Summary
Survey: Rent for many difficult to afford: What stops the purchase. For a bare third (29.7 percent) of the 1,109 tenants, it is even at least 40 percent. Just under half (48.5 percent) of the 1,109 tenants that YouGov representatively surveyed for Postbank can afford their housing costs “just like that”.
Furthermore, Almost every eighth tenant (12.2 percent) lives according to his own estimate about his financial circumstances. Almost one in two (45.8 percent) of the total 2,016 respondents believe that home ownership is most likely to be attainable through inheritance. In the comparison survey 2023, more than 44 percent said this. “Housing is becoming a financial imposition for more and more tenants,” says Ulrich Stephan, chief investment strategist for private and corporate customers at Deutsche Bank, to which Postbank belongs.
In addition, Majority of tenants (around 60 percent) have to raise 30 percent or more of their household net income to pay their housing costs, according to the survey. Only a good third (34.1 percent) of the tenants surveyed at the beginning of July said they could “afford their housing costs well”. Why the desire for home ownership is great and what keeps many from buying.
