Living for help

Unused living space is made available at low cost in return for help with everyday living.

As a housing provider:

Anyone who lives within a reasonable distance of Erlangen city center (reachable in approx. 30 minutes by public transport) and has at least one room available for single use.

As a tenant:

Students or people in training who urgently need a room and would prefer to provide practical help instead of paying rent.

Rule of thumb:

1 m² of living space = 1 hour of help per month (additional costs such as heating, water, electricity must be paid)

For example, housework or gardening, providing company, animal care, childcare.

Note: Nursing or medical services are excluded!
