Particularly in the commercial sector\u2014such as nursing, skilled trades, logistics, and catering\u2014it is often not the job that causes them to fail, but the lack of affordable housing.<\/p><p>The German housing market is tight. In many regions, there is a difference of between \u20ac8 and \u20ac12 per square meter between existing rents and new rents. New construction projects are few and far between, while demand continues to rise. This situation is also having an increasing impact on the recruitment of international skilled workers.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-dc5e49d elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"dc5e49d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Expensive temporary solution<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f2b5555 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"f2b5555\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Newly arrived skilled workers often have no choice but to rent furnished temporary accommodation.
