Tenant Rights: Digitalizing Shared Kitchens in Germany
As a tenant in Germany, you may face specific questions when a shared kitchen is to be digitalized. This text explains in plain language which tenant rights apply, which duties landlords have, and how to act in case of defects, data protection issues, or new usage rules. You will receive practical steps for documentation, tips for communicating with building management and meeting deadlines, and examples of wording for defect notifications. We also show when a local court (Amtsgericht) becomes responsible and which legal bases you should know. The aim is to give you confidence in negotiations and possible legal steps, even without legal training. The guidance also covers data protection for access controls, apportionment of operating costs for shared use, and practical complaint templates for landlords.
