Housing cooperatives in Berlin

The way to a cooperative flat takes time: waiting lists and requests are common, with waits that can last years, and some housing cooperatives are not taking anyone at the moment. Vacant flats are usually published on their own websites, and some also use portals such as ImmoScout24.
