Choosing an estate agent can be difficult when you are about to sell or buy a home. Although the larger, traditional estate agency chains may seem like the safest choice, these agents charge up to 85.000 kr.+ in fees to help you with your property transaction. So it can be a good idea to think carefully about which estate agent you want to use. Here at Brikk we offer an A-Z service, local agents and full transparency, for only 12.500 kr. That means you get exactly the same service you know from the traditional agents, at a markedly lower price. Read this blog post and find out how we can do all this for just 12.500 kr.
Breaking with the traditional structures
In the old days, before portals such as Boliga and Boligsiden, a property transaction most often started in the physical estate agency shops. That was where people could go if they wanted to sell or buy a home in the local area where the shop was located. This is no longer the case. Today, around 98% of all property transactions start online, including through the property portals mentioned above. That means the physical agency shops are no longer used in the same way and, in many cases, are practically empty. Despite this, many larger estate agency chains choose to keep expanding and opening shops around the country. The costs of opening these shops, and subsequently running them, are one of the reasons why you as a customer pay a very high fee at the traditional agency chains.
Here at Brikk we think this is a problem. That is why we have chosen to create an estate agency business that breaks with these traditional structures and gives the power back to the customer. In practice, this means that you as a customer do not have to pay for our offices or our growth. You only pay for what it actually costs to sell or buy a home. At the same time you are guaranteed exactly the same service from a local, professional agent as at one of the traditional chains.
Digital experts
As described earlier, practically all property transactions start online today. That is why it is more important than ever that estate agents are good at digital marketing, so that you have the best possible chance of getting your home sold. Not all agency chains offer digital marketing as part of your home sale, though, and those that do usually charge several thousand kroner for the service, as they hire external companies to handle it. It can thus end up costing you a lot of money to have your home marketed on online channels with these estate agents.
At Brikk we are digital experts and do everything ourselves. This means, among other things, that we can offer our customers tailored social media marketing campaigns as part of the base price. Our focus on digital marketing is also one of the reasons we have been named Denmark’s fastest-selling estate agent.
High-quality service
Although our estate agent’s fee is far lower than at the traditional chains, our service is still of high quality. Our professional agents have many years of experience in the industry and can therefore advise you in the best possible way when you are about to sell or buy a home. In addition, you always have the option of having a local agent assigned to you, so you can be sure of receiving advice based on knowledge of the area where your property transaction takes place.
Fixed low price
At Brikk we offer two different packages when it comes to selling a home. In the first package, at 24.500 kr., we show the home for you. In the second package, at just 12.500 kr., you show your home yourself. Whether or not you choose to do the viewings of your home yourself, you are guaranteed professional advice from an experienced, local agent. By choosing Brikk over a traditional agent, you can therefore be sure of saving a lot of money, and of earning as much as possible when your home is sold. We believe this is the ideal way to sell your home.

Frequently asked questions
Which estate agent is cheapest?
There is a big difference in how much the various estate agency firms charge in fees. The large, traditional agency chains charge around 85.000 kr. to help you with your property transaction. This is partly because the fee is determined on the basis of the price you ultimately buy/sell a home for, and because you are at the same time paying for the chains to expand and do business around the country. At Brikk we think this is a poor way to run a business, and so we have chosen to set a fixed, low fee of 12.500 kr. Of course, we still offer an A-Z service and full transparency in every part of your property transaction.
How can Brikk cost only 12.500 kr.?
At Brikk we are trying to breathe new life into an estate agency industry that has not changed in a very long time. That is why we have cut a number of the larger costs, such as expensive offices and shops, so we can offer our customers the same service they know from the traditional agents, at a far lower price. In addition, we are experts in digital marketing and do everything ourselves. This means we can offer tailored marketing campaigns to home sellers as part of our base price of 12.500 kr.
Which services are included in Brikk’s price?
With Brikk as your estate agent you are guaranteed exactly the same services as at traditional agents - and more. We offer advice from local, experienced agents, tailored marketing campaigns, full transparency and a fixed, low fee, so there are no unforeseen costs.
