Nowadays, the easiest and fastest option for most people looking for an office is to use an online portal.
Quickly get a rough overview online
A selection of properties is identified on the relevant real estate portals using standardized search criteria (location, size, maximum rent).
Advantages:
- Information and photos available online
- quick and easy access to property listings
- quick overview of the market
- Anonymity
- Contact via contact form, also for viewings
- Information about providers
Disadvantages:
- no personal advisor who has all the information about your requirements
- high duplication of offers due to multiple listings (please note: this may result in double commission fees!)
- Listings are almost exclusively placed by real estate agents, which means you save no time or money
- no targeted selection based on your own requirements (workplace concepts, room design, space efficiency, technical requirements, etc.)
- high time expenditure due to independent filtering of all offers
- Coupling processes cannot be mapped (e.g., office search with conditional search for new tenants)
- no legal support
- no consideration of the market environment

Offline for targeted property selection thanks to personal advice
Companies that do not have time to deal with different providers and duplicate offers can hire a personal consultant. Our consultants will guide you through the search for office real estate in 10 professional steps. One of our consultants will accompany you every step of the way, from recording all your search criteria and identifying suitable properties and arranging viewings to advising you on the conclusion of the contract and providing support afterwards.
Advantages:
- personal consultant who has all the information about your requirements
- personal impression of the consultant during the initial meeting, including references
- Fees are usually only payable after the rental agreement has been successfully concluded
- often commission-free offers can be obtained through the agent/consultant (if not already offered commission-free)
- targeted property selection after reviewing the feasibility of your requirements
- Time savings
- Off-market offers are presented (not all properties are available online!)
- no duplicate offers
- 100% market overview, as we check all offers for you and exclude nothing
- Coupling processes can be mapped (e.g., office search with conditional search for new tenants)
- short-term market overview also possible (you will receive the offers electronically from Larbig & Mortag as quickly as possible)
- Anonymity guaranteed by the real estate consultant (we offer you a confidentiality agreement for this purpose)
- Consideration of the market environment (we advise you on the feasibility of your ideas)
- initial legal assessment and recommendation of a tenancy law specialist for detailed contract review
Disadvantages:
- none, as the online search is only an initial orientation tool and you will almost exclusively be put in contact with an agent via an online portal
