IREBS Standpunkt Nr. 86

20.02.2020 6699 Dr. Benjamin Schirmer and Dr. Julius Städele, LL.M. (Cambridge)

Law passed to regulate rental housing market in Berlin

Dear readers,

the housing market in Berlin has shown a remarkable upswing in the last few years that has invited domestic and international investors and has raised worries, whether this momentum could be unhealthy (both from a allocative and a distributional standpoint). The Berlin coalition has now proposed a strong law, how to regulate the rental market in order to improve affordability in Berlin. In this „Standpunkt“ two lawyers present the major changes.

Best regards

Tobias Just
