Service for you
The rent index provides an overview of the local comparative rents for apartments and single-family houses in Erlangen. The information makes it easier for rental contract parties to make decisions in rent matters and is intended to prevent disputes and court proceedings as far as possible. Thus it contributes to the objectified argument over rent prices.
With the rent index you can determine local comparison rent. He does not serve for the price fixing. The local comparative rent includes only the pure net cold rent in euros per square meter. "Operating or ancillary costs" are not included. The basic net rent is calculated as a function of the living space. The influence of the type, equipment, condition and location of the apartments and single-family houses is taken into account in the determination of the local comparative rent with percentage additions and deductions.
Scientific background
The rent index was prepared according to recognized scientific principles and recognized by the Erlangen City Council in the meeting on October 28, 2021 as a qualified rent index. He replaces from this day the previously valid Mietspiegel 2019.
The data were queried in the context of a survey of tenants*innen to the cut-off date of January 1, 2021. According to the legal requirements, new contracts and rent increases of the last six years were taken into account. In the evaluation, information on about 1,700 tenancies of the privately financed housing construction was included.
Legal permissibility of rent increases
On the legal permissibility of a rent increase request (existing rents) or the legal permissibility of the rent level for re-rentals (Mietpreisbremse), the rent index makes no statement.

A special feature of the Erlangen rental housing market is the rental of mainly large apartments close to the city center to several individual tenants. In addition to a private room, the rent includes the use of common rooms such as kitchen and bathroom.
The rent index does not describe these rental relationships, since only self-contained apartments were used for the calculation. Nevertheless, in order to be able to offer at least an orientation guide for the usual rent level of single rooms in Erlangen, individually rented rooms were also taken into account in the rent index survey.
Due to the small data basis, we would like to point out that the figures published here are not part of the qualified rent index and only serve as orientation.
Results:
The size of one's room influences the rent level to a small extent. Therefore, there is no distinction by room size. For the same reason, we do not publish rents per square meter.
Location | lower border | mean | upper limit |
---|---|---|---|
City center or walking distance up to max. 1000 m from the city center | .250 | 303 | 329 |
over 1000 m walking distance from downtown | 236 | 280 | 305 |
Distance to downtown refers to the extent of downtown as described on page 12 of the current rent schedule. Walking distances can be determined on a suitable (online) map.
As with the completed apartments, there is a lower and an upper value in addition to the average value. In these price ranges are two-thirds of the rents for single rooms, this is the same as the "local comparative rent" To classify a property within the range, you can consider:
- Facility characteristics of the apartment .
- Room size
- Quality and quantity of sanitary facilities .
No, it only takes into account residential space. Information on rent levels and the supply situation for commercial space (production space, office and retail space, warehouses, etc.) can be obtained from the Economic Development Department of the City of Erlangen.
The following values were collected as part of the rent index survey. They are for orientation purposes and are not part of the rent index. Two-thirds of the rents for garages and parking spaces are between the lower and upper limit.
lower limit (percentile 15) | average (median) | upper limit (percentile 85) | |
---|---|---|---|
outside parking space | 15 € | 24 € | 40 € |
Parking space in garage, parking garage or underground parking | 30 € | 50 € | 60 € |
Qualified rent indexes must be updated after two years and new ones created after another two years. The next update will come in October 2023.
