#short-term-leases

Anyone who has tried to find an apartment to rent long-term in Germany's big cities knows that it isn't easy even with an above-average income and impeccable credentials. Browse through online property portals and you will likely find hundreds of apartments on offer in the most sought-after districts of cities like Berlin, Munich and Hamburg. But look more closely and the majority of those will be short-term, furnished rentals charging well above the standard rates landlords can ask for open-ended leases on unfurnished apartments.
