In short

When you sell a house in Austria, location, land, building condition, energy efficiency and comparable sales all matter. For single- and two-family homes, appraisers mainly use the cost approach (land plus building), backed up by comparable sales. What counts: complete documents such as the building permit and plans, a valid energy certificate and an asking price that fits the market.

What a house is worth

Land, building, gut feeling.

Valuing a house is more complex than valuing an apartment. For single- and two-family homes, Austrian valuation law mainly uses the cost approach: land value plus building value plus outdoor improvements. On the market, what comparable houses nearby actually sold for counts too.

What moves the price: plot size and shape, zoning, building condition, renovations, heating and energy efficiency, garden, garage – and the location, from the edge of the Vienna Woods to a town with a commuter-rail connection.

  • Cost approach, comparable sales and market sense combined
  • Renovation needs honestly priced in
  • Potential made visible – such as an extension or splitting the plot

Selling on your own?

When you're better off selling your house yourself.

Honestly: selling on your own can work. You just need a few small things. Check whatever applies to you.

Check whatever applies to you – be honest.

What buyers look at

What gets checked closely on a house.

House buyers look more closely than apartment buyers. If you have the answers ready, you sell with more confidence.

  • Roof & facade

    Age and condition of the roof, insulation and facade – often the biggest costs after buying.

  • Heating & energy

    Type and age of the heating system, energy certificate, a possible switch to renewable energy.

  • Basement & moisture

    A dry basement, drainage, the condition of the foundations – buyers and appraisers look especially closely here.

  • Windows & building systems

    Windows, electrical, plumbing and bathrooms: what was renewed, and when?

  • Plot & boundaries

    Property lines, access, easements and zoning – clarity builds trust.

  • Expansion & potential

    Attic conversion, extension, splitting the plot: what do the building regulations allow?

A house sells through its pictures.

Drone footage shows the plot, garden and surroundings at a glance. Add professional photos taken at the right time of day and video – so buyers feel at home before the viewing.

Documents

What you need to sell your house.

Depending on the municipality and the year of construction, the list can vary – we'll check it together with you.

  • Current land register extract
  • Energy certificate, no more than 10 years old
  • Building permit and submitted plans
  • Completion notice or occupancy permit
  • Zoning information
  • Proof of renovations (roof, windows, heating)
  • Purchase contract or court transfer order – how you acquired the house

and more – the full list as a free PDF (in German)

Taxes & costs

What you'll pay when you sell.

The profit from selling a house is generally subject to 30% real estate income tax. If you built the house yourself and never rented it out, the builder's exemption can make the gain on the building tax-free – but not on the land. If it was your main residence, the main-residence exemption may apply.

For property acquired before April 2002 ("old property"), a flat rate applies: effectively 4.2% of the sale price through the end of 2026, 6% from 2027, and 18% or 21% for land that was rezoned. On top of that comes the agent's commission (at most 3% plus VAT – 3.6% in total). Depending on the house, these costs may also come your way – best to plan for them right away:

  • Costs of releasing an existing mortgage, if any
  • Costs of having the purchase contract reviewed
  • Costs of an energy certificate if you don't have one
  • Possibly your moving costs

Fixer-upper or teardown

Even an old house has its price.

Not every house is freshly renovated – and it doesn't have to be. Every condition has its own buyers. What matters is being honest about what needs doing and making the potential visible.

  1. Some work needed

    Light renovation

    Who buys
    Families who like to do things themselves
    What we show
    An honest list of what needs doing – and how great it will look afterwards
  2. Lots of work needed

    Full renovation

    Who buys
    DIY renovators and investors with an eye for good bones
    What we show
    Structure, layout and options for an extension or addition
  3. Build new

    Teardown

    Who buys
    Developers and buyers who are mainly after the land
    What we show
    Plot size, zoning and what can be built there

It's not the condition alone that sets the price – it's the possibilities.

Selling while you live there

Sell while you still live there.

Most houses are sold while the owners still live in them. Here's how your everyday life stays calm:

  • Viewings bundled into set appointments
  • Only pre-screened buyers
  • A later handover date can be agreed in the purchase contract
  • Professional photos in one single, well-prepared session
  • Discreet marketing if you prefer – no sign on the garden fence

Why Immo Rebellen

What your house will really bring.

We tell you what your house will really bring on the market – and show you in black and white how we got there. Not a number from our gut, but real data: prices actually paid for comparable houses from the land register, the houses currently for sale in your area, and every adjustment for condition, land and location.

That way you can follow every step and decide based on facts. Then we get the most out of it – with images that stop the scroll and reach far beyond the property portals.

  • Real sale prices of comparable homes from the land register
  • Current competition in your area
  • Every adjustment up or down clearly explained
  • Handled personally by the managing directors

The cost of not knowing

Lessons learned the hard way are the most expensive.

If you sell without experience, you usually lose two things: money and time. The mistakes happen quietly – and chip away at your proceeds bit by bit.

Your potential proceeds

  1. 1

    A price based on gut feeling

    Start too high and the listing sits for months – and then comes the price cut.

  2. 2

    Negotiating without experience

    When it's your own home, you give in faster than you need to.

  3. 3

    Photos that fall flat

    Phone snapshots instead of drone and professional photos: fewer interested buyers, fewer offers.
