The maintenance fee may be found in the annual statement documents of your
property provided by the property management. The maintenance fee influences
the cashflow of your capital investment, since it represents an outgoing cashflow.
The maintenance reserve is accumulated by the owners of a property to
be able to finance necessary reparations. The accumulation of a maintenance
reserve is required by German law §21 Abs. 5 Nr. 4 WEG (Wohnungseigentumsgesetz).
