The right starting point
We discuss your requirements, the type of tenancy you need and the practical choices that affect your search. Furnished accommodation can suit an initial stay; an unfurnished home may be the better choice for settling in.

A search shaped around your life
A good search begins with the way you want to live. Your budget, commute, preferred neighbourhoods and moving date give us a starting point. We help you distinguish the essentials from the preferences, so that each viewing has a purpose.
Suitable opportunities
We explore all available avenues and assess suitable apartments against your brief. Local knowledge helps us consider the neighbourhood, transport connections and everyday details alongside the property itself.
A prepared application
We help you organise your application documents and present your circumstances clearly. We coordinate viewings and communication with landlords or agents, and explain the next steps as opportunities develop.
From the first conversation to the handover
Define the search
We agree your priorities, discuss the budget and set out the scope of support.
Prepare and view
We help prepare the application, identify suitable homes and arrange viewings. Attendance and video options are agreed around your circumstances.
Consider the offer
We help you understand the practical terms, coordinate questions and arrange specialist contract advice where needed.
Prepare for moving in
Support can include the handover, recording the condition of the apartment and arranging utilities, internet and registration.
The search depends on your requirements, availability and landlord decisions. We discuss these factors openly and keep you informed as the search progresses.
Already in Berlin, or still abroad?
We support both new arrivals and people moving within the city. If you are abroad, we can prepare the brief and documents before you travel. Some landlords require prospective tenants to attend in person, so we agree a practical viewing plan early.
Before we begin
Can you help with both furnished and unfurnished apartments?
Yes. We discuss the length of your stay and your requirements before deciding which type of accommodation to focus on. Temporary accommodation and a longer-term search can also form part of the same relocation plan.
Can the search begin before I arrive?
Yes. The initial consultation, document preparation and search can begin remotely. Whether a particular viewing or application can proceed without your attendance depends on the landlord and the property.
Which parts of Berlin do you cover?
We work across Berlin. We help you assess suitable areas using your commute, budget and everyday priorities, rather than limiting the search to one neighbourhood.
How long will the search take?
There is no fixed timeline. Budget, requirements, availability and your application profile all affect the search. We discuss a realistic approach at the outset and review it as the search develops.
What does the service cost?
We provide a proposal based on the scope of your search and the support you need. The agreed services and fees are set out before work begins.
