So you have decided to buy a property – congratulations! Whether searching for a new family home, or as a rental investment - your first property or your 100th - there is no feeling quite like it. You are making a smart decision in the short, medium and long term. The inevitability of long term property ownership is the finest way to secure your future and ensure financial security in retirement. As a long-term investment, real estate’s stability makes it crisis-resistant, and with interest rates still considered low, plus the ability to fix for up to 20 years, now is the time to buy in Germany. While it can seem daunting, do not fear! The process need not be complicated with the right guidance! I hope you find the following useful in your search for an apartment, and throughout your ownership.

}As a buyer living in Germany, you do not legally require the services of a lawyer. Often, the notary will produce the sales contract in both English & German, and the notary themselves can answer most contract related questions. You will however, need the services of a sworn translator at the contract signing, unless you speak fluent German.

}Current German law states, as an individual owner, you can sell your rental investment apartment after 10 years of ownership, and pay 0% tax on any profit that you have made. It is currently the only asset class offering this. This law is reduced to just 2 years if you have lived in the apartment yourself and not rented it out.
Due to recent legal changes, the buyer and the seller must now split the sales commission 50/50. As a seller, your percentage can range from 1.5- 3.5%, depending on the commission level that the selling agent charges their clients.
