Premium Rental Apartments Are Currently in High Demand
An Excellent Opportunity for Financially Strong Investors to Purchase Real Estate
After a turbulent period, the real estate market in Vienna is stabilizing. Since the European Central Bank (ECB) announced its first interest rate cuts in May, the demand for owner-occupied apartments has been rising again – and rental properties are more sought-after than ever. The reason: “Despite market stabilization, the hurdle to homeownership remains too high for most property seekers,” explains OTTO Immobilien expert Sonja Kaspar. As a result, this target group continues to favor renting over buying, with an increasing demand for larger apartments. Higher rental prices, even beyond EUR 2,000, are still affordable for dual-income families and affluent individuals. “We are seeing significantly more inquiries in this segment,” says the expert.
Less effort, higher returns
A market situation from which financially strong investors particularly benefit: By investing in a larger unit, they can currently rent out their property more quickly and enjoy lower administrative effort in the long term. “Those who rent out a larger apartment instead of several smaller ones only have one tenant, who typically stays longer. This simplifies logistics while offering higher returns,” explains Kaspar. Furthermore, such an apartment often aligns better with personal living preferences compared to the classic investment property with just two rooms. This creates ideal conditions for future personal use or to offer the apartment to children down the line.
