How high can the rent be in Köln?

The allowable rent amount in Köln depends on various factors. These include primarily the rent index, which indicates the typical local comparative rents for different apartment sizes and locations and serves as a guideline. Additionally, in many areas, such as Berlin, the rent control law applies, which states that the rent upon re-letting may not exceed more than ten percent above the usual local comparative rent. The condition and features of the apartment also play a role, as modernized or newly built apartments often justify higher rents. Rents can vary significantly depending on the location within Köln, so it is advisable to consult local tenant associations or official city portals for the current rent index.
