Auction portals differ in how they help you assess a property. Compare the AI assistant, risk analysis, calculations and search alerts. See what ZVG Melder offers and which features other providers describe publicly.
Assessing a property with ZVG Melder
Understand risks. Ask questions. Calculate with your own figures.
The property page brings document analysis, your questions and your calculations together. Use them to identify what still needs checking before you bid.
From Premium or for an unlocked property
Ask questions directly about the documents.
Use your own words to ask about condition, use or documented rights. The assistant uses the available property documents and shows source passages where available for verification. Missing evidence is identified.
Example of a document question
“What does the appraisal say about damp and renovation needs?”
The answer depends on the available documents. Check the cited source passages.
Premium: 20 questions per day. Professional: 100 questions per day. The property unlocked for free includes 10 questions in total.
From Premium or for an unlocked property
Five risk categories to guide your appraisal review.
See separately where the analysis identifies a need for further checks. Classes 1–6 help you interpret the categories and read the relevant details.
Structure & condition
Rights & permits
Economics & letting
Location & surroundings
Information quality
Explanations and available original quotes help you trace findings to their sources. The assessment depends on the documents available.
Turn a finding into a concrete check.
The review plan organises unresolved points, suggests next steps and links available sources. Use it to ask focused questions of the court, municipality or relevant specialists.
From Premium or for an unlocked property
Calculate with your intended bid.
Adjust your bid, equity, financing, rent and costs. The profitability calculation shows how your assumptions affect capital requirements, cash flow and yield.
Custom costs from Premium; profitability from Professional; both for an unlocked property
See what is still uncertain.
A separate grade from A to D indicates how reliable the data foundation is. Missing information and unresolved checks remain visible, so you can take unknowns into account.
Information grade A–D public; full analysis from Premium or for an unlocked property
Find an auction through a saved search, review its documents and keep monitoring it: these steps remain connected to the same property. The free tier includes one saved search with a daily e-mail about new matches.
AI analyses and answers may contain errors. Check the cited sources. The official announcement and original documents remain authoritative; calculations depend on your assumptions.

Profitability calculations using your own assumptions

Which features do other providers describe?
Other providers also advertise AI analyses; Objektakte additionally describes document questions with source evidence. What matters is which features help you assess a specific property and how well you can verify the results.
ZVG Melder is our own product. This comparison records publicly described features; it is not an independent quality test. We have not compared paid accounts or the quality of results.
Features according to publicly available provider information. Each provider has source links and a verification date.

Comparison with the official source
The ZVG-Portal of the state justice administrations publishes official announcements. It remains the authoritative source; private portals support search and preparation.
The official ZVG-Portal is the source of the announcements. ZVG Melder combines this data with search, notifications and analysis of available appraisals. The directory is free. Premium costs 9,99 €/month and Professional 19,99 €/month; you can unlock one eligible auction free of charge, once per account.

What you still need the ZVG-Portal for
It is the official and legally authoritative source for dates, cancellations and the wording of the announcement. In case of any discrepancy, the publication of the competent district court applies.
It works without an account and without cost – for an occasional look at a single procedure it is entirely sufficient.
Participating courts provide appraisals, exposés and photos there for direct download; ZVG Melder refers to this official source.
Frequently asked questions about the comparison
Yes. The AI assistant uses the auction's available documents and shows source passages where available for verification. Missing evidence is identified. Premium includes 20 questions per day, Professional 100. Without an active subscription, after registration and e-mail verification, you can unlock one eligible auction for free, once per account; this includes 10 document questions in total.
ZVG Melder combines five risk categories with explanations, available source evidence, a review plan and document questions. You can also record your own costs and explore bid, financing and rent assumptions in the profitability calculation. Access depends on your plan or property unlock. Other providers also offer analysis features; the table shows what the pages reviewed describe.
For searching and monitoring: yes. ZVG Melder uses the same official announcements as the ZVG-Portal, makes them searchable nationwide in one search, saves searches and notifies by e-mail. No private provider replaces the legally authoritative announcement itself – in case of discrepancies the district court's publication always applies.
The official portal is the place to find the authoritative announcement and documents provided by the courts. ZVG Melder adds search across 14 federal states, saved searches, notifications and review of available documents. Document questions, risk categories and your own calculations help you prepare in one place.
The basis is the district courts' official announcements, which ZVG Melder imports daily and supplements with key figures and, where documents are available, AI analysis. Import and analysis may contain errors. ZVG Melder is not a justice portal; the competent court's announcement remains authoritative.
Third-party information comes from the linked public pages. Each source carries its verification date. ZVG Melder information reflects its documented features and plans. Features and prices may change.
