What does remote property documentation in Germany cost?

Typical price drivers for a room-by-room photo and video report, additional areas and coordinated access appointments.

Short answer

Sachnah's guided digital inventory starts at €149, an on-site photo and room report starts at €349, and a single access appointment starts at €129. Size, access, ancillary rooms, depth of documentation and travel determine the final written quotation.

The number of rooms matters, but it is not the only cost driver. A small, densely furnished flat with a difficult key route can require more work than a larger empty property. A reliable quotation therefore describes both the property and the intended result.

1. Core price components

A standard on-site assignment includes pre-appointment access clarification, room-by-room photography, short videos where agreed and a structured digital report. Additional areas and more detailed item-level recording increase the time required.

  • number and type of rooms
  • cellar, garage or outbuildings
  • key and travel route
  • overview or detailed documentation
  • additional provider appointments

2. External provider costs remain separate

Clearance, cleaning, appraisal, legal advice and brokerage are not hidden inside the documentation price. Their providers issue separate quotations or agreements so that roles and costs remain understandable.

3. Example ranges

A typical two-room flat with up to roughly 70 square metres may fall around €349 to €440 for a basic on-site report. A four-room property with an additional cellar may be around €480 to €590. A house or assignment involving several appointments commonly starts around €690.

These are orientation figures, including German VAT where applicable, but excluding external providers and unusual travel. The written quotation is controlling.

4. Information needed for a quotation

Send the city, property type, approximate size, known ancillary areas, current key location and the decision the report should support. Sensitive documents are not required for the initial estimate.

Frequently asked questions

Can I receive a fixed quotation?

Yes, once the address, access route, included areas and intended result are sufficiently clear.

Are clearance costs included?

No. External clearance providers quote separately unless a written offer explicitly states otherwise.

Is German VAT included?

Consumer-facing orientation prices are intended as gross figures where German VAT applies; the final written quotation provides the exact tax treatment.
