Expats Guide to Buying a House in Germany (English Book)
There is a ton of content available on buying a property in Germany. But it is in German. The foreign language makes it difficult for non-German speakers to absorb the information.
Thus, we created a guide in English that expats can use to buy a property in Germany.

- How to contact the seller?
- What documents should you check before buying a house in Germany?
- How do you get a mortgage from a German bank?
- How do you negotiate mortgage and property prices?
- Average renovation costs in Germany
- and more...
Buying a home in Germany is time-consuming and involves a lot of money. Hence, educate yourself to make an informed decision.
We also shared tips and tricks to save thousands of euros in your home-buying process.
You'll also get a real estate research template along with the book. You can use the template to evaluate the area where you want to buy a property.
You'll find the book helpful irrespective of whether you want to rent or live in the house. If you plan to rent the property, you'll also need the following documents.
- Rental contract
- Übergabeprotokol
