Immo-Lens

About this app

Buying a house or apartment in Germany without having grown up with the process? ImmoLens walks you through it, from the first viewing to the notary appointment.

✓ AI analysis: photograph the listing, upload a PDF or paste the text
✓ Share screenshots from any property app straight into ImmoLens
✓ Viewing checklist with 45+ inspection points
✓ Renovation costs in three scenarios
✓ Subsidy check: KfW, BAFA and the state programmes of all 16 federal states
✓ Closing costs, notary fees and transfer tax for every federal state
✓ Yield, budget and buy-or-rent calculators
✓ Handover protocol and notary countdown for the closing

How it works:
1. Photograph the listing, share a screenshot or upload a PDF
2. The AI evaluates more than 60 data points
3. Renovation costs, subsidies and risks at a glance

What German buyers know and nobody tells you:
Closing costs run to roughly 9 to 12 percent of the purchase price and are not
covered by the mortgage. Transfer tax (Grunderwerbsteuer) alone ranges from 3.5 to 6.5 percent depending
on the federal state. The notary appointment is binding, and the draft contract has a
statutory waiting period. ImmoLens puts these numbers on the table before you sign.

Subsidies without guesswork:
Amounts, interest rates and income limits for the state programmes come from verified
sources and carry their date. Where the amount depends on something only the
promotional bank can determine, we say so rather than quoting a figure you cannot
rely on.

Manage your projects:
• Compare several properties side by side
• Upload photos from viewings
• Documents, notes and a communication log
• Work through the checklist on site
• PDF export for banks and advisors
• Map view of all your projects
• Share an analysis with family or an advisor
