Stop searching for apartments. Let us search for you.
Canary checks the rental market around the clock. When a flat that fits you shows up, you hear about it in minutes, with a plain-word explanation of why it fits and what's still unclear.
For anyone flat-hunting in Germany, starting with Berlin: newcomers, locals moving house, students and young professionals.
How it works
You set up one search for the flat you want — rooms, budget, areas. When a matching flat appears, Canary sends an alert within minutes.
Open the alert to see the listing merged into one page, read the reasons it fits and the concerns worth checking, then follow the link back to the original listing to get in touch yourself.
