Germany pairs strong urban housing demand with a large stock of ageing office space in and around city centres.
Conversion can unlock housing in supply-constrained cities like Berlin, Munich, and Frankfurt, where coliving serves students, professionals, and new arrivals.
Changing a building's use (Nutzungsanderung) generally requires a building permit (Baugenehmigung) and must comply with local land-use plans. Germany's tenant protections are strong, so the operating and lease model needs to be structured carefully.
Rules vary by city and change over time. Treat this as a starting point and confirm the current requirements with the relevant local authority before you underwrite a deal.
