no answer is also an answer Explanation: A "premium" is often an Aufschlag or surcharge so a reverse premium is some additional benefit granted to the tenant by the owner for the trouble of moving twice, maybe a rent reduction or a better object for the same rent. My dictionaries show nothing in German for this. Even if it is a rent reduction, "Mietminderung" can't be right because that is a reduction in the normal rent payment made by the tenant without permission of the owner resulting from some deficiency for which the tenant holds the owner responsible. "Mietrabatt" sounds logical and is often used for situations like your context, but it would only work for a monetary inducement. It would not cover a better rental object for the same price. Sorry this isn't much help - Dan |

How about "Mietentschädigung"???????? Explanation: I just noticed, "to be asked of a tenant" in your question. That sounds like something negative for the tenant. What do you think that means? Some Google search engine results: "Mietstornierung" (zero hits), "Mietbefreiung" (5 hits) or "Mietentlastung" (2 hits), "Mietrabatt" (8 hits), Mietvergünstigung (zero hits) and Mietausgleich (3 hits) and the most popular for the last: Mietentschädigung (29 hits) nearly all about situations like yours. - Dan |
