In Sweden, lots of mortgages are adjusted every three months, and I would assume (though not certain) that a majority of mortgages are fixed on no more than two-three years.

German banks have always been extremely conservative when it comes to mortgages. It’s hard to even get a mortgage when you don’t have a secure job and bring a substantial down payment (like 20-30% of the house/apartment total).
