Buying & Selling Real Estate in Frankfurt am Main

Frankfurt am Main

Frankfurt is one of the most sought-after real estate markets in Germany. Anyone looking to sell a house or apartment here can benefit from strong demand—provided that the pricing strategy, marketing, and buyer selection are all on point. As a real estate agent in Frankfurt, I’ll personally guide you through the entire sales process.

With over 30 years of service-oriented professional experience, deep roots in the Rhine-Main region, and high standards for quality and service, one thing is always at the center of every sale: marketing your property in the best possible way and consistently representing your interests.

Selling a House or Apartment in Frankfurt: Why Owners Are Currently Benefiting from the Market Situation

Frankfurt am Main is Germany’s international financial center and, at the same time, one of the most important residential locations in the Rhine-Main region. The combination of economic strength, limited developable land, and continuous population growth has ensured stable demand for residential real estate for years.

In particular, condominiums in central neighborhoods and well-maintained single-family homes in southern Frankfurt and popular residential areas remain in high demand. High-quality properties, in particular, often achieve very good sales results—provided they are professionally appraised and marketed effectively.

However, many owners underestimate how significantly location, condition, energy efficiency, and marketing strategy influence the actual selling price. A thorough market analysis provides certainty in this regard and helps avoid costly mistakes.

Real Estate Prices in Frankfurt am Main: Current Market Data for Property Owners

Anyone looking to sell a property in Frankfurt often starts by researching current real estate prices. In fact, Frankfurt remains one of the most expensive real estate markets in Germany.

Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions from my customers.

View All
How much is the real estate agent's commission when selling a property in Frankfurt?

In Frankfurt and throughout Hesse, the standard real estate agent’s commission is typically between 5.95% and 7.14% of the purchase price (including VAT). Since the new legal regulations took effect, this commission for residential properties is generally split equally between the seller and the buyer. For you as the owner, this usually amounts to a share of 2.975% to 3.57%. The commission is not due until after the successful notary appointment.

How long does it take to sell a property in Frankfurt am Main?

The average time it takes to sell a house or apartment in Frankfurt is currently 3 to 6 months, from preparation through the payment of the purchase price. In particularly sought-after neighborhoods such as Westend, Nordend, or Sachsenhausen, a property can often be successfully sold in as little as 6 to 10 weeks with professional marketing and a price in line with the market.

What documents are required to sell a house or apartment in Frankfurt?

The most important documents include a current land registry extract, the energy performance certificate, construction drawings, and the living space calculation. When selling a condominium, you’ll also need the declaration of division, the most recent minutes from the owners’ meetings, and the current housing allowance statement. An experienced real estate agent can help you compile these documents so that they are complete and comply with official requirements.
