Built in Berlin, for people moving to Berlin.

I'm Loie Favre, a Swiss-Canadian business owner with years of experience in communications and running multiple companies — always with a track record of happy customers. I moved to Berlin 15 years ago, and like most newcomers, my first run-ins with the rental market were brutal.

I sat through mass castings where 40 strangers walked through the same 500 sqft flat. I lost out on places I loved without ever knowing why. I bounced between sublets, Zwischenmieten and grey-zone WGs because the "real" market felt impossible to crack from the outside.

After years of trial and error I finally figured it out — a tech-driven way to spot the right listings the moment they go live, paired with the exact communication and application tactics German landlords actually respond to. Today that approach gets answers 98% of the time.

Apartment Express is the system I wish I'd had on day one. Our team speaks fluent English and German, and we act as your bridge between you and the German real estate and rental market — handling the visits, the paperwork and the back-and-forth so you can focus on actually moving in.
