Common questions before you enquire

Who pays the commission on a purchase in Germany?

When flats and single-family houses are sold to consumers, the commission is generally split equally (§ 656c German Civil Code). The contract must be in text form.

Which documents should I prepare?

Is the first estimate free?

Many agents offer a non-binding initial estimate. Ask beforehand whether any costs apply.

Editorial context

Working with a provider in Southbank – what matters

When appointing a real estate agent in Southbank, first distinguish between sales, lettings and ongoing property management. MICM lists these services alongside Owners Corporation and building management. Clients should therefore clarify the exact scope of the appointment and which department will be responsible. Managing an individual rental apartment is not the same as managing the building as a whole.

For an apartment sale, useful questions concern the basis of the appraisal, the marketing plan and how inspection feedback will be reported. Asking prices published on the website should not be treated as achieved sale prices. Rental providers should ask how prospective renters are assisted, how maintenance requests are handled and how owners receive updates on outstanding matters. For owners based overseas, a named contact, cover arrangements and clear reporting are particularly useful selection criteria.

Owners Corporations have different priorities, including budget preparation, planning major works and documenting routine maintenance. Since MICM also describes building management, concierge and insurance services, responsibilities, service boundaries and separate charges should be agreed clearly. For digital reporting, ask which information clients can actually access.

Google reviews can offer additional insight into communication and service experiences. However, the supplied selection is no substitute for a direct discussion or a comparison of written service proposals and fees. These points are general guidance, not legal advice.

Selected reviews on Google

The supplied Google data shows 4.2 out of 5 from 1,754 reviews. Across the provided selection of five reviews, all rated five stars, recurring themes include prompt responses, clear communication and support from individual staff members. Several comments concern rental management from both owner and renter perspectives, including support for landlords living overseas. One purchase review praises guidance throughout the transaction and negotiations perceived as transparent. Another owner describes proactive monitoring of the rental market. As a critical point, one otherwise positive review mentions earlier, less satisfactory experiences with other MICM property managers. These excerpts are a selection rather than a reflection of the full range of feedback; two texts are cut off at the end.

We have had a lovely apartment in Melbourne for over 20 years and MICM have actively managed this for us. We have found them to be a professional, responsive and proactive company. We would highly recommend them to any landlord looking for a trustworthy property management service. We have had an excellent experience with this letting agency, and in particular with Shadan. Living overseas, it is incredibly important for us to have someone we can trust to manage our property and deal with any issues that arise. Shadan has always been professional, responsive and efficient. He handles both property matters and tenant concerns exceptionally well. He always responds to queries and his communication is excellent, giving us complete confidence that everything is being looked after, despite being in another country.

After dealing with some not-so-great experiences with other property managers at MICM, I was thankfully assigned to Cameron Egri. Although he managed my property for only a short period, it was a really positive experience. He was precise, efficient, quick to respond, and very understanding throughout. He was genuinely a pleasure to deal with, and I really appreciated his professionalism.

We recently purchased a property through Jen Lin Lau at MICM and we could not have asked for a better person to guide us through it. From our very first interaction Jen stood out as someone special. She is not just experienced and knowledgeable, but is also genuinely kind, thoughtful, and just a pleasure to deal with. Jen went over and above for her vendor and for us as purchasers. She worked so hard behind the scenes and made the whole process stress free. She kept us in the loop with her clear communication and made everything easy for us. She is a brilliant negotiator. She is fair and transparent, and we felt supported right to the end. Every time we have met with Jen we have been greeted with a warm smile that just lifts your heart. She knows her business inside out, but what sets her apart is the obvious passion she brings to her work. We are incredibly grateful to Jen for all her

I’ve had a very positive experience with our property manager, Vince. He has been incredibly helpful, responsive and always willing to go the extra mile to make sure our concerns are properly addressed. As a student, dealing with rental and property matters can sometimes be stressful, so having someone like Vince who communicates clearly and takes our concerns seriously has been extremely reassuring. He consistently follows up, keeps us updated and makes a genuine effort to resolve any issues as quickly as possible. I really appreciate all the support and assistance he has given us, and I would highly recommend Vince to anyone looking for a reliable, considerate and attentive property manager.

I'm glad to share this review for **Aarzoo Malik**, Senior Property Manager at **MICM**. I have been extremely impressed with the outstanding service provided by Aarzoo Malik, Senior Property Manager at MICM. Aarzoo has consistently demonstrated professionalism, excellent communication, and a genuine commitment to protecting my interests as a landlord while also ensuring my tenants are well looked after. What sets her apart is her proactive approach. Rather than simply managing the property, she regularly monitors the rental market and recently recommended increasing the rent to align with current market conditions, providing clear evidence and advice to maximise the return on my investment. This level of initiative is exactly what every property owner hopes for in a property manager. At the same time, Aarzoo treats tenants with respect and care, ensuring maintenance requests are add

Services in this field explained

Property valuation

A valuation estimates the price a property can achieve on the market, based on location, condition, size, fittings and comparable sales.

What does a valuation cost? Many agents offer an initial estimate free of charge. A formal market value report by a certified surveyor is paid; the fee depends on the property and effort.

Selling property

When you sell, an agent handles valuation, exposé, viewings, negotiation and the notary appointment.

Who pays the agent's commission? When flats and single-family houses are sold to consumers, the commission is generally split between seller and buyer (§ 656c German Civil Code).

Letting

When letting, an agent takes care of listing, viewings, tenant selection and the tenancy agreement.

Who pays the agent when letting? Since 2015 the “orderer pays” principle applies to residential lettings: usually the landlord pays when they hired the agent.
