Besichtigungstermin für eine Mietwohnung bestätigen: Goethe B1 Schreiben Example

Renting an apartment is one of the first real-life hurdles many people face in a German-speaking country, and it shows up constantly in the B1 Schreiben exam for exactly that reason. Confirming a viewing appointment sounds simple, but examiners are checking whether you can handle the small formal details: replying appropriately to a landlord, confirming a date, asking a follow-up question, and closing the email politely.
This is a theme that comes back again and again across different exam versions, just with the names and details swapped. Once you’ve internalized the structure and the right phrases for this kind of reply, you can reuse that pattern with confidence, no matter how the specific scenario is worded on exam day.
Below you’ll find a realistic exam task together with a complete model answer, so you can see exactly what a strong, well-structured response looks like in practice.
Here is the exam task, followed by a model answer you can study and adapt.
