Hello everyone,
I am 41 years old and have an offer to purchase the rental apartment I currently live in myself in Stuttgart (98 sqm in the best location) from the owner.
We have currently agreed on a purchase price of 620,000 EUR, which should be a normal price for the location.
Only the usual additional purchase costs would be added, but no broker fees or the like.
The monthly homeowner’s association fee is about 100 EUR – each owner forms their own reserves.
The rent is currently 1250 EUR plus gas and electricity.
This is relatively low; a rent of 1750 EUR (18 EUR/sqm) would certainly also be conceivable.
However, the situation is such that I/we will certainly not live in this apartment much longer (rather 2-3 years).
After that, we would like to move to a larger property (larger condominium, semi-detached house, or single-family home).
This new project would certainly cost >1 million, rather 1.5 million EUR in the Stuttgart area.
My sole monthly basic annual salary is currently in the five-digit range (net); a significant annual bonus is added.
At the moment, my equity would be enough to buy the above-mentioned apartment directly – but then the equity would also be "used up."
The question is:
What is the smartest approach given the fact that a change is imminent?
1. Buy the above-mentioned apartment at all?
2. Then sell or rent out the above-mentioned apartment when moving to a larger property? How can it then be incorporated into the next project?
3. Finance with the entire equity or via credit or a mixture of both so that the installment possibly equals the future rent or similar?
Any other tips?
Thank you very much.
Best regards,
