Why residential real estate remains attractive in uncertain times

In an environment of geopolitical uncertainty, higher energy prices, inflation and rising government debt, residential real estate is gaining in importance as a real, high-yielding and comparatively stable investment. While German government bonds are losing their self-evident status as a “safe haven”, long-term trends such as rental potential and recovery costs are supporting the asset class; private investors are also acting with a longer perspective. Property quality, energy efficiency, micro-location and diversification remain decisive – short-term crises do little to change the long-term positive picture.
