willhaben alerts by email, one mail per check
Each check we run on your willhaben search sends a single email containing every ad that appeared since the last one.

Build the Austrian search you would buy from
On willhaben the same site covers Immobilien, Auto & Motor and the Marktplatz full of furniture, tools, bikes and baby gear, so the filters are what make a page usable. Choose the Kategorie, limit it to a Bundesland and the Bezirk you can reach, give Preis von–bis a real ceiling in euro, set the Zustand, and on flats and cars say whether you want private sellers or dealers. Sort by „Neueste zuerst“ before you copy anything.

Telegram Email App push
Register the link against your inbox
Add that results page to MXSender and point it at the address you keep open during the working day. Telegram and the Android app are there as alternatives; this page is about the inbox. One address is covered on the free plan and on Starter, three on Pro, which is enough for a partner or a second mailbox to read along.

Read the digest and file it
Each time we look at the page, anything new goes into one message — every match listed with its photo, its asking price and a link to the ad on willhaben. A check that finds nothing sends nothing. The rhythm follows the plan: one search every 30 minutes for free, five searches every 10 minutes on Starter, twenty searches and the quickest checks on Pro.

Austria from a desk, without another chat app
Plenty of people buying a flat in Wien or a car in Linz are doing it between meetings, from a laptop, with a mail client already open. For them another chat app is a cost, not a convenience — one more place to look, one more thing buzzing.
Email removes that. There is nothing to install and nothing to join: the alerts arrive where your day already happens, and you deal with them the way you deal with everything else there.
Everything one check found, in a single message
Bundling is the point. If six ads appear between two checks you get six entries in one mail rather than six interruptions, and you can scan them top to bottom in under a minute.
Speed is not lost in the bundling, because the mail goes out at the end of the check that found the ads. Calling about a Besichtigungstermin that morning rather than the next day is usually the whole difference between seeing the flat and reading that it is gone.
A Gmail label or an Outlook folder per Bezirk
Because it is all mail, your own tools apply. A filter moves one search into its own folder, so the Graz hunt and the Salzburg hunt never mix, and you can look at either when it suits you rather than when it arrives.
People running two Bundesländer at once tend to end up with two folders and a quick glance at which one is busier. That is a reasonable way to decide where to concentrate.
Your own record of what a district was asking
The mails stay. After a few weeks the folder is a private archive of a market: what came up in a Bezirk, what it was asking in euro, how long it sat there, and whether it came back relisted at a different figure.
Car buyers get the same benefit from a different angle. Weeks of mails showing Kilometerstand and Erstzulassung against asking prices turn a nervous first phone call into an informed one.
Addresses per plan, and the unsubscribe line
One search checked every 30 minutes costs nothing and covers one address. Starter adds four more searches and a 10-minute rhythm, Pro raises it to twenty searches, the quickest checks and up to three recipient addresses. No channel is behind a paywall; what you pay for is how much you watch and how often.
willhaben runs its own saved search, the Suchagent, which also sends mail. Next to it, the thing you choose with us is the destination and the frequency — and every message we send carries an unsubscribe link, so stopping one search takes a single click.
❓Frequently asked questions
Is it really one mail per check, not one per listing?
One per check. Every new ad that check found is listed inside the same message, each with a photo, a price and a link.
How many addresses can receive alerts?
One on the free plan and on Starter, three on Pro. Several searches can share the same address.
What if the mail lands in spam?
Move it back once and add the sender to your contacts. A filter on that address will then sort every later alert into the folder you chose.
Do I get the whole existing results page when I start?
No. What is already listed counts as known, and the first mail covers the first genuinely new ad.
Can I pause a search while I am away?
Yes. Pause it and start it again afterwards; the link and the settings stay as they were.
Does this work for Marktplatz items as well as property?
Any willhaben results page works the same way, so a search for a specific tool available for Abholung behaves exactly like a flat search, just with different filters behind it.
