QUICK ANSWER
The core question on this page, answered directly.
An apartment at OneHaven is your own furnished apartment with your own door, kitchen, and bathroom, available from six months in Frankfurt, Berlin, or Stuttgart. Furniture and an equipped kitchen are included everywhere. At Eastside, you pay rent incl. utilities from €940, including internet and a utility prepayment, settled once a year; at Roomments, from €1,140 all-in; in the Berlin buildings, rent incl. utilities starts from €780, with electricity and, depending on the building, internet added separately. You can rent from abroad: inquiry, viewing, documents, and lease are handled digitally, and viewings take place on site or live by video. There is no upfront payment; you only pay after you have signed. Depending on the building, you pay the deposit in installments or before move-in, or you can use a bank guarantee or rent guarantee instead.
Safety first
CHECKED BEFORE YOU MOVE IN.
Every building has to pass all five checks before we offer it to you. You see a real apartment in the same category, not stock photos. No upfront payment, you only pay after you sign.

Arrive without the paperwork maze
WE TELL YOU WHAT IS ALREADY CLEAR.
Almost everyone moving to us from abroad asks these three questions. We answer all three here clearly.
WHAT DOCUMENTS
DO I NEED?
After the viewing, you upload your ID, proof of income, and tenant self-disclosure digitally. It only takes a few minutes, and the transfer is secure. After that, your local contact person will get in touch with you.
CREDIT CHECK: ALWAYS REQUIRED
We always need a SCHUFA or Creditreform report. An employment contract from abroad alone is not enough; you need a contract with German address registration. Ask about this early, so you know where you stand before you inquire.
CAN I REGISTER
HERE?
Yes. You rent the apartment for residential use, with a digital lease in your name. The address is your registered address from day one.
POSSIBLE IN EVERY BUILDING
Address registration and a registration certificate are always possible with us. This applies to all buildings in Frankfurt, Berlin, and Stuttgart.
WHAT
LANGUAGE?
Your inquiry, documents, and lease all go through the same digital process, no matter which country you start from. The website is currently in German, and an English version is in progress.
GERMAN, ENGLISH, FRENCH
Your team will respond in German or English, and in French on request.

Why OneHaven exists
TEN YEARS ABROAD.
A HUNDRED ARRIVALS.
“I know what the first evening in an unfamiliar city feels like. Your suitcase is still in the hallway, and the apartment decides whether you really arrive or just have a place to stay. That’s exactly why OneHaven exists: apartments we would move into ourselves. So home doesn’t take weeks to feel like home, but starts on the first evening.”
Benjamin Oeckl Founder of OneHaven, with Sahra Oeckl

Frequently asked questions
RENTING FROM ABROAD
Seven questions international tenants ask us most often.
All questions and answersYes. You inquire online, view it live by video, and then upload your ID, proof of income, and tenant self-disclosure form digitally. You sign the lease digitally. Depending on the building, you get the key digitally or at handover. You do not have to fly to Germany to complete the rental. No upfront payment: You only pay after you sign.
How it works in detailYou inquire and receive a personal response as quickly as possible. The application takes just a few minutes, and you can view the apartment on site or live by video. When a specific apartment is available depends on the building and the date, so we do not list a number here.
Yes. Address registration (Anmeldung) and a registration certificate are always possible with us, in every building. You rent the apartment for residential use, with a digital lease in your name, and the address is your registered address.
Not on its own. A SCHUFA or Creditreform report is always required, and for that you need an employment contract with German address registration. Talk to your contact person early, so you know what you need to prepare before you inquire.
Your team will respond in German or English, and in French on request. The website is currently in German, and an English version is in progress.

At Eastside and Roomments, you also do not set up your own electricity or internet contracts. At Roomments, both are included in the rent. At Eastside, internet is included, while electricity, water, and heating are covered by the utility prepayment and settled once a year. In the Berlin buildings, electricity is extra; at Haus Marzahner Chaussee, internet is extra as well. Bring your suitcase, that is all.
