Housing Story

 I sat last night and watched the public TV news program 'PlusMinus' (Channel One). The key segment of the news piece show was a seven-minute report on this odd trend.

So....a number of well known companies around Germany have latched onto what they consider a major problem....affordable housing in urbanized areas.

Their solution?  They are funding/building apartment buildings on their own...for their employees.

PlusMinus folks surveyed a number of DAX (the big companies) and found five companies which were actively in the real estate market.  I'll admit....it's not a significant number, but it shows a trend.
