Building Solutions.
Our expertise
Our clients create value. Their properties shape cityscapes all over Germany. Our role is to help them realise their vision by successfully concluding the necessary contracts. We offer high-quality advice, innovative legal solutions and collaboration on a partnership basis.
We support project developers, institutional investors, asset managers and family offices. We share with them an entrepreneurial mindset and a deep understanding of the real estate industry. We do not get lost in legal concerns, but work out strategic options: solutions-oriented, pragmatic and with an eye for the essential.
Long-term partnerships are important to us and we have been working with most of our clients for years. We accompany them throughout the entire life cycle of a property. From the acquisition of the plot to the development and management stage all the way to the sale. We work from the buyer’s and the seller’s perspective, for all asset classes.
In 2021, we managed projects worth well over half a billion euros in this way.
