Where can I get funding for age-appropriate conversions to my home?

Before commissioning alterations to your home, you should first find out if you can apply to receive funds. For example, the KfW-development bank offers low-interest loans and grants for home conversions.

If you would like to carry out structural alterations to a rented home, you must first consult your landlord or landlady on the matter and get his or her permission. If your tenancy agreement requires you to restore the property to its original condition at your own expense when you move out, you should agree in writing that this provision is not to apply in the case of the planned alterations.
