Please note the following information before you apply

State subsidized housing is intended to help increase the supply of affordable housing in order to ensure affordable rent for the broad section of the population. The prerequisite for renting a state subsidized apartment is submitting a ‘Wohnberechtigungsschein’ (WBS) ( a certificate required to live in apartments that have been built using state subsidies) It is possible to receive a rent subsidy depending on your stage of life and your gross annual income.

Before applying for an apartment, please clarify whether you are entitled to a ‘Wohnberechtigungsschein’ with your local housing office. The Office for Urban Development in the Department of Urban Renewal and Housing is your contact for residents in the city of Regensburg,. You can reach the office via the following link.

For further information please click here.

Unfortunately, we cannot help you here. Only the local housing office can tell you whether you are entitled to a subsidy or not. Please contact the ‘Wohnungsamt’ (local housing office) before you apply.

You are welcome to apply here at any time with a ‘Wohnberechtigungsschein’ for a state subsidized apartment. We regret that we cannot take applications into account with a ‘Wohnberechtigungsschein’ and income level 1 (Vormerkbescheid) for the cities of Regensburg and Landshut. The apartments in these cities are allocated by each city individually using their own corresponding proposal lists. Unfortunately, we are not allowed to offer you a state subsidized apartment in this case.

If you have a ‘Wohnberechtigungsschein’ with income level 1 (Vormerkbescheid), please apply directly at your local housing office.

The KWS also has privately financed apartments. You do not need a ‘Wohnberechtigungsschein’ to rent a privately financed apartment.
