How to find suitable buyers for your apartment building

In a series of articles, we provide tips and considerations for those who want to or need to sell their apartment house or rental house, i.e. a multi-family house, or are basically considering such a thing. Even though we are real estate trustees in Austria, our tips apply generally in German-speaking countries for anyone selling an apartment building.

It should also be noted that we also offer a free initial consultation on the topics presented. 

How to find suitable buyers for your apartment building

The (theoretically) easiest way

The simplest thing is: you find a buyer in your own circle of acquaintances who will pay you a good price. What is an objectively good price can be provided by an expert evaluation - as explained in one of our previous episodes.

The usual way

Usually, potential buyers have to be found externally in the market. And these are typically wealthy individuals and families, professional investors, foundations and companies. We deal with this wealthy clientele on a daily basis, and many of them are also regularly interested in apartment buildings and rental houses as investments. We can therefore put you in touch with potential buyers. In addition, we screen prospective buyers, so you don't run the risk of "real estate tourists" or dubious prospective buyers looking at your property.

Apartment house online?

You should not simply put the house online on one or even several real estate platforms. Firstly, you will receive countless enquiries from brokers and questionable prospective buyers with unclear creditworthiness. Secondly, interest and rental houses that are put online are considered "second choice" properties that could not be sold "offmarket" before and had to be put online now.

Tip

Make absolutely sure that the offer of your property is first placed discreetly in the right groups of buyers. And not placed online, at least not initially. We at SUNSET IMMOBILIEN can support you in reaching the right clientele or potential buyers.
