The plans for housing policy from the exploration of the SPD, the Greens and the Left have met with criticism from the tenants' association and the expropriation initiative.

Messages from Saturday spoke of disappointment and delaying tactics.

Berlin - "There is almost nothing to be seen of the promised social awakening and progress in living, renting and building," said the Berlin tenants' association.

“Instead, a standstill is to be expected to a large extent because no solutions are offered for the massive problems,” said Managing Director Reiner Wild.
