FAQ: Documents for selling a property
Answers to your most important questions
Which documents do I need to sell my property?
A wide range of documents is required during the sales process. Buyers and their banks will conduct a detailed review. To help you prepare for the sale, we provide a practical checklist and support you in gathering all necessary documents.
Where can I get these documents?
Many documents can be obtained directly from your property management company. Other documents – such as land register extracts or site plans – can be requested from the relevant land registry office, building authority, or cadastral office. If you’re missing any documents, we’ll gladly help you obtain them.
Is an appraisal necessary for selling my property?
A costly expert appraisal is usually not necessary. Our market value assessment provides a reliable basis for a successful sale.
Why is the current rental contract needed?
If your property is rented out, the current rental contract is particularly important for potential buyers. It contains key details on rent amount, termination clauses, service charge regulations, and tenant rights and obligations. For investors, it’s a crucial decision-making factor – and even private buyers need to know if and when a termination due to own use would be possible.
Why is selling a property with a real estate agent worthwhile?
Selling privately may seem simple but often involves legal uncertainties, time investment, and financial risk. Common mistakes such as incorrect pricing, incomplete documentation, or missing credit checks can be costly.
As experienced real estate agents, we handle every step for you – professionally, legally secure, and efficiently. This saves you time and helps you avoid expensive mistakes.
How high is the agent’s commission, and who pays it?
Our commission is 3.57 % including VAT for both buyer and seller, payable only after notarization of the purchase contract.
