After the collapse of all kinds of real estate bubbles in the wake
of the global financial crisis the private rental sector has been
rediscovered by researchers and housing policy in many countries.
Following the bursting of various mortgage bubbles everyone seems
to be aware now of the disadvantages of an extremely high rate of
homeownership. Conversely, the benefits of a diversified and
flexible private rental sector are increasingly recognized. In this
discussion the German private rental sector can serve as a model,
not least because of its sheer relative size. Apart from that, the
German private rental sector provides very different groups of
tenants with very different housing qualities and provides for long
term security of tenure. The basic question is: Can private renting
be an alternative to living in their own home for broad layers of
the population? Against this background, an outline is given on the
current German housing system, the structure of the housing market
and policies and reforms that have shaped the private rental sector
(rent setting, dismissal protection, taxation, subsidies, housing
allowances). A critical perspective on the matter is taken,
barriers to a well-functioning housing market and private rental
sector are identified and proposals for reform are presented.
The Flipping Book is a simple to read explanation of the basics of
real estate investment. This book goes through the basic principles
of buying a property and turning it over for a profit, also known
as flipping. It also has more advanced tactics for competing
against others at the trustee auctions. The purpose is to give any
person enough information to make an informed decision when buying
properties and attempting to work in this particular business.
