New! Real estate Corona crisis: demand increases

These days, many are talking about the second wave that is now coming to Germany but also to the whole world. Already at the beginning, with the Corona pandemic, many economic but also financial news warned that in autumn a wave of insolvencies will come upon us. A logical consequence of insolvency is the loss of property, not only in the form of jewelry, cars or furnishings, of course real estate will also be affected if the rate of insolvencies in Germany increases. Single-family homes but also apartment buildings, with several tenants.

Intestate succession

In principle, the topic of “inheritance and estate” is always in good hands with a (specialist) lawyer. The construction of pre- and post-heirs is complicated. Nevertheless, there are a few easy-to-understand principles that every property owner should know and can also easily implement themselves. Here are some questions that come up again and again and which we will answer in the following.

• Pre-heir and post-heir – what is it all about?
• My mother is the previous heir. Is she allowed to sell her part of the house so easily?
• Is the owner (previous heir) entitled to sell the house without the consent of the subsequent heir or does the latter have to agree to the sale?
• I’m heir apparent, now what?
• House sale despite succession?

Pre-heir – post-heir: what does it mean?

Anyone who wants to bequeath something is free to determine the heirs and can therefore also transfer his or her inheritance to several persons in a staggered manner. The subsequent heir is then the person who receives the inheritance only after another person – the so-called previous heir – has previously inherited. The testator can, for example, choose an occasion or a point in time for the succession to occur, such as coming of age or passing the master’s examination.

The previous and subsequent heirs are both legal successors of the testator. However, they do not form a community of heirs in which they would inherit at the same time, but inherit one after the other due to the instigation of the testator.

Pre- and post-heirs for married couples – safeguarding assets in the family

The inheritance regulation by means of a pre- and post-heir is often used by married couples. In this way, they can ensure that all their joint assets remain in their own family. For this purpose, the spouses each name the other as a pre-heir and the joint children as a post-heir. Even in the event of remarriage after the death of one spouse, the assets cannot be inherited by the new spouse.

Pre-heirs – tasks, duties and rights

Pre-heirs are also referred to as ‘temporary heirs’. This is because they only have limited power of disposal over the estate. Particularly in the case of inherited real estate, this situation has consequences for both sides – i.e. the previous and subsequent heirs. First of all there is the inheritance tax. This is always payable initially by the previous heir.

• The previous heir must pay the inheritance tax from the funds of the previous inheritance.
• The previous heir is only the heir until the next of kin occurs.
• If a property is inherited and occupied by the previous and subsequent heirs themselves, no inheritance tax is payable
• The property must be owner-occupied for at least ten years after acceptance of the inheritance
• The owner-occupied living space must not exceed 200 sqm.
• Only then no inheritance tax is due

Statistics – Heritage in Germany

Read more facts and figures here: Real Estate Statistics. We also have other interesting studies, surveys and statistics on the topic: Inheritance in Germany.

Restriction of disposition – exceptions and rights of the previous heirs in real estate transactions

The previous heir cannot dispose freely of the estate. Inheritance law imposes certain restrictions on the disposal of the estate by the previous heir, because in the event of a subsequent inheritance, the assets should accrue to the subsequent heir undiminished. For example, the previous heir may not sell or give away any property from the estate without the consent of the subsequent heir. The previous heir may use other inheritance items for himself, but he is obliged to compensate the successor for the value of the item after the succession has occurred.

However, the testator may exempt the predecessor from many of these restrictions. This is then referred to as an exempt preheir. The “exempt estate” – which may then also include real estate – may be sold by the exempt previous heir alone, without having to obtain the consent of the subsequent heir.

Pre-inheritance & post-inheritance – advice from a lawyer

Broker tip: Watch out when buying inherited real estate

If a property from an estate is to be sold, there are many details to consider – for the seller and also for the buyer. At the latest here – after a lawyer has also been consulted for advice – the broker should come into play. The experts at Lukinski – Lukinski – have the necessary expertise to help with these complex issues.

Especially important: the real estate agent has the necessary distance to accurately determine the value of an inherited property. With inherited houses, money is often given away unnecessarily because the heir wants to get rid of his inherited property quickly. The opposite is also possible: so many memories and emotions are attached to the inherited house that the value is set too high. The property is then difficult to sell.

Find a broker as a pre-heir

Finding a broker as a pre-heir means paying attention to very special services. This is because the broker must be very familiar with the legal intricacies of succession and the connections between the pre- and post-heir.

Lukinski will perform for you as a pre-heir:

• The neutral valuation of your inherited property
• The professional sifting and arrangement of all documents from the inheritance necessary for the sale
• The professional and sales-promoting staging of your object (photos/videos)
• Your emotional state is given special consideration
• The proper creation of an appealing sales exposé
• The discreet placement of your property in all relevant media
• The analysis of our extensive customer file for suitable buyers
• The discreet organisation and execution of viewing appointments
• The discreet conduct of negotiations with prospective buyers (if desired, without your presence)
• Finalization of the purchase contract in cooperation with notaries

When will the broker be paid?

A reputable agent and real estate salesperson will only be paid upon a successful closing and will discuss their fee rate right at the beginning of the sales process. Openness and transparency are therefore fundamental criteria by which the house seller recognizes the good broker.

How much is inherited in Germany?

Here you can see inheritances and gifts in Germany. The survey ranges from 2008 to 2018 and shows that over 110,000 inheritances are distributed each year. Great potential for dispute if the community of heirs does not agree. Here you can find more interesting studies, surveys and statistics on the topic: Inheritance in Germany.

The right dog – depending on breed and character

A dog can enrich your life as a family member and companion. In the summer with a dog on the road at the lake or in the park makes directly good mood. However, not every dog is suitable for everyone. Often there are allergies to dogs or certain requirements for the character, size or breed.

The Bernese dog – family friendly and loving

The Bernese Mountain Dogs belong to the breed of mountain dogs and have their roots in Switzerland. They reach a body weight of up to 50kg and a height between 60 and 70cm. The dogs are very human oriented and therefore well suited as a family dog. The traits are mainly affectionate, loyal, intelligent and faithful. The dogs are very alert and do not tend to roam. It is important to buy a Bernese puppy from a breeder, as uncontrolled breeding can lead to weaknesses in temperament and hereditary diseases. With respectable breeders Bernersennen puppies cost between 1000 and 1800 euros.

The dogs need a lot of exercise and love long walks. However, they are rather less suitable for fast sports, because their fur is very thick and the body weight is comparatively high. Also too much sun can be very exhausting for the animals. Grooming is very easy, but the new family member will lose tufts of hair during shedding. All in all, a Bernese dog is perfectly suited for families with children who offer the dog plenty of space to play and live.

The Maltese – small and playful

The Maltese is a bright little dog breed. With a body size between 20 and 25 cm and a weight of only 3-4 kg, the dogs are very flexible and can go everywhere with you. The nature of the Maltese is very cheerful, affectionate and active. Despite his size he needs a lot of exercise and wants to be challenged. Long walks or dog sports like agility are no problem for this little dog. At the same time he needs a lot of attention and cuddles to be happy. If a Maltese is not challenged enough, he can quickly become a yapper.

Due to the size, the dog can also be kept in small apartments without any problems. The coat care of the Maltese is somewhat more complex. It can either be clipped every two to three months or it can grow long and be brushed every day. The Maltese is not subject to a coat change, which is why it loses little fur. A Maltese should also be bought from a reputable breeder, otherwise diseases or changes in temperament can occur. At a breeder a Maltese costs between 1000 and 1500 Euro. In conclusion, the Maltese is suitable for families with children, because of its friendly and playful nature, as well as for singles or couples in condominiums, because the small dog does not require much space.

The Pitbull – powerful but affectionate

The powerful pit bulls are between 45 and 55 cm tall and weigh between 17 and 27 kg. However, their bad reputation as fighting dogs is usually not justified. This precedes them due to unserious breeding in the 1990s. When bred correctly, the dogs are very loving, loyal, affectionate and even devoted to people and can be kept as great family dogs and faithful companions.

The Pitbull needs a high physical and mental workout. Long walks, dog sports or search games are just what he needs. The American Pit Bull Terrier or Pit Bulls are on most lists of dangerous dogs. However, if it is made clear from puppyhood who holds the reins, education is guaranteed to be a success and the dogs integrate very affectionately into families. With the right education and the right breeder, the dogs can be very good family dogs. For singles or couples they are very popular because of the affectionate and loyal nature.

Since the breeders of the Elo’s are mainly concerned with the temperament and health of the breed, the dogs come in different sizes.

The dogs are devoted to their masters, are calm to lively in temperament, can stay alone well and adapt well to new environments. They are very child friendly and not impetuous.

The dogs adapt to their master’s circumstances and can therefore be kept in the country as well as in the city. Elo’s also love long walks and always want to experience something new. Due to the lack of hunting instinct, the dogs can move freely in nature. In summary, the dogs are suitable for any age group. Whether singles, couples or families with children, the Elo adapts to all circumstances and is the perfect friend.

The athletic dogs need at least two hours of exercise per day and want to be challenged during this time. An unused Weimaraner can become a real problem for the family. A lot of time and commitment is required to keep such a dog. However, if these points are given, the Weimaraner proves to be a loyal companion. The dogs are especially suitable for experienced dog owners. Be this in a family with children or as a single. A city life is nothing for these dogs, they need a lot of freedom and movement.
