Lause bleibt
We, the tenants of Lausitzer Straße 10 and 11, are a household collective that has grown over decades. We are political and artistic initiatives, NGOs, craftspeople and creatives, families and shared homes. Partnerships, friendships and neighbourhood initiatives have been born in our floors and corridors. In December 2016, we became aware that plans were in place to sell the buildings, which are owned by the Tækker Group. In the exposé put together by the estate agent, a price of at least €20 million was placed on the property – an 800% increase on the original purchase price. The Tækker Group had paid the city – then governed by coalition of the Social Democratic Party and The Left – €2.3 million for the buildings back in 2007.
Deutsche Wohnen & Co Enteignen
After years of speculation and skyrocketing rents in Berlin, Deutsche Wohnen is calling for an end to the madness: We want to go through a referendum to socialize around 240,000 apartments from real estate groups. Article 15 of the Basic Law creates the possibility for this.
Padovicz WatchBlog
It is enough! Tenants defend themselves against the business conduct of the corporate conflict around Gijora Padovicz. Since the 1990s, he has been buying large-scale residential buildings in Berlin, renovating them, often with public money, and throwing old tenants on the street. Time and again tenants have teamed up against Padovicz, time and again there have been successes against this big player in the real estate industry. We want to support these well-fortified tenants with information and bring them together.

Zwangsräumung Verhindern
The alliance “Prevent eviction” is an alliance of neighbors and political activists and supports tenants who fear that they will not stay in their apartment. In order to prevent evictions, we seek talks with the owners, conduct public relations and press work, organize demonstrations and rallies, but also resort to forms of civil disobedience such as sit-ins and blockades.
