Vonovia SE VNA
Bulls Say, Bears Say
Bulls
Vonovia’s core rental business is supported by a severe housing shortage in German urban areas that is expected to persist for decades. This imbalance ensures virtually full occupancy and high collection rates (98% and >99% in 2025, respectively).
Bears
Vonovia fails to earn its cost of capital, and its rental portfolio’s net initial yield is lower than its marginal cost of new debt.
