Could be 9 or an even ten, depending on how you count. But absolutely no more than 12, never ever more than 13 in fact.

In Germany, cars. We pay taxes in car ownership. Thing is so, tax debt or default doesn't lead to the state taking you property away (ultimately yes, but then you are at default for a vwry long time and probably bankcrupt anyway). It

Not in Germany. Unless your house is a castle or something, I hear those are a money sink.

You probably find one idiot landlord, sure. In general so, landlords are in the business of being a landlord for making money. And guess what, they do! Because the only people stupid enough to get maths behind renting and real estate owners

Because all those other costs are calculated into the rent? And if not, they quite often allow a landlord to simply increase the rent.

All of those costs are factored into your rent so. In fact, those rennovation works are a reason for a landlord to increase rent on existing leases. So you pay for those, always. What you don't pay so, ia rent for property you own. And

Germany didn't even exist in 1750. We did try to add territory so twice, didn't get us anywhere. I either blame the airforce or submarines, since those exist Germany failed to win a single war.

Yeah, people still think that having a mortgage means the real estate is owned by the bank. Well that is just not the case. Repaying your mortgage is a combination of interest payments and repaying the debt. It goes to zero eventually. A re
