I had the same sort of life in the south too. Rent hikes has really fucked that lifestyle over. I blame the swiss for turning the whole german housing market into their buy-to-let playaground

I live in Heidelberg, Germany.
This house is worth 3-4x more.
But my landlady is a little special. She lives in a hippie commune in another country, is dealing with depression and simply didn’t want to deal with the house at all.
So that was the deal, we could live there for cheap, I fix stuff myself and never bother her with anything.

Fun fact: My landlady lives in Switzerland, too.
But I’ve found a new place with the same price per square meter now.
Just a couple km further out, on a hill overlooking the Rhine.tetris11@lemmy.ml 2 weeks ago
You’re going to be doing that every 6 years or so as others do the same, and as more landlords clock onto where future tenants are going.
The south is becoming very business friendly and that new rail line is only going to increase more swiss investment.If you can, start looking to buy a small apartment somewhere.

The plan is to buy the apartment I now rent, when I’ve been there for a year and know that the neighbors are OK.
I know the owners, and they’re not going to sell to an investor.
I’m not going to leave the country.
