In Göttingen and the surrounding area, you can draw on the full range of real estate-specific location advantages: The university city around 100 kilometers south of Hanover currently has a population of around 135,000 and impresses from a cultural perspective, among other things: the historic old town boasts popular sights such as St. John's Church, the Gänseliesel fountain and the old town hall, making it a destination steeped in history. Meanwhile, those looking to be close to nature will find what they are looking for in Göttingen's city forest, the botanical garden or the idyllic parks and green spaces throughout the city.

Göttingen also has all the advantages of a modern city in terms of infrastructure - shopping facilities, medical care and educational institutions at all qualification levels make Göttingen a practical living environment with a wide range of options. The presence of major employers such as Sartorius AG, Friedrich Zufall GmbH and Georg-August-Universität Göttingen also contributes to this, opening up promising career options.

Typical rental properties in Göttingen: Apartments and more!

The spectrum of properties for rent in Göttingen covers a wide range of property types, with something to suit every requirement: The most frequently rented properties are apartments, which are available almost everywhere due to the historical development of the city - from particularly easily accessible city center locations to the outer outskirts. In addition to the possible centrality, the structural variety also speaks for this property category: in addition to the classic rental apartments in multi-storey apartment buildings, luxurious penthouse apartments or lofts with strong character are sometimes also offered, which are suitable as both primary and secondary residences. Our real estate team will be happy to inform you about your current options!

You can also rent a spacious detached house, a semi-detached house or a comfortable villa in Göttingen and the surrounding area. These properties are particularly impressive due to their generous amount of space and are often equipped with a garden, terraces or conservatories. Typically, houses and villas for rent are more likely to be found in suburban residential areas or detached properties in the outer city area, as there is more space for such properties here. Occasionally, however, high-quality city villas or houses are also offered in more central locations, combining the advantages of a rental apartment with the amenities of a larger building category.

How rental prices, supply and demand are developing in Göttingen

Renting in the Göttingen area, as in many other parts of Germany, is currently becoming more popular; demand is increasingly outstripping the available supply of houses and apartments. Not only the recent rise in interest rates, but also the change in lifestyle - for example in the form of the trend towards single households or the desire for less long-term commitment to a fixed place of residence - is becoming increasingly noticeable, especially among younger generations. As a result, the general rent level is rising continuously despite the rent cap and the cap on rent increases.

How high rents are in practice varies considerably from location to location - the Engel & Völkers Market overview page for Göttingen provides detailed information.

In summary, a typical price range of 8 euros to 13 euros per square meter can currently be stated for rental apartments, while houses range from 9 euros to 12 euros. In the villa segment, average rents of between 10 and 13 euros per square meter can be expected.

Take advantage of Engel & Völkers Göttingen's expertise and market knowledge to rent your dream property in Göttingen at a reasonable price.
