This applies exclusively when the operating costs are similar in their origin. The billing must generally be based on the types of costs as agreed in the rental contract. Only in this way can tenants reliably and easily recognize whether only the agreed costs are being billed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For example, costs for janitorial services and garden maintenance must be billed separately, even if the janitor performs gardening work. A formally invalid billing leads to the complete deletion of the summarized items, regardless of whether the tenants could have understood the actual costs by inspecting the receipts. This ensures that only the costs agreed in the rental contract are allocated.<\/p>\n<p>&zwnj;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; line-height: 100%\"><small>You're in need of professional advice on the topic of 'operating cost statements'?<br \/>Contact us!<br \/>For a free initial assessment of your concern, please call us at 0341-23 08 4988 or send a message to office@leipzig-recht.de.<\/small><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Das Amtsgericht Hamburg stellte im Urteil vom 12.
