Demographic Outlook and the Implications for Real Estate Markets

Tobias Just

A chapter in Understanding German Real Estate Markets, 2017, pp 25-40 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The fertility rate in Germany has been very low for 40 years, at more or less 1.4 children per woman. In the past, the resulting deficit of births could be offset partially with immigration. The population in Germany shrank by almost 800,000 between 2003 and 2010, and demographers expect the coming decades to bring more contractions and a marked ageing of society. However, in the last few years, the number of inhabitants has been rising, thanks to strong inward migration from southern and eastern Europe and particularly due to a strong inward migration of refugees. This chapter will outline the most important demographic trends for Germany, as well as the regional differences, in order to derive the most important implications for real estate markets.
