Structure and create investment strategies

In cooperation with our investor client, we structure the appropriate ownership models, such as a JV structure or a fund, on a case-by-case basis. Among other services we also help our clients to create new investment strategies and to strategically grow and adjust their portfolios.

Raise capital and finance

In the last five years, we have organized transactions amounting to more €1 billion. When required we assist our clients in raising the necessary capital and in arranging financing, especially with local finance sources.

DD processes and documentation

We make approximately 10–15 real estate transactions annually in which we also provide support to our investor customers in the DD process and its documentation. We often provide our clients with a commercial DD survey and reports. During the DD process we also act as an advisor between our investor client and third parties, such as technical DD agents.

Purchase and sale of real estate

Our annual transaction volume is over €200 million. We advise our customers on both purchase and sales transactions. We employ our thorough understanding of potential transaction targets when we feel that they closely fit our clients’ investment strategy and criteria.

Analysis

In accordance with the client’s investment strategy and criteria we perform site-specific pricing, risk analysis and return calculations for potential investment targets. If required, we also prepare business plans for properties together with the investor and our asset managers.

We frequently carry out background work on potential investment targets before we approach the client so that we can propose the properties that best meet their investment strategy. By being proactive we are able to guarantee efficient services for our customers.
