Estate Report: Cheaper mortgages will not reduce interest in rentals

Rental housing will continue to grow, and a possible drop in mortgage rates will not stop it. Recently, there has been increasing talk of a possible drop in mortgage rates. However, according to Ondřej Křivanc, Executive Director of the Fidurock Group, even this would not fundamentally change the high demand for rental housing. The reasons are mainly structural: rapid population growth, migration to cities, and high initial costs of purchasing one's own apartment. Even if rates did fall, the gap between rent and mortgage payments would remain. According to him, rental housing will therefore remain a sought-after solution and a stable investment. Thanks to professional management, high-quality renovations, and an emphasis on efficient use of space, Fidurock achieves a return of 6 to 8% per year. Projects in Prague and Brno are enjoying great interest, with often more than half of the units occupied even before the official launch of the offer.
