Expenses for household-related services
Enter here the expenses for household-related services. This includes all expenses for service providers contracted by your property management, for example:
- Cleaning companies (stair and building cleaning)
- Garden maintenance and landscape design by a gardening company
- Service providers for the implementation of winter maintenance
- Caretaker service by an external company
You can claim the share attributable to your flat unit in your tax return.
You can find out the amount either from your service charges / building management fees statement (Nebenkosten- oder Hausgeldabrechnung) or from the separate "Statement according to sect. 35a of the Income Tax Act" (Bescheinigung nach § 35a EStG).
