Found this in Facebook. 1300€ for 28sqm apartment! I can’t even imagine what should be an income for a family with kids to afford a suitable apartment! At this rate, the salary should be directly credited to the landlords

Munich is the most expensive city in the country and the landlords have lost their mind there a long time ago. The prices in the city proper make living there impossible for most. And it’s not just rent.
This is not a normal rental. It’s overpriced furnished short term rentals taking advantage of clueless desperate foreigners. There is a reason why this is posted in English.
This is a fully furbished apartment. You pay for the furniture and some landlords are very creative with their pricing.
There are laws of course but if you don’t enforce them, this stuff happens.
According to the official rental index, this flat’s rent should be ~ 650-800€ gross (including utilities), this price also includes the kitchen and bathroom. The difference to that 1300€ is basically the surcharge for the furniture that is, without even seeing the apartment, most likely way too much.
Avoid.
The average net (!) rent for this area and flat size (it’s just an average area, nothing posh) is 20-23€/sqm. Remember: The smaller the flat, the higher the price per sqm.
Cheaper than in Prague (CZ). We already have 16sqm “apartments”.
High price is because it’s furnished, which usually means it’s a recently renovated or Neubau Studio, especially with underfloor heating.
Normally you can find cheaper unfurnished studio’s for like €700–800, but the real problem is actually getting one. It’s super competitive, and landlords usually have tons of applicants, so they just pick whoever fits best.
I pay roughly the same (in Moosach) for about 70m2, this a very bad offer
FOR 28 SQM??????
And it’s not really central. Nah that’s bullshit.
For a small 1 room apartment anything above 1.000 sqm should be a No-Go
Honestly i havent found a single apartment here on Facebook in Germany that wasnt a complete scam 😂
Berlin is very similar at the moment sadly
As reference, I don’t leave too far away from that, and pay 1280 for a 55m2 apt
Maybe it’s just me but if I’m seeing a million emojis in the posting I doubt
Scam
I love how everyone is finding this crazy while this is the average in my country.
That is at least 400€ more expensive than it should be
That is so expensive for that area for a studio. And be aware that that area is almost a food desert on Sundays. I lived by OEZ for five years. I paid less in warm rent for a 3 room flat.
I am paying 500 warm in Berlin. It was unfurnished though. No kitchen
