German law requires that payment for newly-build apartments are to be made in seven installments during construction
- The first installment is 25% and further payments range from 2% to 28% depending on the construction stage.
- A buyer purchasing a newly built property in the middle or at the end of the construction period is to pay in all the previous installments at once.
- A mortgage buyer usually makes a 40–50% downpayment to the lending bank. The bank pays the developer, and the buyer repays the mortgage loan.
- The law prescribes that if the developer fails to complete construction, the buyer must be compensated in full for the payments made.
