Germany

The housing market in Germany remains tight, especially in major cities such as Munich or Berlin. When looking for suitable apartments/houses, you have to be quick but also have background knowledge. German landlords regularly ask for a so-called “Selbstauskunft”. This self-disclosure is a questionnaire in which mainly the following information is asked for:

• Personal information about yourself, such as the name of the prospective tenant, single or married, children etc. 
• Details on accessibility, such as e-mail, current place of residence 
• Data on occupation, such as student/self-employed/work for employer x
• Other information e.g. previous tenancies etc.

Make sure you have this information prepared to make the process faster for the landlord.
