Re:Berlin buys thousands of apartments from corporate landlords by javajosh on Saturday September 18, 2021 @01:05PM (#28577668)
Perhaps you missed the word "commercial" - which means renting to businesses, rather than individuals. Covid has increased WFH a lot and many small businesses are going virtual, and even larger businesses are scaling back their physical offices. This has the net effect of driving down demand for office space.

It's a bit confusing since you discuss commercial properties between two paragraphs discussing housing rentals. It isn't specifically clear that your comment about low demand only applies to commercial properties.
