16 The Körper family in their old apartment ... What help did you get from GWG München? Manfred Körper: They supported us in many things, for example with the approval procedure, with the housing authority, and in lots of personal meetings. Roswitha Kirchmayr: Mr. Bauer will organise the move, should you be wanting a removal company. If the tenants wish to do the move themselves, they will receive 500 euros upon return of the old apartment. If any furnishings need altering, we will send a joiner. Fredi Bauer: Not only that, but all supply points are taken care of by our firms, for example for a washing machine, dishwasher, etc. We are in the former kitchen/living room of the Körper family’s previous apartment. It has panelled walls and a corner bench facing the sideboard. On the table is a map of the city. Manfred Körper points at a street on the map, saying, “that’s where we’re moving to, a ground floor apartment.” Then turning to his wife, “your mother lives here.” Brigitte Körper nods, “I could grow old in that apartment. We took one look and knew that was the one.” Even if you move, the memories remain. Brigitte Körper: Of course. I was born in this apartment and I grew up here. My grandmother lived here and so did my mother, and now we live here. Which is why we want to stay nearby and with GWG, because it has all been such a positive thing living here. You could say it was your house ... Brigitte Körper: ... Yes, I suppose you could. My son also rents his apartment from the GWG. His opinion on tenant care is just the same as ours and he would never move into another area. We have green spaces, a shopping centre, the underground. We don’t really need a car. Manfred Körper: Another nice thing about the new apartment is that it also has a garden. Do you look after the garden yourselves? Manfred Körper: We have a big lawn with some tall trees, but we are don’t intend to make any more flowerbeds. … but you used to have them? Brigitte Körper: Of course, we had to share the garden with three other tenants, but at some point the others lost interest in the garden because they were either too old or didn’t have the time. So we paid a little more rent, and bit by bit we increased the size of our garden. We hardly needed to go on holiday anymore. Manfred Körper: We came back from town, went into the garden, set up the barbecue and relaxed. Brigitte Körper: It was idyllic! What is the sense of community like in the neighbourhood? Brigitte Körper: It is good but it used to be a lot stronger. It was like we were all one big family. The one neighbour knew if the other was ill and would go round to check on him and bring him what he needed. But that has changed. Many have moved away or died. We are the last ones. Young people don’t want to live in such an old building. Manfred Körper: The young ones used the old estate as a springboard. They moved into a cheap apartment, got married, and then looked for somewhere bigger. Brigitte Körper: But there are still a few old tenants, like my mother for example, who is 83. And now we are part of the old group. If we can move into another building that is just as wonderful, then we will have reason to be pleased.
Everyone used to help each other? Manfred Körper: Everyone. The ones from the front entrance and the ones from the rear entrance. It was a good community. And nobody felt left out. Were you able to choose your new apartment yourselves? Manfred Körper: We found one that we liked and Ms. Pittroff made sure that we got it. The ladies from GWG München really took us under their wing. Have you met any old friends in the new house? Manfred Körper: Yes of course there are few others who were rehoused. I remember them from before. Brigitte Körper: One old friend gave me a hug and said how happy she was that we were reunited. Ms. Kirchmayr, how do you support the tenants? Roswitha Kirchmayr: In all matters, from placing applications with the Office for Housing and Migration and with the various social security authorities if required. But we also give practical support and advice in organising the new apartments. We always do our best to find the right apartment for everyone. Nobody is sent to live in an apartment or in an area that they don't like. And the Körper family is just one of many success stories. The Körper family have now moved and are getting used to their new apartment. ... and in their new one 17
