Application for an "Assisted living" apartment for senior citizens

Please note the following information before you apply

„Assisted living for senior citizens“ is a form of housing for elderly people which is intended to enable them to lead an independent and healthy life style in their own home despite the increasing need for assistance. The independence of the residents is the main focus. KWS provides apartments suitable for the elderly. Our working partner Caritas provides the care services that are agreed upon for the individual needs of each person.

If you need more information on assisted living, we recommend our homepage or the homepage of the Caritas association. Our customer advisors are of course also available at any time for a consultation with no obligation.

Our apartments in „assisted living“ are specially tailored to the needs of older people. There are no thresholds in the apartment. The area, especially in the bathrooms, is carefully planned with appropriate dimensions to allow sufficient room. An elevator is part of the standard equipment in the residential complex. Our professional caretaker service takes care of jobs such as house cleaning, snow removal, etc. We would be happy to send you further information on the condition of our apartments – also with a sample floor plan. Please feel free to contact our customer service directly.

There are two types of „support services“. The key part of our basic service is a home emergency call system in connection with an emergency call center and an in-house technician on call. Depending on the location, additional services are included in the basic service or other options can be individually booked. In any case, the services are clearly specified. We would be happy to provide you with any further information. Feel free to contact us directly.

Please understand that the apartments for „Assisted Living“ are exclusively intended for senior citizens. Unfortunately, these apartments cannot be allocated to students, young couples or families. The „assisted living“ housing form is designed to ensure the independence of the residents. These apartments would not be suitable if more extensive nursing care was needed. We would be happy to advise you individually in a non-obligatory consultation.

Our apartments are only available for rent. We basically do not offer any apartments for sale.
The apartments in „Assisted Living“ are usually intended for 1-2 persons. They are between 30 and 80 m² and are usually designed as 1-, 2- or 3-room apartments.
An apartment in „Assisted Living“ can be occupied by a maximum of 2 people.
At some locations we can also offer state subsidized apartments in the „assisted living“ housing form. In this case, the prerequisite for renting is a ‘ Wohnberechtigungsschein’ (WBS) ( a certificate required to live in apartments that have been built using state subsidies).
We hope you will understand that we are unable to make a statement regarding your being entitled to a ‘Wohnberechtigungsschein’ or not. Please contact your local ‘Wohnungsamt’ (housing office) before you apply.

Our overview page shows you all current locations of „Assisted Living“. We may also have new apartments in the planning or under construction at other locations. So please feel free to take a look at our new building projects.

KWS normally rents out apartments without a kitchen. However, the kitchen of the previous tenant can often be taken over. Such a takeover though has to be clarified between the previous tenant and the new tenant and is not included in the rental contract.
We regret that we do not accept ‘deposit insurance’ or ‘rent deposit guarantees’.
Unfortunately, we are not able to offer apartments with a garden.
Normally, our „Assisted Living“ apartments have a balcony or terrace.
