Overview

This course connects EU AI Act & AI Compliance with the everyday processes of Real Estate. Participants work on realistic scenarios and leave with prompts, workflows and checklists they can use straight away.

The EU AI Act is the first comprehensive legal framework for artificial intelligence, and it applies not only to providers but also to organisations that use AI systems in their daily work. In this compact course you will learn how the regulation is structured: prohibited practices, high-risk systems, transparency obligations and general-purpose AI models. You will find out which role your organisation plays as a deployer, which obligations follow and how to record and classify the AI applications you use in a structured way.

The practical part turns the requirements into manageable steps. You clarify what the AI literacy obligation under Article 4 means in concrete terms, how to organise training in a verifiable way and what an internal AI policy should cover. You also examine the interfaces with the GDPR, such as legal bases, data protection impact assessments and automated decision-making. You leave with an AI inventory template, a draft policy and a clear compliance roadmap for your area of work.

Much of the work in real estate revolves around documents: property listings, leases, service charge statements, minutes of owners' meetings, valuation reports and an endless stream of enquiries from prospects and tenants. Generative AI takes over the routine – drafting listings from key facts, summarising declarations of division and valuation reports, answering standard questions up front and structuring repair requests. AI agents connect the inbox, property database and scheduling into end-to-end workflows. For agents, property managers and asset managers this frees up time for viewings, negotiations and owner relations. What matters is handling tenant and owner data responsibly and having an expert check every legally relevant statement before it goes out.

The course is delivered live – either online in a virtual classroom or on-site in our training rooms in Munich, Salzburg, Berlin, Augsburg, Hanover, Bremen, Stuttgart and Kaiserslautern. We can also run it exclusively for your team.

Practical scenarios from your field

Listings from key facts

Floor plans, location details and specification lists become compelling property descriptions in several tones and languages, which the team then reviews and completes with mandatory details such as energy performance data.

Pre-qualifying enquiries

An AI assistant triages incoming enquiries, answers standard questions about the property and documents, asks for missing details such as household size or financing status and proposes suitable viewing slots.

Minutes of owners' meetings

Notes or transcripts are turned into structured minutes with resolution wording, voting results and an action list, which the property manager checks before circulating and adding to the record of resolutions.

Summarising contract documents

Leases, declarations of division and valuation reports are condensed into key points such as terms, indexation clauses, exclusive use rights and maintenance obligations, speeding up due diligence and property handovers.

Structuring repair requests

Free-text tenant reports are classified by trade, urgency and property, enriched with follow-up questions and turned into draft work orders for contractors – including an acknowledgement to the tenant.

Market and owner reports

AI helps draft quarterly reports for owners and investors, summarising vacancies, letting activity and maintenance work from existing data and adding clear commentary on variances.

Prerequisites

No legal background is required. A basic knowledge of the GDPR and an overview of the AI applications used or planned in your area are helpful. Hands-on experience in property marketing, management or asset management; no programming skills required.

Technical requirements

All you need is a laptop with an up-to-date browser and an office suite for working with templates. No special AI licences are necessary.

Data protection & compliance

Tenant, owner and prospect data falls under the GDPR, especially tenant self-disclosures and credit documents, and belongs only in approved AI environments. Legally relevant content such as contract clauses, mandatory listing details or resolution wording must be reviewed by a qualified person.

Dates & locations

For every location we suggest a date roughly four weeks ahead. Your preferred date is always possible.

Frequently asked questions

Does the EU AI Act apply to companies that only use AI tools?

Yes. Anyone using AI systems under their own authority in a professional context is a deployer. All deployers must, in particular, ensure that their staff have sufficient AI literacy. Where high-risk systems are used, for example in recruitment, further obligations apply, such as human oversight, logging and informing the people affected.

Does this course satisfy the training obligation under Article 4?

The course covers core AI literacy content and you receive a certificate of attendance that you can add to your documentation. However, Article 4 requires measures tailored to role, prior knowledge and context of use. That is why you also learn how to set up and maintain your own AI literacy concept for your organisation.

Does the course replace legal advice?

No. The training provides practical knowledge for specialists and managers so they can interpret requirements, ask precise questions and implement first measures. For binding assessments of individual systems, especially in high-risk areas, you should involve your legal department, your data protection officer or external specialist lawyers.

Can I enter tenant data into an AI assistant?

Only in an environment approved by your organisation, backed by a data processing agreement and clear rules. In the course we show how to pseudonymise data, which information never belongs in public tools and how to work with placeholders without losing the benefits of AI.

Will AI replace agents and property managers?

No. AI handles drafting, triage and summaries. Viewings, negotiations, owners' meetings and legal responsibility stay with you. The gain lies in time freed up for client conversations and in faster, more consistent day-to-day processes. Error rates in routine correspondence also tend to fall.

How much does “EU AI Act & AI Compliance for Real Estate Professionals” cost?

The course costs a flat €949 plus VAT per participant – whether online or on-site. This includes 6 hours of live training with a trainer, course materials, a lab environment and a certificate of attendance.

Can I suggest my own date?

Yes. For every location we suggest a date roughly four weeks ahead. In the request form you can always describe your preferred date or period in free text – we check availability and get back to you within one working day.

Is the course online or on-site?

Both are possible: live online in a virtual classroom or on-site in Munich, Salzburg, Berlin, Augsburg, Hanover, Bremen, Stuttgart and Kaiserslautern. We can also run the course exclusively for your team.

Can the course be tailored to our team?

Yes. Tailor-made courses cost approx. €4,500 more, depending on the topic and by arrangement. We agree content, examples and exercises with you in advance.
