Customer Feedback

Below are several of our clients that have chosen Stuttgart Realtors as their rental team.


We needed to find a single story three-bedroom house for our family of five, and Stuttgart Realtors provided spectacular and timely service. Their website has excellent pictures and information, and Frank and Bernd provided service above and beyond the typical immobilien. They found us a house before my first appointment with the base housing office, and handled everything from phone, internet, utilities... even shuttled around our whole family to look! I would recommend Stuttgart Realtors to anyone relocating, especially if you are in need of housing quickly.

I cannot say enough about how pleased I am with the level of service and competency of Stuttgart Realtors. I wanted an urban flat, close to the train, big enough to entertain and to fit my 18th and 19th century furniture, close to my office - and one that accommodated the needs of my dog. Wow! Sometimes when you ask for the world - you get it! Stuttgart Realtors took the time to understand my needs and as a result I was able to find my apartment very quickly. They were also brilliant when it came to finalizing the contract and other paperwork, serving as liaison with the landlord, clarifying the German rental law and working me the details so that the entire contract process was quick, error free and painless. I recommend without reservation Stuttgart Realtors; it was a pleasure to work together with their team - start to finish.

Working with Frank was easy, he provided knowledgeable, flexible, and rapid service in my apartment search. I would not hesitate to recommend his company, and intend to use him for future apartment needs.

My family of five and my dog were moving from New York to Germany, with little time to prepare. We needed to find a home that was large enough, suitable for our children, accomodated our dog, near a train stop and in our budget. Stuttgart realtors found us the place we eventually rented. They were there to escort us to the home each time we wanted to see it and/or take photos even before signing the contract. They assisted with the language barrier, facilitating the exchange between us and our German landlord. They were available day and evening to talk, fax and address our concerns. Months later we needed a copy of our transaction for tax purposes so I simply contacted Frank and it was provided within days. This review comes with an outstanding recommendation for Stuttgart Realtors.

I was well taken care of in finding a home for my family. I arrived in Stuttgart under a very unique situation that deviated from the standard procedure for ensuring every aspect of renting a house under German law was covered. They were very patient and worked with the government finance office and member to meet everyone's expectations. The staff was very friendly and pleasant to deal with. I never felt pressured into renting a home. They were very courteous and allowed my family and I to determine if the house was what we wanted. I recommend them to any and all families looking to reside off base in the German community. The only word of advice is, regardless of what the housing office says, ensure you discuss with your service's disbursing office to understand all entitlements and how they are paid as each service has different policies and regulations.

I highly recommend Stuttgart Realtors, and specifically Mr Bernhard Braun and Mr Frank Volkheimer. Stuttgart is a very competitive housing market, and the task of househunting can quickly overwhelm most newcomers. Stuttgart Realtors lists a wide range of high quality housing options for every need, from studio apartments downtown to single family houses in the suburbs. Their website is comprehensive, easy to navigate, and updated daily so you always have real time information of available properties with all the critical information you're looking for...size, location, costs, distances to US facilities, and lots of photos. They are very experienced with the American community, well versed in our specific legal lease requirements, and well known to the Housing Office. PCSing in from France, we were able to make a short househunting trip in advance of reporting in to Stuttgart. We scheduled and viewed a range of available properties in one day that met our personal requirements, made our decision, negotiated the lease, vetted it through the Housing Office, and had everything signed, sealed and delivered the following day. Easiest PCS we've had in 26 years in the Army.

Highly recommended! Stuttgart Realtors was extremely professionally and efficient. I had spent nearly a month and a half looking for an apartment, with no luck. Stuttgart Realtors not only had a wide selection of apartments to choose from, but they helped me from start to finish in narrowing down the selection based on all the criteria given to the final negotiations. Their website was easy to navigate and the Realtor I worked with was excellent. I found my apartment the first day I came to Stuttgart Realtors, and signed my contract less than a week later. For Americans looking to rent/buy in Stuttgart, you can not go wrong with this realty.

I dealt with a few Immobilien before you and the attributes I mention below impressed me and clearly set your company apart from the others I dealt with.
a. You actually "listened" to what I "wanted" without questioning my criteria.
b. You promptly offered mulitple locations to view, each one of them within my criteria.
c. You alwavs answered my e-mails within a very short time.
d. You promptly negotiated with the Landlord to help me obtain the best rental price as well as minimize the deposit.
e. Your knowledge of forms and procedures used in our Housing Division as well as in the German Community was invaluable.
f. Most importantly, you and my Real Estate Agent were always very courteous, respectful and helpful.
I have and will continue to recommend your company to any new personnel I come in contact with.
Good luck and thank you again for your invaluable help.

These guys are the best! I'm a really picky (OCD) person who knows what I want. I gave my must have's and have nots to Bernd & Frank and they found a property for me in less than a week. I've lived abroad for over ten years and until now have had to put up with what I could get rather than what I want. The paperwork and legalities were taken care of superbly and the best part, is that even after you move in, they're on call to help you out. If you're moving to the Stuttgart area, you can't go wrong with these guys. They'll get you what you want. I wish everything in Germany was as easy as getting a home through Stuttgart Realtors.

I was unable to find a home after many attempts on my own. After contacting Stuttgart Realtors, Mr. Volkheimer showed me a home that matched all my requirements. I had quite a few features that I wanted in a home and found everything I wanted in the first property he showed me. The staff at Stuttgart Realtors always responded promptly to all my inquiries displaying superb customer service. As an American rentor, they worked closely with the Military Housing Authority on post and myself ensuring all documents were completed as necesssary. I appreciate the extra lengths they went for me and the assurances given through what can be a difficult process. I highly recommend Mr. Volkheimer and Stuttgart Realtors.

Hands down the best part of moving to Stuttgart was working with Stuttgart Realtors. Bernd and Frank are fantastic realtors and wonderful people. If you are not going to live on base, contacting them is an absolute must. Moving to a new country is never easy and the housing market in Stuttgart is difficult at best - they made finding a place to live easy. If you have any questions about moving to Stuttgart or Stuttgart Realtors, please contact me at eiter lhaverlak@hotmail.com or luke.haverlak@us.army.mil. Thank you, Luke

We could not have been more pleased with the quality of customer service we received from Bernd and Frank. They were timely and upfront with our initial contact, and continued throughout the process of finding and moving into a home. It was quite easy to see that they had both our and the landlords interests in mind, and assured that the two met in the middle. Bernd even went as far as helping out with a few translation items after we moved into our home. If anybody is questioning which realtor to go with, go with Bernd and Frank!!

I was very satisfied with the services of both Mr. B Braun and Frank Volkheimer. Services were speedy, friendly and very high classed. Excellent correspondence. The apartment listed is absolutely spectacular and I look forward to living there. Thanks so much.
Marie Springer


The website was very useful and helped me find my home in only one day! Bernhard took the time to show me exactly what I was looking for and they ensured my move-in went smoothly. I've already referred several friends and colleagues to the site.
Kelly McDermott


Saved me a lot of time and money by showing me only the houses that suited my needs. Thank you!
Bruce Shortnacy


I used this website to find my apartment! Bernd and his colleagues were very informative and helpful. They made all of my appointments with the landlord and were there to clarify any questions or concerns that I had I would highly recommend them to anyone new to the area!

You all are great! Thanks for helping me find the right apartment that fits my needs. I really appreciate you all providing support throughout the entire process. Again, thanks so much for your help!

Michael Witt


Bernd and Frank were fantastic! They stayed with us from the beginning of our search all the way to the end, when they helped us find the perfect home! Both Bernd and Frank graciously drove us to all of the prospective home locations, because we did not yet have a car of our own. No other immobilien supported us like they did!

They are warm and professional and made the process of moving almost easy! They found us the most beautiful house with a great landlord, rent that is right in our budget and we even got to move in early! They even educated us about all of the details of our new home: garbage pick up, parking,and insider tips on the surrounding area. We already feel at home after only one month here. We very highly recommend them!
Tara Whitmore


We are both so appreciative to you for helping us in your beautiful country! We look forward to getting out to see more of Germany in the coming months and are assured that we will meet many friendly welcoming people like you.

Bernd stays true to his word when he says he is ALWAYS available. He has been able to assist me with all my needs anytime I have needed them.

They were able to find the right house at the right location for our family to feel at home.
Dr. O. Ojeda, Esq.


Frank and Bernd are great! Working with them to find a house was stress free. They are very professional, easy to contact and prompt for appointments. They carefully listened to what we were looking for and found us the perfect place to rent in less than a month. They are experienced with the US Military special needs and the Housing Office immediately approved our lease contract. They stayed in contact to make sure everything was to our satisfaction long after all the paperwork was signed. Two very professional and friendly guys.

Silke and Bernd provided very friendly, professional service. They showed us a great selection of houses and we're very happy with the one we chose. We recommend them highly to anyone looking for a home in the Stuttgart area.
Karin Shuey


I just wanted to take the time to tell you that Cindy and I really appreciate the homes you are showing us. Even though we may not have picked one yet, I will tell you that you are the only ones - in my opinion - that are showing us homes of quality. In addition, we really appreciate the concern you've show us in wanting to ensure that we pick a home that is right for us - not just pushing something on us. I know it is your job to work for the owner/landlord, but your concern for our needs is evident and appreciated.
John Loffert


Frank and Bernd were invaluable in finding me the perfect place to live. They were extremely helpful and friendly and many times went above and beyond what was necessary to ensure a smooth process. They are wonderful and knowledgeable about the area. The apartment they found for me is perfect. Thanks for all your help.
MAJ Christine A. Gaudette


Stuttgart Realtors was extremely helpful in finding us a wonderful home to live in! We feel right at home in the house we found with Stuttgart Realtors. Although the staff was very busy, they took the time to help us out and get to know us, so that they knew our needs and could put us in the ideal house. Thank you again!
Christopher Gabriel


Bernd and Frank at Stuttgart Realtors did a fantastic job responding and helping us find a home. Despite the difficult housing availability situation in Stuttgart, we were able to secure a very nice place in only a few days. Bernd responded to every e-mail within a day and I was able to talk to Frank whenever necessary with any question. I especially appreciated that these gentlemen were brutally honest about the housing situation and the need to make fast decisions. I also appreciated that they represented my interests with the landlord, helping us with translation, document preparation, and negotiations, including inspecting the premises and helping note potential damage for repair. They were also extremely patient with paperwork and other administrative matters that became delayed or took longer than expected, and continued to help us with any issues after the lease was signed and we moved in. Yes, Stuttgart Realtors earned a good fee, but in the end, we ended up with a fantastic place that had everything we were looking for. All in all, I highly recommend contacting Bernd or Frank to help you find a place in Stuttgart!

We had a wonderful experience working with Bernd and Frank, from beginning to end. We had to find a home quickly when we arrived and their assistance proved vital. We found a fabulous large home in a village we truly enjoy. Bernd and Frank always met with us at our convenience and provided informative and professional service. They took care of all the details and ensured we got situated in a home that met all of our needs.
Jennifer and Doug


Immediately, Frank understood my desires and was completely honest with my property inquiries. He quickly steered me to the property that was special. And, he couldn’t have been more right! Bernhard’s efforts to close the deal were above and beyond. I didn’t expect to develop the friendly relationship with this superb team that I did. We absolutely love our new home and have Frank and his team to thank.
Karen and Brian Whitten


Von Anfang an ein gutes Gefühl: freundlich, kompetent, zuverlässig, flexibel und absolut professionell. Mit Bernhard Braun fühlten wir uns vom ersten Telefonat über die Besichtigung bis zum Mietvertragsabschluss mit unseren Mietern ausgesprochen wohl und bestens begleitet. Das zielgerichtete und dabei menschlich ausgesprochen angenehme Vorgehen mit großer Sensibilität für das Verhältnis Mieter-Vermieter hat uns genauso überzeugt wie das präzise Erfassen der Fakten und das perfekt darauf abgestimmte Resultat. An dieser Stelle nochmals vielen Dank - und bis zum nächsten Mal! Eine Empfehlung für jeden, der einen reibungslosen Ablauf und ein optimales Ergebnis schätzt.
M. Rothfischer-Künzler + R. Künzler


Was mir von Anfang an gut gefallen hat ist, dass ich mich auf Ihre Aussage verlassen konnte und ich nicht das negativ belegte "Maklergefühl" spürte. Sie beide sind stets freundlich und verbindlich an die Aufgabe heran gegangen. Dass ich Ihnen Vertrauen entgegen bringen konnte (z.B. mit der Aushändigung von Schlüsseln), hat mich doch sehr beeindruckt.
W. Urban


Was Sie besonders auszeichnet ist die absolute Einhaltung vereinbarter Termine und das notwendige Fingerspitzengefühl für die jeweils zusammenpassenden Miet-Interessenten. Die Erstellung von Übergabe- und Übernahmeprotokollen, sowie die beweissichernden Fotoaufnahmen sind in Ihrem Hause obligatorisch. Ich bedanke mich nochmals für die angenehme Zusammenarbeit und werde im Bedarfsfall wieder gerne auf Sie zukommen.
D. Müller


Obwohl wir anfangs skeptisch gegenüber der Vermarktung über ein Maklerbüro waren, haben Sie uns mit den erbrachten Leistungen vollkommen überzeugen können:
* Beste Beratung schon in der Renovierungsphase,
* absolut zuverlässige Einhaltung aller Termine,
* passender, seriöser Mieter,
* sensible, faire Handhabung bei der Vertragsgestaltung,
** Super Service!
Wir bedanken uns für den angenehmen Kontakt und werden uns gerne wieder an Sie wenden !
C. Penka & W.R. Becker


Wir bedanken uns für die erfolgreiche Vermittlung und die hervorragende Betreuung in der Vermittlung unserer Häuser. Ihre kompetente und fachkundige Vorbereitung hat uns den Abschluss des Mietvertrages sehr erleichtert. Mit großem Engagement haben Sie bereits im Vorfeld alle Fragen geklärt und waren jederzeit ansprechbar. Stuttgart Realtors war uns bei der Vermietung ein zuverlässiger und korrekter Partner, auf dessen Dienste wir auch zukünftig gerne setzen!
Familie Schott


Eigentlich wollten wir unser Haus verkaufen- konnten unsere Preisvorstellungen aber bei der gegenwärtigen Wirtschaftslage leider nicht realisieren. Hier machten Sie uns den Vorschlag an die von Ihnen betreuten Kunden für eine überschaubare Zeit zu vermieten um so eventuell bei einem Wiederanziehen der Preise den Verkauf nach Mietende doch noch zu ermöglichen. Mit unseren neuen Mietern und den Konditionen sind wir sehr zufrieden! Danke vielmals!
M. Preuss


Vielen Dank für Euren stets freundlichen und freundschaftlichen Kontakt. Ich habe mich in guten, seriösen und professionellen Händen gefühlt. Sehr zu schätzen empfand ich die hohe Qualität an Mietern. Ablauf und weitere Unterstützungen im Nachgang wurde zur vollsten Zufriedenheit umgesetzt. Vielen Dank auf diesem Weg an Euer Team. Macht weiter so und wenn sich bei mir wieder was ergibt, seid Ihr mein erster Ansprechpartner !!! DANKE
