the risk of having a housing bubble specifically in Germany.

This book was released on 2015-11-17 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christopher Oertel studies the impact of public policy measures on the German real estate market and confirms the assumptions, which imply that a city can influence its economic position in relation to nearby cities in the short run by making use of this tax instrument. His analyses begin with an examination of the German residential real estate market from a consumption good perspective. The findings indicate that the home-ownership allowance had a distorting effect by capitalizing into residential real estate prices, although at lower than expected rates. Then the author studies the German residential real estate market from an investment good perspective. Investigating an important amendment of the German tenancy legislation, there is a positive, yet insignificant relationship between the tenancy law reform act and the development of the cap rate. The analysis is completed by focussing on the German office market and investigating how its rental levels and gross purchase prices are affected by changes in the municipal trade tax multiplier.

This book was released on 2022-09-01 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis in the subject Economy - Real estate industry, , language: English, abstract: The starting point for this thesis and the associated question were price developments observable on the residential property market as well as increased media reporting. Against this background, the following question was examined with scientific methods within the framework of this thesis: Is a bubble formation recognisable in the German residential real estate market and what regional differences can be identified in answering this question? As a first step, price-influencing factors were examined in more detail and the price development relative to annual rent ratio, income and construction costs was examined. In addition, the effect of the ECB's interest rate policy and the interplay between property prices, monetary policy and asset price inflation were analysed. Hereby it became apparent that the significant price increase for residential property since 2010, and especially accelerated since 2016, can be explained against the backdrop of the extremely low interest rate level and the considerable expansion of money supply. In order to be able to identify price bubbles on the residential property market in a measurable and comprehensible way, the price development was analysed in a second step with the mathematical procedure according to Diba and Grossmann, which uses the Augmented Dickey Fuller Test. The procedure is based on the premise that the price of a good is related to its fundamental value.

For the period under consideration from 01.01.2010 to 31.12.2021, a price bubble was not confirmed on the overall German residential property market.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inhaltsangabe:Introduction: The Internet as a communication medium is integrated in almost every process of today s business. Barely one company can ignore the Internet technology. Hence, it is not astonishing that nowadays the Internet has a great impact on real estate transactions. The question that arises is whether the real estate business is ready for this technology or not. This affects the company side as well as the customer side. Eventually both sides have to be familiar with the technology to accomplish the conclusion of the contract. Although many businesses still work the traditional way, which means the physical trade, the evolution obtains everyone. Still many companies deal their real estate avoiding the Internet. However the reality shows a different picture. More and more people get used to the Internet. Roughly everything is marketable over the Internet, so now people select the Internet likewise for selling or buying online or simply just to get a picture of the market. Hence, the companies have to catch up and adapt to the market change. The idea of integrating the Internet into real estate business has an important background: it is imperative to increase the number of customers. Technologies like Internet help for instance smaller companies to reach customers all around the globe. An opportunity like this was unimaginable a few years ago. In detail it means that a real estate company needs at most premises an own or public server and is able to create a business on an entire virtual platform. Increasing the number of customers and decreasing the costs through saving time and effort has a huge impact on the business development. Although the online real estate industry has not reached an optimum level in Europe, several countries are pushing the development forward. Despite all this the process starts slowly. The change from a face-to-face business to a virtual commerce causes different dilemmas. Beside technical issues the whole selling and buying process has to be overworked and this costs vastly money and time. The change of business is influenced by economic resources, technological progress and meeting the customer s expectations. Germany and the United Kingdom both show very active real estate markets. Given a comparative, high and dense population, the total volume of real estate transactions is fairly high. Additionally the residential properties are interesting for both sides and hence the trade among each other is [...]

Download or read book The market for German student housing written by Marvin Greim and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2018-03-28 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2017 im Fachbereich BWL - Offline-Marketing und Online-Marketing, Note: 1,3, Hochschule Aschaffenburg, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: This assignment examines the German market for student housing. It will define student housing itself as well as different types and will mainly focus on the development of the student housing market in the past, its current situation and the future forecast. In the period of low interest rates, real estate has become a popular alternative to investing into stocks and other investments. The real estate investment market is well known for its classical core asset classes of-fice, industrial, retail and residential. However, there are still many non-core asset classes which are known as niche sectors. For the last few years one of these niche sectors, known as „student housing“, has increased in popularity in the German investment market. Student housing became one of the most popular non-core asset classes due to the increasing number of students and a bottleneck in the devel-opment pipeline, which resulted in a distinct need for student accommodation in recent years. Investors are especially attracted to the common view of low risks due to high demand and the scarcity of suitable sites in cities and the good yield prospects. Furthermore, political interventions such as rent capping limit and rent control, which were introduced in recent years, have shown no effect on the growth of rents. As a result, rents in student housing are permanently rising. However, it seems as if the student housing market will face some challenges in the future which could lead to a decrease in popularity.

Download or read book Ongoing Catch Up Potential for German Real Estate Returns written by Daniel Piazolo and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 10 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Germany has attracted substantial real estate investments from abroad within the last years. Furthermore, German investors have also invested again a higher percentage of their capital earmarked for real estate at home. Therefore it has to be examined whether the German real estate returns have justified the investments. The answer is twofold: Yes and No. Yes, investments in German property have earned higher returns compared to other countries in some years. No, looking at the average return for almost two decades, the German market has not turned out to be a good investment. Compared to returns in other markets, German returns have been low. Yet they have proven to be less volatile in comparison to other markets. Consequently, one can argue that there is less risk involved at an investment within Germany - relative to other real estate markets. However, the investor has to consider that the German market is very diverse across sectors and across regions. To judge and benefit from regional developments and opportunities, investors are well advised to research the local markets rigorously. Overall, there are good arguments for the view of a still highly attractive German real estate markets - compared to other asset classes and compared to other countries.

Download or read book The valuation of Real Estate in Germany written by Stefan Hocke and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2006-04-06 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diploma Thesis from the year 2006 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, grade: 1,0, Heilbronn University of Applied Sciences, language: English, abstract: Real estate is one of the most important assets. This is expressed in Germany’s national accounts where net construction assets are 86% of total net fixed assets.1In addition the usage of real estate belongs to the basic needs of people. Consequently the disposition of real estate regarding construction and acquisition contributes strongly to economical development of net stock of fixed assets within a national economy. However, in the valuation of property particular difficulties appear that complicate rational capital disposition. Basically, property valuation methods are difficult to apply or even fail in respect of rental income forecasts, assessment of risk and market orientation. Other influential factors originate from the heterogeneous character of properties and the complex structure of real estate markets. This work aims for the examination of codified and international property valuation methods in terms of their theoretical structure, practical application and critical aspects that influence a precise property valuation. In the following, principles regarding property valuation are introduced. This is followed by a detailed description of codified and international valuation methods. Subsequently all methods are applied on a real world valuation example that illustrates the methods and their applicability. Afterwards some decisive valuation methods are critically reviewed regarding their methodology, applicability and marketability. In summary the reader is given a classification in form of a matrix that is based on the aforementioned criteria. Further, some favourable components are identified that are complemented with recommendations for the use in practice.
