Note

Every figure on this page is an estimate based on the values you entered and on defaults from German federal law, the selected state's law and market practice, each as of the date shown next to it. This is not financial, legal or tax advice. The real amounts come from the notary's (Notar) bill, the tax office's notice and your lender's offer when you buy; check them before you sign. The site does not store the numbers you enter; they stay in the page address.
