Can You Rent Out RVs and Containers As German Housing?

 NO.

German law kinda lays out that temp housing....like using RV trailers or containers as rental property....cannot be legally done.

You could go and buy an RV or a container building, and have ownership of it....putting it on a camp-ground situation.  But renting it out?  No.

It's one of those funny laws.  Some guy in Berlin has apparently gotten caught....having a number of RV trailers and renting as housing units.  Cops got onto this and it's a court-item now.

Has the affordable housing crisis reached the point where people would accept RV trailers?  

I'd suggest that if you went into Frankfurt and could find a RV park on some end-point of the city (a pad, with power/sewage/water, not in a trashed-up condition)....educating people on how to buy a 5-to-10 year old RV trailer...you might have a thousand people ready to embark upon this way of living.

It is a silly lifestyle to consider, but trying to find anything in the 400 to 700 Euro range is now starting to be a problem.
