Berlin Becomes First German City With a Rent Cap

01.06.2015
Berlin has become the first city in Germany where rent control legislation has come into force in a bid to put the brakes on some of the fastest rising rents in Europe.
Landlords in the capital are now barred from increasing rents by more than 10% above the local average. Such controls were already in place for existing tenants but have now been extended to new contracts. Reiner Wild, managing director of the Berlin Tenants Association, says “The rent ceiling is very important for Berlin because the difference between the rent paid in existing contracts and new contracts is so high.”
