Already in the second half 19. Century tenants had together-found themselves local to self-help mechanisms. In Dresden 1868 the first "Miethbewohnerverein" developed. Housing misery and a large outlawry of the tenants marked this epoch.

In the year 1900 finally 25 tenant associations created the federation of the tenant associations (later: Federation of German tenant associations) in Leipzig and put thereby the foundation-stone for a German tenant movement.

The Tiefpunkt of the tenant movement took place during the time of the national socialism, 1942: Realm federation of the house and basic owners, federation of German tenant associations and the German settler federation became coordinated.

Since 1982 the German renters association operates the DMB legal expenses insurance AG with seat in Cologne.
