Termination rental agreement
The rental contract clearly states the applicable notice period and the manner in which you must cancel. Rental contracts usually require a registered letter for this. If requested, we can assist tenants with a premium package in terminating their rental contract. As soon as we receive a cancellation letter or email, we will inform your landlord or manager and then send you a written confirmation of your cancellation.
The notice period is laid down in the rental contract and usually a notice period of at least 1 calendar month applies to rented accommodation.
Rental period
The rental period is almost always at least one year and if you want to move within the year, this is possible if you, we or the landlord find a new tenant. Your rental agreement will then end when the new rental contract with the new tenant comes into effect. However, it is possible that some owners charge a small fine (usually half a month's rent) for breaking the fixed term of the contract, should this apply you will not be liable for remaining days of rent.
Where can I send my cancellation letter?
You can send your cancellation letter directly to your landlord or manager or, if the landlord has appointed a manager, to this manager. You can find the address details or email address in your rental contract. Please include at least the following information in your letter:
- Full name as stated in your rental contract
- Phone number
- E-mail address
- Address of the rented property
- Date on which you want the rental contract to end
- IBAN & BIC code for returning the deposit
