Last updated: 24. August 2026 | Reading time: 12 minutes

RIEDEL Immobilien supports property owners in the east of Munich from the initial valuation right through to the signing of the deed; if desired, this can be done without attracting public attention and with a single point of contact who is familiar with the neighbourhood’s most desirable locations. The first step is always to determine the realistic value.

Bogenhausen is one of Munich’s most prestigious residential areas, and the market for houses here is only partially reflected on property portals. Between the embassy district on Möhlstraße, the listed buildings of Alt-Bogenhausen and the quiet, architect-designed developments in Parkstadt, the exact address often has a greater influence on the achievable price than the living space alone. Selling a house in Bogenhausen therefore requires a valuation in line with market conditions, the right marketing strategy and channels that go beyond public listings. This is what sets selling a house in Bogenhausen apart from a standard property sale.

RIEDEL is a family-run business based in Munich since 1982 and maintains its own office in the district. This local presence is the most important factor in building trust for owners, as it means short lines of communication, direct, street-level market knowledge and long-established contacts with buyers looking for a house in the neighbourhood.

Why sales here follow their own market dynamics

The housing stock in the district is limited and can hardly be increased: there is virtually no new building land available in this densely built-up neighbourhood, and many properties remain in family ownership for decades. When a house does change hands, the limited supply meets demand from a wide range of prospective buyers: from the diplomatic community on Möhlstraße to Munich families seeking a prestigious home with a garden. When it comes to selling a house in Munich, Bogenhausen is one of the city’s most prestigious addresses.

For owners, this means two things. On the one hand, the demand creates room for manoeuvre – provided the asking price is set close to market value from the outset and the right group of buyers is specifically targeted. On the other hand, particularly in a compact market, discretion is often more important than reach: Many owners wish to sell their house in Bogenhausen without neighbours, business associates or the whole neighbourhood finding out. That is why the sale of a house here is deliberately kept confidential. A price set too high, on the other hand, leaves a property on the market and weakens the negotiating position, even where the location speaks for itself.

Micro-locations: Where your house is situated plays a part

The district is not a single, uniform market, but rather a series of distinct micro-locations, each with its own buyer profile. Not every property is a detached house: A townhouse in Bogenhausen is more likely to appeal to urban buyers looking for a property close to the city centre, whilst a flat in Bogenhausen is usually marketed as a spacious flat in a period building within the villa district. The address therefore directly influences the target audience and the best way to market a property.

What determines the value of your home

Before a house is put on the market, its value must be established. In this neighbourhood, flat-rate averages per square metre are of little significance. What matters are the plot’s shape and size, the exact micro-location, the condition of the building, and whether it is a listed historic building, a refurbished existing property or a new-build. A corner plot in a quiet location, mature trees or a secluded setting all influence demand, but these factors are difficult to gauge from property portal data. RIEDEL therefore determines the value based on the location, the property itself and the prices that comparable houses in the neighbourhood have actually achieved.

The ‘Property Valuation in Munich’ page explains the methods in detail (comparative, asset and income approaches) and how a robust valuation is structured.

Owners can obtain an initial valuation free of charge and with no obligation.

Discreet or public: two ways to sell

Not every property is sold in the same way. Anyone planning to sell a property in Bogenhausen must therefore first decide on the level of publicity: the nature of the property, the owner’s objectives and their desire for confidentiality determine which marketing approach is most suitable. This decision is made during a consultation prior to the property being put on the market.

Traditional, public marketing relies on a high-quality property brochure featuring professional photographs and floor plans, a presence on the relevant property portals, and outreach via the RIEDEL network. It generates the widest reach and is suitable for properties where broad visibility increases the number of serious prospective buyers.

Discreet off-market marketing takes the opposite approach: the property is offered to pre-selected buyers and via the branch’s personal network, without any public advertising. For many owners in the neighbourhood, this is not an option but a prerequisite: they wish to protect their privacy and retain control over the process. Discretion is not a blanket factor driving up prices, but rather a matter of protection and of specifically targeting the right group of buyers without ‘burning’ the property on the market.

Selling a house in Bogenhausen with RIEDEL

The greatest advantage for owners looking to sell a house in Bogenhausen is the local Bogenhausen branch: advisers who know the neighbourhood’s streets inside out, and a dedicated pool of pre-registered prospective buyers. As part of the international property network of Christie’s International Real Estate, RIEDEL also reaches buyers from abroad with links to Munich. This is particularly true when owners wish to sell a villa in Bogenhausen: in the top-end market, this reach is just as important as our experience in brokering luxury properties in Munich. The same demand from a buyer’s perspective is described on the ‘Buying a Villa in Bogenhausen’ page.

Awarded ‘Estate Agent of the Year 2025’ (Bellevue) and a member of the IVD, RIEDEL operates in Munich and the Fünfseenland region. For owners, this means, in concrete terms: a realistic valuation rather than inflated expectations, a high-quality presentation of the property, the targeted approach of suitable buyers, and a dedicated point of contact from valuation right through to handover. The sales process at RIEDEL brings together the general framework and all other sales services.

Estate agent’s commission and scope of services

When selling an owner-occupied property, the buyer and seller share the estate agent’s commission. The amount is a matter for negotiation and is agreed in writing before the mandate is granted. This covers a comprehensive range of services: valuation, preparation of documentation, professional presentation, targeted or discreet approach to potential buyers, viewings, price negotiations, and support right through to the appointment with the solicitor and the handover. The commission therefore does not simply cover an advert, but the entire sales process.

Six steps to notarisation

Selling a property with RIEDEL follows a set process, every step of which is directly linked to the neighbourhood:

  1. Initial consultation at the branch: clarifying the current situation, timeframe and desired level of confidentiality, in person at the local office.

  2. Valuation with reference to the micro-location: determining the achievable value based on location, plot, property condition and the prices achieved for comparable properties in the specific sub-area.

  3. Marketing strategy: determining whether to sell discreetly off-market or publicly, and targeting the appropriate buyer group.

  4. Approaching buyers and property brochure: Directly contacting prospective buyers on the branch’s register and, in the case of public marketing, producing a high-quality property brochure.

  5. Viewings and negotiations: qualified prospective buyers, price negotiations and credit checks.

  6. Notary appointment and handover: notarisation, payment of the purchase price and handover of the keys.

The length of this process depends on the property, the asking price and the market conditions. It is not possible to reliably guarantee a fixed timeframe for the sale. However, having all the necessary documentation in order and setting a starting price in line with market conditions will significantly shorten the process.

Documents and preparation for the sale

Missing documents are the most common reason why a sale is delayed. To ensure a smooth and speedy process, these documents should be provided in full at an early stage: an extract from the land register, a current energy performance certificate, building documents and plans, calculations of living and usable floor areas, current floor plans, evidence of modernisation and renovation work, and, in the case of encumbrances, rights or co-ownership shares, the relevant supporting documents. In the case of listed properties in Alt-Bogenhausen, details regarding the listed status and approved works are often required as well.

RIEDEL checks at the outset which documents still need to be obtained and highlights which documents are particularly relevant for the respective group of buyers. Legal and tax issues (such as the capital gains tax holding period for let properties or the consent of multiple heirs in the case of an inherited house) should be clarified by specialists at an early stage. This does not replace legal or tax advice in individual cases.
