Modernization of real estate as a condition for higher rents

Depending on the condition of your property, you can ask for higher rent prices in the form of a modernization surcharge. For example, have modernization measures recently been carried out in your apartment or does the property have particularly high-quality furnishings? These are valid reasons to call for higher rental prices. Basically, the focus here is on transparency towards your tenant: As the owner, you have the opportunity to modernize your property, because this way you can ensure that your house or apartment is in good condition in the long run. However, such measures must always be communicated transparently to your tenant. The tenant's consent is not necessary and you are entitled to implement the modernization in any case. If the measures have been implemented, you can also increase the annual rent by up to 11% of the costs incurred for the modernization. The rental team at Engel & Völkers Vienna will be happy to give you a detailed overview of your options.​
