Home swap & apartment swap in Berlin, Germany

Berlin is the city with the most swap offers on FreeHomeSwap.com. The listings mainly consist of apartments where the owners themselves live – often older buildings with high ceilings and balconies, but also terraced houses and detached houses with gardens on the outskirts of the city.

The listings are spread across the whole city: from the Bergmannkiez in Kreuzberg, through Prenzlauer Berg and Friedrichshain with the Karl-Marx-Allee, to quieter areas in Zehlendorf, Friedenau, Steglitz, Spandau or Treptow-Köpenick. Most apartments are just a few minutes’ walk from an S-Bahn or U-Bahn station; you’ll hardly need a car in Berlin.

Swaps almost always take place simultaneously: whilst you’re staying in Berlin, the Berliners are on holiday at your place. People are looking for all sorts of places – the seaside in southern Europe, the Baltic Sea, the mountains in Austria and South Tyrol, but also Munich. Some apartments have cats, which will be looked after during the swap; you’ll find details of this in the relevant listing.
