You don't live in Germany, but own a property in Berlin or the surrounding area?
Then selling from abroad is a viable and perfectly legitimate option for you. Whether you have moved abroad permanently, temporarily relocated for work or have been renting out your condominium in Berlin for years - if you decide to sell, we will provide you with professional and seamless support.
How sales from abroad work
A sale from abroad differs from a regular sale in Germany in only a few respects:
Power of attorney: You need a notarised power of attorney with which an authorised representative - e.g. us or a trusted person - can represent you at the notary appointment.
Digital voting: All steps from the initial meeting and document review through to marketing and discussion of the purchase agreement can be organised digitally.
Legal certainty: We work with experienced notaries and tax advisors who specialise in international sellers.
We support you.

Our services for owners abroad
Before we market your property, we first determine the realistic market value. To do this, we provide you with a free online tool available - ideal for an initial assessment. However, we are also on site for you in person for a well-founded assessment: We carry out professional property inspections, take high-quality photos and drone footage and also offer virtual 360° room tours on request. In this way, we achieve maximum visibility and transparency for potential buyers - even internationally.
We have been working for many years with a tried and tested network of experienced Notaries and specialised tax consultants who have specialised in the needs of international property owners. If you do not have a suitable contact person yourself, we will be happy to recommend experts you can rely on.

Do I have to be present in person at the sale?
No. With a duly notarised power of attorney, we will take all legal steps on your behalf.

You receive all information, draft contracts and documents digitally. Appointments and meetings are held by video or telephone. We take care of everything on site.
What happens if I don't speak German?
We offer our services in German, English, French, Farsi, Norwegian, Swedish, Greek, Russian and Mandarin.
Our team - there for you, in many languages!
We know that trust and comprehensibility are crucial when selling property. That's why we speak your language - in the truest sense of the word: German, English, French, Farsi, Norwegian, Swedish, Greek, Russian and Mandarin. This is how we ensure that you feel you are in good hands with us - regardless of where you live or where you come from.
Our team knows its way around - with the Berlin property market, with international buyers and sellers, with digital processes and with the little things that make the difference. And we've been doing this for many years.
From May 2025 you will also find us with our own office in Potsdam - as an expansion of our regional presence and to be able to provide even better support to our customers in the Berlin area.
If you are looking for someone who will accompany your sale in an uncomplicated, professional manner and with real experience, then you have come to the right place.
