To buy now or maybe never - that is the question. And the answer is becoming increasingly difficult for many who dream of owning their very own home. This is hardly surprising, since, in addition to the sharp rise in property prices, the increased interest rates on mortgage loans, high inflation and the generally unstable state of the global economy are also unsettling.

We cannot solve global problems, but we can help and show you at least what concerns the property prices: In many cases it still makes sense to buy despite high purchase prices for houses and apartments. This is especially true for "expensive places" like Berlin, Munich, Hamburg, Frankfurt am Main and Stuttgart.
