Good afternoon,
My parents are German citizens and are living in a house that is under my name. Does Germany give me a residency permit if I own a property? I am not a German Citizen.
Thank you

Hello abuzous, thank you for reaching out to us.
In general owning property does not automatically grant you the right to receive a residence permit in Germany.
In some cases, where the property you own generates income, such as a hotel or apartments that are rented out, then this could allow you to receive residency. However, owning an apartment alone will not give you residency in Germany.
