The standard Luxembourg model charges the seller a commission — the buyer pays nothing to the agent, but receives nothing in return. No independent advice, no negotiation support, no one genuinely working for their interests.
At zeas.immo we have redesigned that model on every side. For buyers, a transparent two-part fee tied entirely to results. For sellers, a single commission with no hidden costs. For landlords, a mandatory 50/50 split with the tenant as required by Luxembourg law since August 2024.

In the standard Luxembourg market, the agent at the table represents the seller. The buyer pays nothing — and gets nothing in return. Our buyer mandate changes that: we represent you only, with a fee structure that aligns our interests directly with yours.
Our buyer representation fee has two parts. The engagement fee is due when the mandate is signed. If we negotiate a saving on the asking price, the whole engagement fee comes off the performance fee, so you are never charged twice. If you buy and we did not beat the asking price, half the engagement fee comes back.
When we take a selling mandate, yours is the only property of its type in your village we are actively marketing. No internal competition for our attention, no pressure to reduce your price to move inventory. One fee, one focus.
Our rental commission is one month's rent excluding charges, excl. VAT — the standard set by the règlement grand-ducal of 20 January 1972. Since 1 August 2024, that commission must be split equally between landlord and tenant under the loi du 23 juillet 2024 (introduced as bill n° 7642), which amended the loi modifiée du 21 septembre 2006 sur le bail à usage d'habitation. As landlord, your share is 50% of one month's rent excl. charges, excl. VAT.
The 50/50 split is mandatory for all standard residential leases signed since that date. Any contractual clause charging the full commission to either party alone is null and void. The only specific provision concerns coliving arrangements, where a fixed commission of €1,500 incl. VAT applies — €750 incl. VAT per party.
All amounts exclude 17% VAT unless noted. Use our property cost calculator to model your full acquisition cost including registration and notary fees.
