The term "rent index" comes up immediately when it comes to rent increases. How do you read the rent index correctly? Where do you get it? And how do you use it to effectively increase the value of your apartments? And how do you correctly calculate the rental potential during a purchase inspection and thus avoid expensive mistakes? In the video, we look at a real rent index and calculate the local comparative rent. There are also a few tips and tricks from our practice. Last year alone, we carried out more than 130 rent increases for our clients as part of our 'AMS all-round carefree service.

It is fundamentally important - also for the tenant - that adjustments are made regularly so that you as the landlord can, for example, compensate for price increases for tradesmen and materials and maintain the property and keep it in good technical condition. The official inflation is "only" 2%, but the real perceived rate is higher. This is also and especially true for tradesmen's prices. Therefore, price adjustments of 2% pa are in principle not sufficient to compensate for the real cost increases. Often, the rents of previous owners have not been increased for years and are still far below the local level. When you buy, however, you also pay for this potential rent increase - it is included in the purchase price - and you then have to actually increase the rent in order to make it profitable for you. That sounds simple, but of course there is no tenant who is very happy to pay more rent. First of all, it is money that flows away for the tenant every month; a sensitive topic that can quickly lead to arguments. The following topics are discussed in the video: 1. When and why do you need a rent index? Classification in the overall process of a rent increase and different types of rent increases, e.g. due to comparative rents, modernizations, operating costs. 2. What does a rent index actually look like? Concrete calculation using an example apartment. We show you step by step how to calculate the local comparative rent based on the rent index. 3. How the rent increase works and important deadlines and capping limits. An interesting bonus tip at the end that can really bring you a lot of money.
