Mr. Lodge Gmbh Wohnen Auf Zeit

What Mr. Lodge Gmbh Wohnen Auf Zeit does

Mr. Lodge GmbH Wohnen Auf Zeit is a Munich-based real estate brokerage founded in 1992 that operates as a dual-sided intermediary in the furnished temporary rental (Wohnen auf Zeit) and residential property sales markets. The company brokers approximately 2,300 apartments and houses per year, with two physical offices — its headquarters at Barer Str. 32 in Munich and a branch in Rottach-Egern serving the Tegernsee region — and supports customers in 20 languages through a team of approximately 80 employees. It positions itself as Munich's market leader for furnished apartment and house rentals and serves a customer base that includes individual tenants (expats, project-based professionals, commuters), corporate relocation clients, property owners seeking furnished letting or full-service sales brokerage, and residential buyers.

The operating platform combines a multilingual website portfolio spanning 20+ country-code domains with embedded 360° virtual tour technology from Matterport and Feelestate, professional in-house photography and video production, complimentary home staging, interior-design consultation, e-contracting via DocuSign, and a mortgage-financing calculator integrated with Interhyp AG. The company holds ImmobilienScout24 Gold Partner and Immowelt Platinum Partner status and is an IVD member. Distribution is direct — via two offices, phone/email inquiry handling, and the self-serve online search platform — with no third-party reseller or marketplace channel.

Mr. Lodge earns revenue almost exclusively through transaction fees. Landlords pay a duration-scaled letting commission of 16.50% to 181.50% net of one month's rent (19.64% to 215.99% gross including 19% VAT) for furnished lettings, while buyers pay 2.5% plus VAT (2.975% incl. VAT) of the notarial purchase price when Mr. Lodge represents both sides. Property owners and landlords are the primary paying customers; tenants are not charged a separate brokerage fee. The company is privately held, management-owned (Managing Director Norbert Verbücheln), and reported a 16% sales increase in H1 2026 versus the prior-year period.

Revenue model

1. Landlord Letting Commission (Mieter-Vermittlung): Mr. Lodge charges landlords a commission based on the total rental duration, structured as a percentage of one month's rent. Rates scale with lease length: 16.50% (1 month) rising to 215.99% (11+ months, incl. 19% VAT). The company provides full-service letting including property presentation, tenant sourcing, contract management, and ongoing support during the tenancy.
2. Buyer-Side Property Purchase Commission: When acting as the intermediary for property purchases, Mr. Lodge charges buyers a commission typically of 2.5% plus 19% VAT (2.975% incl. VAT) of the notarial purchase price, in line with German law requiring equal split between buyer and seller when the broker represents both parties and buyers are consumers. The company guides buyers from property search through notary appointment.

Broad incumbents

• Engel & Völkers: German-headquartered global real estate brokerage active in Munich and Tegernsee. Comparable to Mr. Lodge on residential sales brokerage and luxury property services, though Engel & Völkers operates at broader scale and across commercial asset classes.
• ImmobilienScout24: Germany's largest real estate listing portal and a key distribution channel for Mr. Lodge (Gold Partner status). While not a direct broker, it competes for tenant attention and sets the dominant marketplace for residential rentals and sales in Germany.
• Immowelt: Major German real estate listing portal and a Platinum Partner with Mr. Lodge. Comparable as a competing listing and lead-generation channel for residential rentals and sales in Munich and across Germany.

Emerging players

• Nestpick: Berlin-headquartered international furnished rental marketplace focused on expats and students. Overlaps with Mr. Lodge on the expat/corporate furnished-rental product, but operates at broader international scope with a digital-first model.
• McMakler: Berlin-based tech-enabled residential real estate brokerage active in major German cities including Munich. Comparable to Mr. Lodge on residential sales and rental brokerage, though McMakler pursues a hybrid digital-plus-local-agent model.
• HousingAnywhere: Rotterdam-based online rental marketplace for student and young professional housing across Europe. Comparable to Mr. Lodge on the international-tenant rental intermediation model, though it serves a younger and more transient demographic.

Direct peers

• Homelike: Cologne-based online platform for furnished long-term rentals (30+ days) across Europe, with strong corporate housing client base. Comparable to Mr. Lodge in furnishing level, stay duration, and target customer (expats and corporate clients).
• Wunderflats: Berlin-based online marketplace for furnished mid-term rentals (1+ months) across Germany and Europe. Directly competes with Mr. Lodge in the same furnished-temporary-let category; the difference is Wunderflats is a digital-first platform while Mr. Lodge is a relationship-driven brokerage.
• Homeklinge: German furnished mid-term rental platform focused on cities including Munich. Targets expats and corporate clients with a tech-enabled, broker-light model, putting it in direct overlap with Mr. Lodge's tenant and landlord audiences.

Regional players

• Blackwood GmbH: Berlin-based luxury furnished rental and property management company. Comparable to Mr. Lodge on premium furnished rentals and corporate housing, though focused on Berlin rather than Munich/Bavaria.
