1. What is the Rent Estimate Calculator?

The Rent Estimate Calculator provides an estimated rental price for two-person units in Germany based on comparable rents adjusted for property features.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the following formula:

Where:

• Comparable Rents — Actual rental prices of similar 2-person units in the same area
• Feature Adjustment — Multiplier based on property features (standard, premium, or basic)

Explanation: The calculator averages comparable rents and adjusts for differences in property features.

3. Importance of Rent Estimation

Details: Accurate rent estimation helps tenants assess fair market prices and landlords set competitive rental rates for two-person households in Germany.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter at least two comparable rental prices in EUR. For best results, use recent rental data from similar properties in the same neighborhood.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

A: Similar size (for 2 people), same neighborhood, and similar property type (apartment, house, etc.).

Q3: How are features adjusted?
A: Premium features (like new appliances) add 10%, basic features (older appliances) subtract 10% from the base rent.

Q4: Does this include utilities?
