The verdict in three sentences
In Luxembourg, a website for a commercial real estate advisory costs from EUR 4,000 to over EUR 70,000 excl. VAT depending on whether you use a freelancer, a local agency or a premium agency in Kirchberg or Cloche d'Or (2026 ballpark). Kolonell applies a fixed grid: Starter EUR 2,700, Growth EUR 4,500, Premium EUR 8,200 excl. VAT, Premium being the multilingual tier, with languages set in the quote. The real gap lies less in the build than in hidden costs: content, photography, translations, compliance review and integrations.
How much does a commercial real estate advisory website cost in Luxembourg?
Your clients are corporate real estate directors at banks and funds, office landlords, institutional investors and companies looking for space in Gasperich, Kirchberg or Belval. They judge an advisory on market knowledge, listing quality, research notes and team seniority. The site must prove all of that, without ever showing a transaction that is not public.
| Option | Build range (EUR excl. VAT) | Usual timeline | What you usually get |
|---|---|---|---|
| Local freelancer | 4,000 to 10,000 | 4 to 8 weeks | Theme-based site, few practice pages, one or two languages |
| Local agency | 12,000 to 30,000 | 8 to 14 weeks | Custom design, CMS, simple listings module |
| Premium local agency | 30,000 to 70,000 and up | 12 to 24 weeks | Brand strategy, user research, integrations, extended multilingual |
| Kolonell Starter | 2,700 | 3 to 4 weeks | Professional site, native copywriting, 3 months of support |
| Kolonell Growth | 4,500 | 3 to 4 weeks | More practice pages, blog or research notes, analytics |
| Kolonell Premium | 8,200 | 4 to 6 weeks | Multilingual tier, languages set in the quote, advanced design |
Local ranges: 2026 ballpark based on typical local agency quotes and public agency rate pages. Every Kolonell tier includes a project manager reachable in your time zone, native English or French copywriting, and 3 months of support. Secure client areas, investor portals, integrations and custom apps are on quote. Tier details in the international offer.
What a commercial real estate advisory website must prove
Pages to plan for if you want occupiers and investors to take you seriously:
- Services: office leasing and search, investment, valuation, project management, tenant advisory;
- Listings: only real properties under mandate, filterable by district, floor area and availability;
- Research: quarterly market notes, figures sourced from public data;
- Team: partners and consultants, specialisms, languages spoken;
- Transactions: only those already announced publicly and approved by the client;
- Secure contact and GDPR notices.
A real example: Kolonell built the website of Orven Properties (orvenproperties.com), a real estate company in Dubai. That kind of project shows a property catalogue and a team presentation can be delivered by a remote studio. On the regulatory side, acting as a real estate agent in Luxembourg requires a business permit (autorisation d'établissement), and processing contact data falls under the GDPR, supervised by the CNPD. This is not legal advice.
Hidden costs and the total three-year cost
The build price is only part of the bill. In Luxembourg the language question weighs more than elsewhere: the market runs in French, English and German, sometimes Luxembourgish for local landlords.
| Item | Local freelancer | Local agency | Kolonell Growth |
|---|---|---|---|
| Build (EUR excl. VAT) | 7,000 | 20,000 | 4,500 |
| Photography of properties and team (third party) | 2,500 | 2,500 | 2,500 |
| Professional translation of one extra language (third party) | 3,000 | 3,000 | 3,000 |
| Legal and GDPR review (third party) | 1,500 | 1,500 | 1,500 |
| Maintenance over 33 months | EUR 200 a month, market assumption: 6,600 | EUR 400 a month, market assumption: 13,200 | On quote, not included in this total |
| Three-year total | 20,600 | 40,200 | 11,500 excluding maintenance |
This table assumes 3 months of warranty or support included everywhere, then 33 months of maintenance. Third-party costs are identical so the scope is like for like. For the Kolonell site, maintenance after the 3 included months is quoted separately and must be added to the total.

When a local agency is still the better choice
To be fair: a Luxembourg agency is preferable if you need weekly in-person workshops with your management committee, a heavy integration with a property CRM or a lease management tool already in place, native German or Luxembourgish copywriting delivered by the agency itself, or a full brand campaign beyond the website. In those cases the price gap is justified.
Questions to ask any provider:
- Who writes the service pages, and in which native languages?
- How are listings updated, and by whom?
- Can the listings module keep off-market properties out of search indexes?
- What does maintenance cost after the included period?
- Who owns the domain name, the code and the accounts?
Mini case study
Illustrative example: Moselle Workplace Advisory, a fictional nine-consultant firm in Cloche d'Or. Quote received from a local agency: EUR 24,000 excl. VAT. Kolonell Premium option: EUR 8,200 excl. VAT, the multilingual tier with the languages chosen in the quote, plus EUR 4,500 of translations handled by a legal and real estate translator. Total: EUR 12,700 excl. VAT. Build-cost gap: 24,000 minus 12,700 equals EUR 11,300 excl. VAT, enough to fund several years of research notes or an architectural photographer.
FAQ
How much does a commercial real estate advisory website cost in Luxembourg? Between EUR 4,000 and over EUR 70,000 excl. VAT locally, depending on the provider (2026 ballpark). At Kolonell the grid is fixed: EUR 2,700, 4,500 or 8,200 excl. VAT.
How long until we are live? 3 to 4 weeks for the Starter and Growth tiers at Kolonell, 4 to 6 weeks for Premium. A local agency more often quotes 8 to 24 weeks.
Are translations included? Premium is the multilingual tier, with languages set in the quote. Specialist translations handled by a third party are budgeted separately, often EUR 2,000 to 4,000 per language for a site of this size.
Can we show our past transactions? Only those publicly announced and with the parties' written consent. A presentation by asset type and floor area, without names, is often enough to reassure an occupier.
What happens after the 3 included months of support? Maintenance is quoted separately, based on the number of listings and updates. In the local market, the usual assumption sits between EUR 150 and 600 a month.
