How does the buy-or-rent calculator work?

On the one hand, you enter your previous monthly gross rent. On the other hand, enter the expected purchase price for the future house or condominium. Be sure to summarise the actual price of the property here, including any conversion and renovation costs. Then add the amount of the planned mortgage. In most cases, this is around 80% of the purchase price at the time of purchase. Our calculator will show you whether buying or renting is more favourable for you. On the other hand, we calculate your monthly savings potential for the cheaper versus the more expensive option.

You don’t know the purchase price yet?

If you do not yet have a specific property in mind and therefore no clear idea of the purchase price, our maximum purchase price calculator will give you the answer. It shows you how much your dream home may cost.

Frequently asked questions

This depends on the one hand on the amount of your previous rent and on the other hand on the purchase price as well as your own funds and the negotiated mortgage interest rate. In addition to the purely financial aspect, there is also the emotional aspect – living in your own four walls is priceless.
