Hi,
apologies if this has been asked or posted before but I have a twofold question.
1.) kalt/warm ..I see a lot of apartments posting rent amounts in kalt or warm. When it's warm, does that mean there are no extra costs for electricity, heating, gas or whatever might be required? I'm not familiar with that. Everywhere I used to live it was my responsibility to pay separately to a separate company. Sorry if it seems like something that is obvious or common sense. I just want to clarify what other hidden costs there might be.
2.) Vormerkschein - is that common? I understand that means I have no chance as expat, but what other pitfalls might there be? I can provide payslips and everything, just not from Germany.
