Editorial context
Working with a provider in Essen – what matters
When appointing an estate agent in Essen, clients should first establish the agent’s experience with the specific district and property type. This provider’s website and references document houses, apartments and tenanted investment properties. However, an individually owned apartment, a historic house and a multi-unit residential building may require different documents and marketing approaches. Relevant reference properties are therefore more informative than the total number of properties marketed alone.
An initial discussion should cover how the asking price is determined, the proposed marketing steps and responsibilities within the team. The website lists photography, marketing and staging among team roles. Clients should ask which activities are included in their particular instruction, whether additional charges apply and how the presentation will be agreed. Arrangements for viewing feedback and handling purchase offers should also be established.
For tenanted investment properties, clear information about tenancies, current rental income and the property’s condition is important. Buyers of historic or older houses should also establish what information is available about modernisation and energy performance. Estate agency documents do not replace any necessary technical inspection.
Before proceeding, fees, contract duration, service scope and any contractual restrictions should be clearly documented. Google reviews and personal references can provide additional perspectives, but do not establish that every instruction will follow the same course. The supplied selection describes exclusively positive experiences and should be understood in that context.

Sehr kompetent, sympathisch und zuverlässig! Auf der Suche nach unserer Traumimmobilie wurden wir von Frau Christiane Döbbe aus dem Büro Petra Kuptz und Kompagnon Immobilien GmbH betreut. Die Besichtigung war top organisiert, sehr transparent und wir hatten vor Ort genügend Zeit, uns alles genau anzusehen. Alle Fragen zu Dokumenten und zum Objekt wurden blitzschnell und ehrlich beantwortet. Auch nach dem Kauf stand uns das Team noch mit Rat und Tat zur Seite. Ein Maklerbüro mit Herz und Fachverstand – absolut empfehlenswert!
Auf diesem Wege möchte ich mich noch einmal herzlich bei Frau Döbbe bedanken. Sie ist nicht nur die sympathischste, sondern auch die kompetenteste Maklerin, die ich je kennengelernt habe. Schon der Erstkontakt war herzlich und unkompliziert – und dieser positive Eindruck hat sich durch den gesamten Prozess bestätigt. Besonders beeindruckt hat mich, wie sie meine Wünsche und Prioritäten genau verstanden hat. Sie hat mir nicht nur bei den Verhandlungen geholfen und offene Fragen geklärt, sondern war sogar beim Notartermin dabei – ein Service, den ich so nicht erwartet hätte! Das hat mir viel Sicherheit gegeben. Ich habe mich bei ihr immer gut aufgehoben gefühlt: keine leeren Floskeln, sondern eine ehrliche, menschliche Begegnung auf Augenhöhe.

Vielen Dank für die ausgezeichnete Betreuung – ich würde mich jederzeit wieder für diese Zusammenarbeit entscheiden.
Wir haben unsere wunderschöne Altbau-Maisonette-Wohnung in Rüttenscheid verkauft und sind von der gesamten Unterstützung durch Kuptz und Kompagnon Immobilien wirklich begeistert. Frau Döbbe hat uns von Anfang an sehr realistisch, ehrlich und mit ihrem unverwechselbaren Charme beraten. Das hat nicht nur richtig Spaß gemacht, sondern vor allem auch schnell zum Erfolg geführt. Durch die professionelle Begleitung und die sorgfältige Prüfung der Unterlagen durch das gesamte Team sind uns vor allem auch einige Stolpersteine erspart geblieben – so etwas ist wirklich Gold wert. Wer seine wertvolle Immobilie verkaufen möchte, sollte daher unbedingt mit Kuptz und Kompagnon Immobilien sprechen. Von uns ganz klar 5 von 5 Sternen und ein großes Dankeschön!
Der Kauf unserer Immobilie wurde von Immobilien Kuptz begleitet und wir haben uns dabei sehr gut aufgehoben gefühlt. Besonders geschätzt haben wir die freundliche Kommunikation und die Unterstützung bei allen offenen Fragen. Der gesamte Ablauf war unkompliziert und gut organisiert. Auch die angenehme Atmosphäre bei der Vertragsunterzeichnung ist uns positiv in Erinnerung geblieben – durch die nette Gestaltung wirkte alles sehr persönlich. Vielen Dank für die Begleitung!

Services in this field explained
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.
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).
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.
