Anna Meier hat durch die Mietpreisprüfstelle erfahren, dass ihre Miete um etwa 400 Euro zu hoch sein könnte, was sie dazu veranlasst, ihren Vermieter um eine Senkung zu bitten, während die Stelle generell für Mieter mit Verdacht auf überteuerte Mieten Unterstützung bietet und in den letzten Monaten viele Fälle mit signifikanten Überhöhungen geprüft hat. #RentControl #BerlinHousing #TenantRights
