I had the same consideration. However, I find the point of profitability more important in the discussion.
If the rental yields over 4%, the investment seems worthwhile. Now the question arises whether I should do it or not. Especially since the financial outlay is quite high on a monthly basis. If both rents fail, I can no longer pay it or have to cover it from the savings reserves, which were also specially accumulated due to the risk of rental loss. Even the bank thinks that a longer complete vacancy would be rather unusual for the region. Of course, only I can make this decision myself, but I am happy to take opinions from experienced homeowners with me. Also with regard to the financing constellation. Forty percent of the net income seems quite high to me. And 75% of the rental income, on the other hand, seems reasonable. How do you see it?
Best regards,
