First of all, and honestly, a landlord or tenant who doesn`t have a written contract is completely for brains. Too good German. But I am sincerely serious. Discrimination on the part of landlords is one of the things that our rental law treats as particularly serious. Tenants can ask the rental court for compensation, but they can also ask the court to order the landlord to pay an additional amount called “exemplary damages.” In case of discrimination, this additional amount can reach 4,000 $US. We have an accommodation rental agreement and a boarding lease for the owners. Owners can also create their own, provided they contain the minimum information required by law. Interestingly, one tax that real estate agents can collect is a deposit limited to a weekly rent. This deposit “reserves” the property until the signing of the final lease. You can find more information about rental agreements in the blog rental post…
