Nettokaltmiete

net cold rent, base rent excluding utilities

noun NET-oh-kahlt-mee-teh Rare

Usage Note

Nettokaltmiete is the base monthly rent that does not include heating costs (Heizkosten) or ancillary costs (Nebenkosten). German rental ads always state it separately from the total Warmmiete (warm rent including all costs). Understanding this distinction is essential for budget planning.

Examples

"Die Nettokaltmiete beträgt 800 Euro; mit Nebenkosten sind es insgesamt 1.050 Euro."

Natural Translation

The base rent is 800 euros; including utilities it comes to 1,050 euros in total.

Literal Translation

The net-cold-rent amounts-to 800 euros; with ancillary-costs it is in-total 1,050 euros.
