Flat for sale 1 bedroom • 44 m² without real estateRodenbergstraße 53 Berlin Prenzlauer Berg Berlin 10439

Imagine this: You open your windows in the morning, the sun floods in from the south, and you gaze upon the treetops of the park across the street – right in the heart of Prenzlauer Berg. I have lived in this apartment for ten years and am only moving out because my Thai massage practice has outgrown the space. I know every nook of this apartment and every renovation in the building down to the smallest detail – not as a broker reading from a brochure, but as someone who truly lived here and also sits on the owners’ administrative board. All documents are available for inspection, and a preliminary draft of the contract is already with the notary – if you’re seriously looking, feel free to contact me directly by phone, WhatsApp, or IS24 message.

Who I am and why buying directly without a broker is beneficial for you can be found in my personal message further down in the “Other” section.

Buy Directly from the Owner. A personal message from me (Andrea).

I know this side of the process from personal experience. When I bought my two Berlin apartments, I paid several thousand euros in broker commissions each time. With a broker, you’d typically pay around €10,000 here, and I did as well. That’s roughly €20,000 flowing out of the transaction to someone who, in my experience, often knows very little about the actual apartment or the building.

When I listed the apartment online, several large Berlin agencies came for a viewing. Only a few asked the questions that truly matter to a buyer. Essentially, a broker is just a salesperson who brings buyers and sellers together. The actual due diligence remains your responsibility.

And that is exactly the point: Buying through a broker does not relieve you of either responsibility or risk. You would still have to review the documents yourself, probably consult an expert, and have the purchase contract reviewed by a lawyer. Typically, a broker does not cover these services.

What I offer you instead: I lived here for ten years and sit on the building’s administrative board. I will answer openly and firsthand what a broker usually cannot. I provide details about the actual condition of the apartment and building, upcoming planned measures, the maintenance reserve, and the relationship with the property management. If you are financing through a bank, I am happy to support you through the process, as I have been through it myself. And if you view the apartment as an investment, I can help you evaluate its rental potential and the required permits.

Come by and have a coffee with me. You really understand the apartment best when you are standing in it. I am available most days except Wednesdays before 2:00 PM, including weekends. Evening appointments are available on request.

I look forward to showing you the place.
