Scope of services
Structured to closing.
Real estate transactions are characterised by unevenly distributed information: the seller knows the property, the buyer has to work it out. At the same time, price, risk allocation and contract terms are fixed for many years within a few weeks.
We lead the process, coordinate law firms, banks and appraisers and ensure that every decision is based on verified figures – not on assumptions.
Buy-side advisory
Search profile, property selection, plausibility check of the purchase price, bidding strategy and negotiation.
Sell-side advisory
Sale preparation, complete data room, approach to selected investors – on request in a structured bidding process.
Transaction structuring
Asset deal or share deal, purchase price mechanisms (locked box or closing accounts), warranty catalogue and lease structures.
Negotiation & closing
Negotiating purchase and lease agreements, coordinating contract drafting, supporting the handover.
Your advantage
What buyers and sellers gain.
For buyers
Before an offer is made, the purchase price is checked for plausibility using income value, comparables and lease analysis. Before signing, due diligence reveals maintenance backlog and risks with their costs – as a basis for a price reduction, warranties or withdrawal.
For sellers
A structured process replaces one-to-one negotiation: a complete data room before going to market, targeted approach to selected investors, offers in an indicative and a final round. This creates competition and prevents renegotiation after due diligence.
Due diligence
Four reviews, one contact.
The entire due diligence is managed and summarised so that you can decide: with assessed risks and their costs.
