In residential lettings the commission is capped at two months' net cold rent plus VAT under § 556h BGB, and the agent may only charge one party (no double commission). For sales the Bestellerprinzip under the 2020 agent commission act applies strictly. Extending or continuing a tenancy may not be commissioned again. Reclaim the commission within three years: request it in writing with the legal basis and a deadline — if unsuccessful, court action remains an option.
