tbh this is a very bad example.
$300 (247€) for 570 square-foot (53m²) are just not realistic for a city like Berlin. The real price for such an appartment (in that district) is around 700-800€.
Not to be "that guy" with the unpopular opinion here, but I'm not even sure if the landlord can even cover the costs for the apartment from what she's paying.
- jashmatthews 8y agoThe landlord knew exactly what he was getting into buying a tenanted property rented by someone on WBS social housing. Using your sister to evict your existing tenant is dodgy. I have zero sympathy for trying to game the system and getting caught out by your sister inconveniently dying.
- sqidyyy 8y agoI couldn't find any information in the article that it's WBS social housing. It says "located in a newly fashionable district" which doesn't sound like social housing.
- jashmatthews 8y agoIt's not. I missed the 32 years bit and assumed it was WBS because she's receiving long-term disability. Either way, you can't simply buy a building and evict the tenant in Germany. The landlord knew what he was getting into.
