Housing cooperatives in Munich
With these 23 housing cooperatives you become a member, not just a tenant, and buy shares for it.
Many housing cooperatives in Munich are not taking anyone from outside at the moment, or only put members and their relatives on their lists. The others advertise vacant flats on their own websites or take requests.
