What is the difference between the cold rent and warm rent in Germany?

Cold rent in Germany includes only the basic rent for the apartment, excluding any additional costs. Warm rent in Germany, on the other hand, encompasses the basic rent along with utility costs, such as hot and cold water, heating, waste disposal, recycling, trash pick-up, snow removal, common area electricity, elevator maintenance, etc, and other related expenses. However, at KUMMUNI, tenants don’t need to worry about these distinctions. We offer an all-inclusive rent that covers every cost except the radio tax.
