2. When does the landlord have to pay the Wunderflats Service Fee?

As a landlord, you will receive an invoice for the Wunderflats Service Fee after completing a booking for the entire rental period. The same applies to renewing a rental agreement with a tenant found through Wunderflats. The Wunderflats Service Fee is due within 14 days after receipt of the invoice. Our billing invoice is not tied to the start date of the lease. If you have activated automatic first month's rent payouts, the Wunderflats service fee will be automatically deducted from the tenant's first month's rent payment, no manual payment of the fee will be required from you as a landlord in this case.


3. When does a reduced VAT apply?

If your property is in Germany and the rental period is less than six months, the Wunderflats Service Fee for landlords is calculated from the total rent minus the applicable 7% tax based on the net income rent. This is a gesture of goodwill, and there is no legal claim to it.


4. How can I pay the Wunderflats Service Fee?
