Germany’s house price statistics are of moderate quality. The best source of house price time-series is BulwienGesa AG. They have prices of flats, and rents, from which yields can be computed. General economic data can be extracted from the Federal Statistical Office and the Bundesbank, see their Statistics | Time Series Database.
