    I’m moving from the U.S this summer and I found your videos and they have been really helpful. It makes me excited even though I am a little stressed on finding a flat. Even short term has been somewhat difficult!

    Good Luck but I have to disagree. Berlin has changed and especially the flat situation makes it a nightmare. I can’t advice it currently and also everyone more coming here will make the situation worse 😢A lot of people got driven out because landlords realized they can rent out to Expats willing to pay every price

    Hi Olivera, do you have to get an Anmeldung for every 6 month - 1 year flat?

  • @OliveraDarko

    I believe that anything up to 6 months is not considered “permanent stay” so you don’t have to but if you stay at a place for over 6 months then you should.
