The decision to move in together is a big step for a couple. Finally having a place together, more time for each other, and perhaps family planning…but these are not the only benefits of living together. How you can move in together properly and save a lot of money, I will tell you in the series of articles “Moving in together properly”. In the first part, we will first look at the formalities and administrative procedures involved in your move.

Signing the lease together

It doesn’t matter whether you move into a new apartment together or one of the partners simply moves into the existing apartment: You should always sign the lease together. Only in this way do you both have the same rights, but also the same obligations. Of course, you don’t want to think about a breakup when you’re freshly moving in together, yet it could happen that your partner simply moves out and you’re left with the rent debt. It is therefore important that both tenants are listed in the rental agreement. If one of the two wants to move out, you should make a lease termination agreement. But that’s not the only advantage of a joint rental agreement: It strengthens the feeling of togetherness and prevents one partner from simply “kicking the other out the door”.

A beautiful smile looks good on everyone. Provided that you also have nice teeth. Because with well-groomed teeth, not only hearty laughter is fun. You also look more attractive and are usually more successful in your job. Even though shape and color are predetermined in humans, everyone can do something for their dental care through a tooth-healthy diet and regular dental care.

Children's wheelchair

You can get different types of wheelchairs, for example, active or power wheelchairs, in designs for children. Make sure that a children's wheelchair has enough adjustment options to grow with the child and to offer children as much freedom of movement as possible. Apart from these types of wheelchairs, you can get wheelchairs for special needs in specialized stores. This includes, for example, all-terrain wheelchairs or beach wheelchairs. Shower wheelchairs are used specifically for toileting and showering.

With Martina Beese, lawyer of the law firm Engemann& Partner, Lippstadt, we talked about supplementary insurance and its role as a complement to full maintenance.

Both operators of new plants in the tendering process and lower compensation and operators of plants that will no longer receive government subsidies from 2020 onwards will have to rethink their maintenance and servicing concepts in view of the increasing cost pressure. It is often discussed to conclude a maintenance contract with a lower scope of services instead of a full maintenance contract and to fill the resulting “gaps” with machine insurance policies.
