Tenancy Law

Anyone who rents or lives for rent will soon be confronted with tenancy law. Can the rent be reduced because of construction noise? By how much? Who has to pay for which repairs? Is a rent increase permissible? There are hundreds of typical tenancy law problems German tenancy law protects the tenant from many things, but the landlord is not without rights either. Deadlines and formalities must be observed by both parties.

Rental agreements for commercial properties are often concluded with very long terms. This makes it all the more important to formulate contracts carefully and with foresight, for example with regard to guarantees for certain qualities and suitability, maintenance obligations, rent adjustments and protection against competition.
