General Terms and Conditions

1. Our offers are not-binding and without obligation. Errors, omissions and prior sale remain reserved. Offers are directed personally to the offeree and must be treated as confidential. The transfer to third parties, including holders of a power of attorney or clients of the interested party, are not permitted without our written approval. Any infringement shall entail the payment of brokerage fee.

2. A brokerage fee is categorically due when the desired economic results are achieved within the business agreement. The agreement must have been concluded as a result of our brokerage activities or based on evidence supplied by us. Our claim to a commission fee is not affected when a closed deal is subsequently cancelled owing to a resolute condition, or cannot be fulfilled for any other reason. The claim to a finder’s fee is not affected when a contract is concluded at a later date or under other conditions.

3. Should the contract be completed by economically or legally affiliated companies / persons / family members of the offeree, it still owes the commission.

4. The commission is due at the time of the closing of a deal that was either brokered by us or came about based on evidence supplied by us. We also have a claim to a brokerage fee when another deal – whose economic results replace the originally intended deal – is substituted for the original offer (for example, a rental or leasing contract instead of a sales agreement or vice versa, foreclosure, an expansion of the offer, or especially the granting of a pre-emption.)

5. The brokerage fee

– for purchase agreements or the purchase of undeveloped or developed real estate at a foreclosure auction, as well as rights equivalent to real property, amount to 7,14 % of the total sales price inclusive of 19% VAT.

– three months rent – exclusive of heating costs – are due for commercial rentals or leases. 19 % VAT is added to this amount.

– for a pre-emptive right to buy that is recorded in the land register based on the value of the property, we charge an additional 3,57 % on top of the usual brokerage fee (inclusive of 19% VAT).

6. We reserve also the right to act for a client on a commission basis.

7. No liability can be assumed for the completeness of the business offer.

8. Should individual provisions be invalid, the remaining provisions shall remain unaffected by this. The invalid provisions are to be replaced by valid provisions that are equivalent – or come closest from an economic standpoint – to the meaning of the replaced ones.

9. Place of fulfilment and jurisdiction is Berlin, Germany.
