Unlike residential tenancy law, which is strongly shaped by social tenant protection, commercial tenancy law in Germany (and therefore in Rhineland-Palatinate) is based on the principle of extensive freedom of contract. Because the legislature assumes that commercial parties (B2B) interact on equal footing, the statutory provisions in the BGB for commercial real estate are highly flexible and adjustable.
