Company mission

To offer customers a platform for real estate transactions that ensures the best services through the combination of local expertise and digital processes.

Our take

McMakler is a technology-driven real estate transaction platform that offers innovative solutions that benefit both buyers and sellers. With a presence across all major German cities, McMakler offers clients an array of options for property transactions. It provides advice across new and traditional marketing channels and manages customer marketing strategies, all backed by an extensive property portfolio. It also offers a free property valuation service, helping it stand out in a market where valuation is often quite a pricey affair.

In the previous year, the company encountered some challenges, grappling with the impact of soaring interest rates and construction costs that cast a shadow over the German real estate market. As a result, McMakler had to make the difficult decision of downsizing its workforce and revising its valuation downwards. Nevertheless, CEO Felix Jahn is confident the company will achieve month-by-month profitability by the end of 2023, with plans to secure additional funding injections for the company's growth.
