"Moving our family of five to Berlin on short notice seemed an impossible task until we found von Wrede Relocation. They immediately understood our needs and shepherded us through local immigration requirements, a very tight short term housing rental market, and equally challenging decisions on childcare, all under an urgent timeline. They went above and beyond to find us a home, place our children in a wonderful bilingual kita, and get fully registered with local authorities. vWR far exceeded our expectations and we unequivocally recommend their services to any family looking to move to Berlin hassle-free."

"von Wrede Relocation helped me obtain a residence permit in Germany. The process is very complicated, and they helped me negotiate every step with aplomb. Documents, paperwork, letters of support, scheduling appointments: vWR made sure it all got done and proofed everything to make sure that all was correct and complete. von Wrede Relocation was nothing less than outstanding."

J. Palatella, author and editor

"I would highly recommend von Wrede Relocation to any newcomer who needs to relocate. We were faced with a Kafkaesque situation, but Jessica's perfect professional knowledge and empathetic approach helped us overcome it. We will always remember her with gratitude. Moving to a new country can be quite overwhelming if you don't know what to do. With von Wrede Relocation it will be a smoother process and your bureaucratic pain will be eased!"

Büşra Akman

"What might have been forbidding, confusing and time-consuming was more like going to a spa - Jessica is ridiculously organized, pro-active, instantly responds to emails, thinks of every tiny detail and knows, from her years of experience, how to manage the finicky ins-and-outs of the various systems (residency permits, real estate concerns). If I had not met and worked with Jessica, I would not consider buying an apartment in Berlin; but because of her guidance and knowledge, I feel I am in abundantly good hands, and can dare to wade into this otherwise complex, bewildering world."

"Bringing together work and family is a challenge - all the more if you are abroad in a country with a foreign language. My wife and I are both academics and we had 3 boys who needed child care and schooling for our year in Berlin. This was no easy undertaking in Berlin's highly competitive school and daycare landscape, but von Wrede Relocation managed to organize it all in their calm and efficient manner, coordinating everything, and managing all communication with respective institutions and authorities. We are grateful for the great support - I do not know how we would have managed without von Wrede Relocation!"

"I had a great experience with von Wrede Relocation. The team was incredibly supportive and responsible throughout the entire process, making my first days of relocating to Berlin much easier. They truly understood the challenges I was facing and worked hard to help me settle in. Thanks to their efforts, I was able to find a very suitable flat that perfectly met my needs. Their dedication and commitment to making the process smooth and stress-free were impressive. I highly recommend their services to anyone moving to Berlin."

"von Wrede Relocation did a great job for us, finding and implementing a way to correct a mistake I had made in obtaining documents from the United States."
