• If you are interested in a state-owned property, please pay attention to the corresponding advertisements and respond to these advertisements if you are interested.
• The authorities will then check whether the formal and legal requirements for the sale have been met, for example whether the property may be used for the desired purpose and whether you are solvent.
• If everything fits, you will receive a purchase offer or a bidding process will take place if there are several interested parties.
• In the next step, the purchase price and contractual conditions are agreed between you and the authorities.
• The purchase contract is then notarized by a notary, which is required by law.
• Once it has been signed, the purchase price is paid.
• The transfer of ownership is then entered in the land register, making you the legal owner.
• Finally, the property is officially handed over to you.

The specific deadlines may vary depending on the authority, federal state and procedure. Please contact the responsible authority in good time to ensure that you do not miss any deadlines.

As a rule, you should expect several weeks to a few months.
