The only thing you can do really is to work only with reputable agencies with a proven track record. Unfortunately there are a lot of dodgy agencies out there and unless you are a fan of youtube you won't necessarily always see the negative side of some.

Where in Berlin was the first apartment and where was the second one you were offered? If you want to send me some more details I'll give you my unbiased opinion.

I do work for an agency but am not in sales and decided long ago to only use this forum on a personal basis to gather information, to discuss markets with people who invested in them and possibly provide some help for concerned investors in return so I won't be even telling you which agency I work for let alone trying to convince you to buy through us.
