Pros and cons
Pros
- A cost picture that leads on price: APRC of 3.78% and an initial rate of 3.66%.
- No arrangement charge, with a product fee of €0.
- A purpose list of purchase, remortgage and buy to let, so purchase, remortgage and buy-to-let sit in one place.
- Support on email and phone, so a phone line is there as well as email.
Cons
- The fixed period of 5 years is short, ranking 157 of 273 brands on that measure.
- A single market, DE, so a borrower buying outside it starts with fewer options.
- Prestalo lists a lower initial rate of 2.36%, so rate-first readers may look there first.
Who it suits
- German buyers using the broker for a purchase or remortgage, both inside purchase, remortgage and buy to let.
- Owners adding buy-to-let property, which purchase, remortgage and buy to let also covers.
- Borrowers who want a phone line as well as email, since support runs on email and phone.
Who should look elsewhere
- Prestalo readers: its initial rate of 2.36% is lower than the 3.66% here.
- Anyone wanting a longer rate lock than 5 years.
- Borrowers shopping outside DE, since the broker's coverage is a single market.

Frequently asked questions
What does a CE-Baufinanz mortgage cost?+
The listed APRC is 3.78% and the initial rate is 3.66%, held for 5 years. The product fee is €0, so there is no arrangement charge to add to the first payment. Support on email and phone can walk through what the rate covers.
How long is the rate fixed?+
The rate is fixed for 5 years, and on the site ranking CE-Baufinanz sits at 157 of 273 brands for fixed period. That is short, so compare the 3.78% with brokers offering a longer lock before you commit.
Who regulates CE-Baufinanz?+
The legal entity behind the brand is CE-Baufinanz GmbH, listed as a property loan broker with the Industrie- und Handelskammer Hamburg, with supervision from the Hamburg authority for consumer protection, trade and environment. The firm was founded in 2014 and works from DE.
What can I use CE-Baufinanz for?+
The stated purposes are purchase, remortgage and buy to let, which covers a home purchase, a remortgage and buy-to-let lending. The firm works from DE, so the range is aimed at a single market. Compare it with other property brokers and direct lenders rather than with current account or savings providers.
How do I contact CE-Baufinanz?+
Support runs on email and phone: email and phone, with no chat route listed. Email suits document questions, while the phone line suits anything urgent before completion. The legal entity behind the brand is CE-Baufinanz GmbH, so use that name in any written complaint.
How does CE-Baufinanz compare on rates?+
Prestalo lists an initial rate of 2.36%, below the 3.66% here, and Creditilia ES lists 4%. Sofkredit's range of 8% to 14% sits above both, so the headline rate alone is not the deciding factor: check the APRC, the fee and the fixed period together.
Is CE-Baufinanz a bank or a broker?+
The register entry describes a property loan intermediary under CE-Baufinanz GmbH, so the terms you are quoted come through the broker and the lender named in the offer. The product fee of €0 is the broker's own charge. Support runs on email and phone if you want that routing explained before you apply.
