Federal Court on the use of rent levels Apartment for rent increases

The Federal Court today ruled on a rent increase application, having regard to the landlord of his desire for a neighboring city has created rent index, of the local tenants' association, the local House and grounds qualities Hallows Association and the Mayor's office has been created together.

The defendant is the tenant of a dwelling of the applicant in Backnang. In that action requires the landlord to agree to a rent increase to € 76.69 per month. The calculation of the rent, the landlord the rent index of the neighboring town of Schorndorf based on this and arguing that this is a trade with the Backnang comparable community. The district court has upheld the application for appointment of an expert with recovery of the rent index for Schorndorf. The district court dismissed the appeal of the tenant.

directed against the revision of the tenant had no success. Who among other responsible for the Housing Tenancy Eighth Civil Division of the Federal Court held that the landlord has properly stated its rent increase request in accordance with § 558a BGB *. The reference to the rent index of the neighboring town of Schorndorf was sufficient, because no rent index for the city of Backnang been created, and because both cities, as the experts pointed out, similar to others in terms of rent levels are. The Federal

has also held that even after the introduction of qualified rent index (§ 558d BGB ***) by the Tenancy Reform Act of 19 June 2001 may be easier to rent index (Civil Code § 558C **) the sole basis of the court determining the incumbent local comparative rent. Although the simple rent index is not reserved to the qualified legal presumption of Rents to the effect that the rent index in the charges referred to the customary reference rent reflect applicable (§ 558d Abs 3 BGB). The rent index is a simple but an indication for this assumption dar. This is true even if the basic rent index, was created as in the case decided, not by the community, but together stakeholders from the tenant and landlord. Whether this indicative effect in a particular case is sufficient to prove the local standard of rent charged depends on what the tenant objections against the realization value of the rent index rises. Does he substantiated instance, that the authors have it lacked the necessary expertise or they would be guided by irrelevant considerations or inadequate data used, the court must investigate the. Then remain skeptical about the reliability of the rent index, then the indicative effect is shaken. The landlord must then take other evidence for his claim that the rent demanded that he lay within the local comparative rent.

In the case decided, however, the tenant has raised no objections by the evidence of the effect - simple - rent index for Schorndorf has been shaken. The District Court has thus rightly based on these rent levels and established the local custom of the landlord to demand rent. * § 558a BGB
