However, it should be noted that the German legal system not accept clauses that differ from German law. That means, if it is statured in the contract that the tenant is obliged to renovate and the clause is contrary to German law, it has the consequence that the clause is invalid and the tenant is not obliged to renovate. Such occurrences are often highlighted by the media.

It is also common that the tenant is guaranteed to rent the object for a longer time because the owner does not have a need for the apartment himself. Later on the situation is changed and the landlord does not longer want to stick to his word because a need for his own has emerged.
