Which Extra Costs Can I Expect With An Excl. Rate?
When the price is exclusive (excl), it means that only the monthly fixed costs, such as the flat rate and furniture, are included. Additional costs for utilities, internet, and other amenities are not covered. A break-down of these costs can be found in your rental agreement.
APARTMENT RENTAL
When renting an entire apartment, please note that there will be additional costs of approximately 355 EUR per month. These costs cover utilities such as gas, water, electricity, internet, and other possible amenities, which might be different per accommodation.
➡️ When renting an apartment with students, you may be eligible for municipality tax exemptions 🙌🥳. This could save you approx. €25 per person per month.
LONG-STAY ROOM RENTAL
For private bedrooms in shared accommodations (rooms), you can expect an additional amount of approximately €190 per month. This cost covers utilities such as gas, water, electricity, internet, and other possible amenities, which might be different per accommodation.
SHORT-STAY ROOM
However, when renting a short-stay room, please note that the additional amount is approximately €165 per month. This cost is lower because there are no taxes involved when booking a short-stay.

Important Information; 💡 (NOT APPLICABLE TO HOMESTAYS)
At the end of your stay, or annually, you will receive a settlement for all advance payments. The actual costs will be based on your actual usage. If your usage exceeds the advance payments, you will need to cover the difference. Conversely, if your actual costs are lower than the advance payments, you will receive a refund.
