Comment on Facing Renoviction? Here's Why

Carighan@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

Something that is difficult to do over here because the longer a tenant has been in a rented place the more say they get over living there.

Effectively once it’s been 5+ years, you no longer get to evict them. You can ask nicely if they’ll leave, otherwise you’re SOL.

Where’s “over here?”

  Going by their comment history, Germany.

  Hamburg in Germany. I think we got even more tenant friendly laws than the other federal states though.

That seems like a very good reason not to let any renters stay over five years.

  It’s scaling. There’s no hard cutoff. The longer a renter has been in, the more difficult to cancel their contact. The idea is that the longer someone has lived there, the more their life will have become reliant on being in that area, and hence uprooting them is less and less sensible.
