Friedrichshain:
Friedrichshain is a part of Berlin's borough of Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg. From its creation in 1920 until an administrative reform in 2001 it was a freestanding city borough. Formerly part of East Berlin, it is a central borough, adjacent to Mitte, Prenzlauer Berg, Kreuzberg and Lichtenberg. The district is named after the Volkspark Friedrichshain, a vast green park located at the north border to Prenzlauer Berg.
After the fall of the Berlin Wall in November 1989 and German reunification the following October, Friedrichshain began to develop a reputation as a young, dynamic district.
Alongside the neighboring districts of Mitte, Prenzlauer Berg, and Kreuzberg, Friedrichshain is now considered one of Berlin's most fashionable areas, and is home to numerous design and media companies including MTV Central Europe. It is known for its many bars, clubs, pubs, and cafes, concentrated in the vicinity of Simon-Dach-Straße and Boxhagener Platz.
Berlin:
The capital of Germany is dynamic, cosmopolitan and creative, allowing for every kind of lifestyle. East meets West in the metropolis at the heart of a changing Europe.
After experiencing a staggering drop in housing prices since the early 90s, Berlin’s property market is springing back to life. No other property market in Europe offers such undervalued property prices and a solid rental market.
Rental Potential:
The trend goes to properties which are situated in medium/good locations near the town centre.
Berlin: 88% of the habitants are renting properties - 12% are property owners.
Germany has a strong rental culture and tenants tend to live in a property for many years. Therefore, they treat rented property as if it was their own, and this works to the advantages of the owner. Property is let without furniture so tenants must provide their own. This situation might seem a good prospect for investors looking for regular income while they wait for their property to appreciate.
