Home finding
Temporary accommodation and longer-term apartment searches, with support for viewings, applications and handovers. We discuss housing requirements early, so the search fits both the employee’s needs and the agreed budget.

Corporate relocation in Berlin.We help your people settle.
A new role comes with enough to think about. We help international employees and their families prepare for Berlin, find a home and organise the practical details of their arrival, in coordination with the employer’s relocation brief.
Discuss an Assignment
Practical support for the employee. Clear coordination for the employer.
Each move has its own priorities: a start date, a company policy, a housing budget and sometimes a family making the journey too. We agree the scope with you and build a plan around the employee’s circumstances.
Arrival administration
Support with registration and practical arrangements such as utilities and internet. Immigration-related assistance can be included in the agreed scope, with specialist input where required.
Family and neighbourhood support
School and Kita searches, neighbourhood orientation and everyday planning can be included for accompanying families. We consider the employee’s commute alongside the family’s routines.
An agreed brief, followed through locally
Agree the assignment
We clarify the authorised services, budget, dates and coordination arrangements with your HR or mobility contact.
Speak with the employee
We discuss housing needs, accompanying family members and the practical preparation needed before arrival.
Coordinate the move
We organise the agreed local support and provide updates at key stages, keeping relevant decisions with the appropriate person.
Support settling in
We follow through on the agreed handover and arrival tasks, so the employee knows what has been completed and what remains.
The scope, communication arrangements and fees are agreed for each assignment. Employee information is handled with care and shared only as appropriate to the relocation.
For a direct assignment or a relocation partner
We work with employers and international relocation partners requiring local support in Berlin. An assignment can focus on home finding or combine several services. We adapt to the agreed responsibilities and coordinate with the people already involved.
Before we begin
Can we arrange support for a single employee?
Yes. We can discuss an individual move as well as a series of assignments. The support is defined around the employee’s circumstances and the employer’s brief.
Can the employee’s family be included?
Yes. Housing requirements, school or Kita searches and neighbourhood orientation can be included in the proposal. We clarify priorities and the authorised scope before starting.
Can you work alongside our existing relocation provider?
Yes. We can provide local Berlin support within an existing relocation arrangement. Responsibilities, communication and authorised services are agreed with the referring partner.
Can preparation begin before the employee arrives?
Yes. We can begin with the consultation, housing brief and document preparation, then plan local appointments around the employee’s availability.
How do you quote for a corporate assignment?
We prepare a proposal based on the authorised services and circumstances of the move. The scope and fees are agreed before the assignment starts.
