From Hildburg Bruns
Tenants often only get an apartment in Berlin if they swap. A comment from BZ editor Hildburg Bruns.
Sounds like a broken record, which the expert calls for. Enable more attic conversion. Go ahead with infrastructure, schools and new tram lines. Adequate subsidies, which also reflect the increased prices. simplify approval processes. make building land available.
Requested x times, heard x times. Too little has happened.
The campaign mantra build, build, build fizzles out in the face of inflation, multiplied prices and a lack of building materials. Tiles are a big problem right now. Incomprehensible.
Not only in Berlin. But dragged out for years, the housing shortage in the attractive capital is particularly hard to come by. It is incomprehensible why every single red-green-red MP is not rethinking.
It’s dramatic when tenants almost only get another apartment if they enter into an exchange transaction.
