Stable returns and crisis resilience

Residential real estate is the classic ‘concrete gold’ – a sector which achieves stable returns and is resilient to crises. However, this depends on location and other factors such as energy efficiency, technical fit-out and layout. Sound market knowledge is essential, particularly when it comes to valuations and transactions.

Residential properties and land are much sought-after in the real estate investment market. They are in particularly high demand among German and international institutional investors and family offices in metropolitan areas - and the trend is growing. In Germany, the strong influx into the major cities and university locations, and an increasing shortage of living space and available building land, have led to considerable growth in values and returns. At the same time, demographic change, changing occupier needs, regional characteristics, ESG requirements and regulation mean that there are constant challenges requiring professional assistance from our experts.

Wide range of services

Whether you are an institutional or private investor or a developer, or if you represent the public sector - as a leading global real estate service provider, we offer a full range of services to support you in achieving your goals.
