How to find a flat

In Germany, flat hunting is organised privately. You answer an ad, look at the flat and then apply for the flat. The landlord then decides who gets the contract. Sometimes flats are rented already furnished or a small discount (purchase price) has to be paid for the furniture. You answer an ad, look at the flat and then apply for the flat.

Beware of scammers!

When looking for a flat, you should be vigilant and careful, because in the competitive housing market there are sometimes attempts at fraud. Do not transfer money in advance and always make sure that you sign a serious rental contract. Read the advertisements carefully and look at the small print of the contracts.
