Surprise, surprise. A multi-billion dollar real estate company like Deutsche Wohnen, the proposed rents cover as the downfall of all that is Good is, should not surprise anyone. Incidentally-conspicuous, the company has set on Wednesday a question mark behind a multi-billion investment in Berlin real estate and construction, explicitly because of the cover. So far, So expectable.

But the? Almost at the same time, a housing, announced a cooperative, their abandonment of a construction project on the southern edge of neukölln – and also tried the rent cover as justification. The reasoning is similar in its structure to be suspicious of the PR departments in the private construction industry: Because of rent increases in the coming years, lack of the cooperative, the money for the new building project.

Limanbet xmlns="" class="article odd"> apart from the fact that so far there is no evidence for this statement exists: in The case of not used the bold yet much-touted claim that the rent cover loss at the end of the tenants. Because the proposed apartments are to be built according to current plans, one way or the other: if it's not from one of the other interested cooperatives, then from the country.

where does the unholy Alliance between the exposed representatives of the Baukapitals and the nice residential clubs next door? Also, the mitigation of the draft law with regard to the moderate increase in low, the Front has smash Rent. Obviously, the government intervention really clash with the traditional accounting model of some of the cooperatives.

The surprise, in turn, less. Because in spite of their social ambitions: cooperatives also act in a free housing market, where without rubles not diggers roll in. You can build neither the dynamics of land prices ignore the still air, and love.

The Anti-cover-sayings from the cooperative corner is not disgust, only those received prior to the date of the rent stops, a rent increase. You can, however, show with brutal clarity the weakness of the idea, to turn by means of government intervention in a free housing market in a grab-bag for the Living.

Need an active and widespread detachment of the housing from the free market would rather. Cooperatives, which on the side of the great reaI estate developers, can not be a part of this solution.
