*Originally in German

Real estate companies are making fat profits in Berlin with our rising rents. We will not accept this any longer: We want a referendum to socialize more than 240,000 apartments owned by Deutsche Wohnen, Vonovia, Akelius & Co. Article 15 of the German constitution makes this possible.

With this socialization, we want to take twelve percent of Berlin's rental apartments out of the hands of speculators and make affordable rents possible in the long term. No more fat dividends for shareholders that have to be paid out of our rents. No more displacement of people who can no longer afford their apartments. Only by returning housing to non-profit management can we end the housing crisis.
