Charges (additional charges)
Rental prices are indicated either excluding charges (HC or HT) and/

include building maintenance and rental taxes. Generally, these charges

landlord. The document describes precisely the general state of the
apartment (cleanliness, electrical network, heating, wall paintings,
floors, sanitary facilities, etc.).
