That's all nice and all, but tenancy rights are kind of moot, if you can't afford a reasonably sized apartment or even find anything at all.
No, not really. They aren't moot.
Welcome to the UK where the same rental would be twice the price without any security or rights to your place.
Renting is fucked basically everywhere, but in Germany it's less fucked than most places, if you can believe it.
