Yeah right, living of Hartz IV is just great.
Historically Germans always preferred renting over owning a home.
It is pretty much impossible to evict somebody, and there is strict rent control. So there is no downside for the tenant, (believe me I know, I own a house in Heidelberg and there's hardly any profit in it. Just got lucky that the renter is building himself a house, so I can sell it fairly soon untenanted).
