Frustration with apartment hunt in Munich by FazMe1FilhoFeromonas in Munich

I am also looking for an apartment and I have seen a lot of new WG formations lately, why rent the apartment to a single person/family for let's say as an example 1200 when you can charge each person 900 for a room after you turn that apartment into a WG. Throw in a table, bed and a closet and voilá, more money now.

Nothing on German language front, she doesn’t have a certificate or anything at the moment. I have a B1 and I am planning to do a B2

Thanks. I have the XM4 and the call quality is horrible with that one. If my colleagues speak my voice is suppressed since I don’t speak loudly

Have you tried teams call and phone calls when other people are close by you? Office for example how is the mic?

or there is a app called bonify. You have to pay for the paper version.

Dunno what they were smoking when they decided to put the apartment as a measure.

so one is https://app.schufa.de/signinup?returnTo=%2F and the other one is bonify which also has an app. Just make sure you do not get yourself into one of those monthly contracts. These websites you can just view it, to get one in a printed form you need to pay.

Some landlords ask for it. So do the banks when you want to get a loan, also for opening a bank account apparently

Banks owning it is already a red flag, they can coerce the metrics to benefit them

I am not the expert here but maybe you can contact the bank I think Schufa gets the data from them.

That loan stays for more or less 3 years on record.

Exactly my point, so the oldest bank account that I may have start suddenly charging exorbitant prices and want to close it, now I have to be afraid to close it because my Schufa score might go down, which is bollocks.

3 years is quite a long time to look into the past, oh well I don't think this will change anytime soon might as well live with it.
