German rental income calculator for Anlage V

Estimate the German rental result behind Anlage V from rent, Nebenkosten, AfA, Hausgeld, mortgage interest and deductible costs.

Annual inputs

Use amounts received and paid during the German tax year. The simulator gives an indicative Anlage V rental result, not a full German income-tax assessment.

Indicative Anlage V result

Indicative German rental result is positive before income tax. Anlage V Easy can then map these amount families to ELSTER lines: rent, Werbungskosten, mortgage interest, AfA and condominium costs.

This result explains the German rental-income logic. It does not calculate your final German income tax, treaty treatment, foreign filing, or any tax office assessment.

This calculator estimates the German rental-income result that feeds Anlage V: gross rent and tenant-paid Nebenkosten minus Werbungskosten, mortgage interest and AfA. It does not calculate your final German income tax, treaty relief, foreign declaration or the Finanzamt assessment.

What the calculator covers

It uses the same simple flow a foreign landlord needs before filling Anlage V: cash rent received, tenant reimbursements, annual owner costs, loan interest and AfA. The output is an indicative profit or loss for the rental property.

When to use a Steuerberater

Use a Steuerberater for short-term rental with services, several owners, sale-year issues, large renovation classification, treaty conflicts, VAT, disputed Finanzamt letters or any question about final tax due.
