The result of me and a friend looking for a 2-3 bedroom apartment in Berlin. The city is currently undergoing a housing crisis with the supply being no where near enough to satisfy the demand. Thanks to government regulations the prices are still relatively affordable, however have increased significantly compared to the wages.

I switched places in Berlin an year ago and had to apply to 220 offers with a portfolio of 22 pages. Its harder to find a place to live, than to find work.
