FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Why are there no example values already filled in?

Example values can make a planning tool look more precise than it is. The fields start empty so the result is based on your own offer, rent, household, route or travel assumptions. Placeholders show the expected format only and are not used in the calculation.

How should I judge the result?

It cannot account for queue access, sublet conditions, deposits or every housing-related fee. Use the result to compare scenarios, then verify the relevant current source or detailed guide before making a financial, immigration, study, housing or travel commitment.
