Cancer -infected family in Berlin: loss of job, terminated, sublease contract and eviction lawsuit
They stroke each other, give each other. Mother (36), father (35), six children. The most recent eight, the oldest 16th a family who has lived in Berlin for ten years. Malika K. (36) already has eight cancer operations behind and her husband has given up his job to take care of her and the children. They live in a rental apartment in Frankfurt Allee, but their temporary sublease contract has expired. The landlord would like to renovate the house and ordered them to evacuate. Since you do not have a valid rental agreement, the job center no longer pays for your rent. The Kreuzberg district court has ordered enforcement, although the illness of Malika has existed for over a year. The family is now facing homelessness.
This heartbreaking story of a family with a seriously ill mother who is sold from her rental apartment in Berlin-Kreuzberg shows the hard realities of the housing market in the city. The rising rents and the scarce availability of affordable living space make families even more difficult to find stable accommodation in precarious situations. For people who rely on government support, like the family in this article, the situation can be particularly stressful.
With a rental price limit of 1550 euros/month for a four-room apartment, it becomes clear how high rents in Berlin are. If a family does not have a valid rental agreement in such a situation, this can lead to considerable financial problems, especially if state support depends on it.
The story also shows the human effects of this situation. The mother is seriously ill and needs a lot of support, but the family has difficulty finding access to medical care and adequate accommodation. The children take on adult tasks and fight to cope with everyday life while they also take care of their mother.
It is important that such stories come to light and that people are made aware of the challenges that many families face in Berlin. Solutions must be found to improve access to affordable living space and adequate support for people in difficult life situations.according to a report by www.bz-berlin.de
