There are also various offers on Kleyerüchteben.de, such as a room near the A8 and Legoland or a room in a Kurhotel in Bad Füssing. Rooms at the Hotel Like Apart were offered in Erlangen – the 24 square meter units cost just over 100,000 euros and have been sold for some time.

Buy and rent the hotel apartment – explained the principle
The concept is not widespread, but quite simple: private investors buy individual hotel apartments and thus achieve continuous income. The advantages are initially obvious: If you have a hotel room in a well -running company, you do not have to worry about managing the property. The hotel operator takes care of care, renting and maintenance, as explains the investment platform Zinsbaustein.de.
As a rule, things work like this: private investors acquire a hotel apartment and possibly also shares in community property, such as the lobby, fitness room or restaurant. Afterwards, the owner leases the hotel room to the hotel operator, who takes over the administration and releases profits to the owner, explains Domininvest.com.

FinanzBaustein.de names two other advantages of this strategy: There are often reduction in rental security that also secure income for vacancies. In addition, rents can be regularly adapted to the market level because the rental price brake does not apply to hotel rooms.
However, there are considerable disadvantages and risks. One of the main reason why this strategy is not assumed to be massive is the strong dependence on the operator. What happens if it changes or has to register bankruptcy? Zinsbaustein.de also indicates location risks and possible high renovation and renovation costs that can come to owners.
The topic was recently discussed in the Reddit Forum on Real Estate Investments. One user summarized it: “Short and scarce, finger away. Strong dependence on the operator. Unclear capacity utilization of the hotel, etc.” At the same time, however, it was pointed out that it can make sense for certain properties, such as in top locations and with large operators. As with all investments of this kind, interested parties should obtain comprehensive information and get advice from experts. (fhz)
