Pleased to Meet You
Bespoke relocation has been our only business since 2015. Berlin has been our only city. Every case is handled personally — by a team that has been doing this long enough to know the difference.
Better than the generic, the rushed, the impersonal. Berlin is one of the most interesting cities in Europe — and arriving here should feel like the beginning of something, not the end of a bureaucratic ordeal.
Since 2015, we have guided corporate professionals, diplomatic staff, families and individuals through every aspect of relocating to Berlin. In that time, not one client has left without a home. That is not a boast — it is simply what the work demands.
"Berlin rewards those who arrive prepared. Our job is to make sure that they do."
Every client works with a dedicated person — not a call centre, not a rotating roster of assistants. You speak with someone who knows your case from the first conversation to the day you collect your keys.
The majority of our cases are Berlin-based. Over the years we have also assisted clients relocating to Munich, Hamburg and other German cities — when asked by clients we trust.
Where specialist expertise is required, we draw on a carefully selected network — guides with extraordinary local knowledge, certified legal counsel, insurance advisors, and partners who have earned their place through years of reliable work. They are brought in where their expertise adds the most. You will not notice the joins.

— and the team behind every arrangement
The name owes a quiet debt to a certain Ms. Adu.
Over the years we have assisted professionals and families arriving from every corner of the world. Each case is different. The city is the same. We know it well enough to make either feel at home.
The apartments that never appear on ImmoScout. The landlord who only rents to clients he trusts. The building manager who takes a call on a Sunday. These relationships are not built in a year. They are the result of a decade of showing up, delivering, and being remembered.
Our network of estate agents, landlords, property owners and Berlin insiders is what makes the difference between finding an apartment and finding the right apartment — at the right moment.
Long-standing relationships with Berlin's most effective agents — including those who do not advertise publicly.
Direct contacts built on ten years of reliable referrals. When a good apartment becomes available, we hear about it first.
Specialist partners for all insurance matters — health, liability, household — advising professionally and cost-efficiently.
Years of curated Berlin addresses — restaurants, bars, clubs, hotels, wellness — included in every package. Available separately on request.
We maintain a blacklist of agents and landlords and work with certified legal counsel to review contracts. Fraudulent listings and unreliable counterparties do not reach our clients.
You work with Boris — not a coordinator, not an assistant. Every case is handled with the same attention, regardless of budget or company size.
In over a thousand cases, we have never failed to find a suitable home. This is not a marketing claim. It is a record we intend to maintain.
We do one city. That focus is deliberate. Deep local knowledge — neighbourhoods, landlords, regulations — is what makes the difference.
