No jargon, real numbers.
Questions internationals actually ask
›Can I get a mortgage in Germany on a work visa or Blue Card?
Often, yes. German banks care less about your passport than about stable income, your residence status, some own capital, and a clean SCHUFA. Many internationals assume they're locked out when they aren't.
›What are the real costs of buying, beyond the price?
Roughly 10–12% on top: Grunderwerbsteuer (3.5% in Bavaria), notary + land registry (~1.5–2%), agent (up to ~3.57%), plus financing and renovation. On an investment property, most of this is tax-relevant.
›How does property save tax in Germany?
Through AfA (depreciation): you deduct part of the building value from taxable income every year, plus loan interest and costs — while a tenant pays down your loan. It's how the system is designed to reward providing housing. (Not tax advice — we bring in an English-speaking Steuerberater for your case.)
›Do you speak English and handle everything?
Yes. Everything runs in English, end to end. That's the whole point of Home in Germany.
