Housing Price Index Q3 2019

The rents and purchase prices for the third quarter of 2019 from the empirica housing price index are available.

While purchase prices continue to rise sharply - across Germany, the purchase prices for owner-occupied flats are rising five times faster than rents - the curves for rents in the core cities repeatedly point downwards or stagnate at a high level. Is this a sign of the end of the cycle?
