Martin Rütter Asks Fans for Help Finding 100 m² Flat in Munich

His Instagram plea highlights the scarcity of large central flats in Germany’s priciest rental market.

Overview

  • The TV dog trainer posted an Instagram appeal asking followers for tips after his Munich apartment search stalled, and multiple outlets reported the request on Friday.
  • Rütter said he needs at least 100 square meters, would accept slightly more, and prefers Lehel or locations within three to four kilometres of that neighbourhood.
  • He voiced frustration in the story, saying he had expected the search to be easier and that he feels such apartments may not exist in the city.
  • Reports cited market data showing new rentals in Munich average about €25.20 cold rent per square metre and a 37 percent rent rise over the past decade, which implies a minimum cold rent near €2,520 for 100 m² before utilities.
  • The case underlines how high prices and limited supply affect both ordinary renters and public figures, and it could prompt more public discussion about housing affordability in central Munich.
