Rentals run on rules

The rent side, in three lines

  • Deposits cap at three months’ cold rent (§551 BGB) and must sit on a separate savings account.
  • Mietpreisbremse caps new leases above local comparative rent in tight areas; Berlin’s Mietspiegel sets the benchmark.
  • Modernization may be passed on at 8% of cost per year (§559 BGB) — check the Anpassung history before you underwrite.

Qualitative anchors only — live numbers come from the official city Mietspiegel, never a hardcoded table.

Developers

The builders behind the pipeline

Municipal landlords, premium Bauträger and boutique owner-run developers — tracked from Handelsregister to handover.

Oberkassel and Oberbilk sit at opposite ends of the price ladder. The Königsallee core is retail; people actually live in Bilk, Bilk-Süd and the river terraces.

North Rhine-Westphalia transfer tax applies. sivrce will not treat Düsseldorf as a suburb of Cologne.
