The implementation and validity of the buyer principle from 1 July 2023 raises a number of questions. As this date draws ever closer, I would like to pass on and quote the information and summary from the Chamber of Commerce, Real Estate Division, as follows:<\/p>\n
With effect from 1 July 2023, a new Section 17a of the Brokers Act (MaklerG) will enshrine the first client principle for the brokerage of residential tenancy agreements. For brokerage agreements (brokerage contracts) concluded from 1 July 2023 onwards, the broker's commission is to be paid by the party to the contract that initiated the broker's service as the first client.<\/p>\n
If the landlord is the estate agent's first client, a commission agreement with the person seeking accommodation will be excluded in any case from 1 July 2023 in accordance with Section 17a (1) MaklerG.<\/p>\n
Even if the flat seeker is the broker's first client, no commission obligation may be imposed on the broker from 1 July 2023 under certain conditions (economic ties between the broker and the landlord or administrator; the landlord refrains from concluding a brokerage agreement solely to obtain a commission obligation from the flat seeker; the flat to be brokered has already been advertised by the broker) in accordance with Section 17a (3) MaklerG.<\/p>\n
The first client principle is flanked by a documentation obligation on the part of the estate agent with regard to the time of the commission in order to be able to better determine whether a commission claim may be asserted against the home seeker in the event of successful brokerage.<\/p>\n
From July 2023, things will definitely get exciting with lettings!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
