RENTAL PROPERTY SEARCH

Rent an accessible apartment by checking routes and daily use.

Accessibility must fit the individual and their daily routine. Entrance, lift, doors, bathroom, kitchen, thresholds and surroundings should therefore be part of the search profile.

WHAT MATTERS

Narrow the search before enquiries begin

A productive search does not begin with as many listings as possible. It begins with clear criteria. Region, budget, timing, intended use and exclusion criteria should make suitable options easy to identify and weak matches easy to remove.

The term accessible is not always used consistently. A viewing should therefore consider actual dimensions, movement areas and the complete route from the street into the apartment.

PRACTICAL CHECKLIST
  • Check the step-free route from access to the apartment
  • Ask for lift dimensions and door widths in advance
  • Inspect the bathroom, shower and turning areas
  • Include parking and public transport access
  • Record individual mobility aids as specific criteria

FREQUENT QUESTIONS

accessible apartment rental: key questions answered

Is the label wheelchair accessible sufficient?

No. Suitability should be checked against actual routes, dimensions and individual needs.

Where access, permission and the agreed scope allow, visible measurements can be documented.

Which surroundings matter?

Gradient, surfaces, public transport, shops and the route to parking or the entrance may be decisive.
