Everything from a single source

Benefit from our expertise

Services

We support our strategic partners in the implementation of real estate investments. In doing so, we adopt a holistic approach and possess the expertise required to advise you throughout the entire real estate cycle. Our core business is the formulation of tailored real estate investment strategies for professional and institutional investors; from classic individual investments and club deals to structured solutions and the associated asset management.

Asset management

We realise the investor’s targets on the basis of budget plans prepared in advance. This includes implementing modernisation and development measures, space and tenant restructuring, and even the repositioning of real estate. We also offer to optimise existing contracts.

Finance brokerage

Thanks to our long-standing business relationships, we have a wide range of financial institutions available to us for financing during the project development phase. These provide us with excellent access through which to arrange project and/or acquisition financing.

Subsidy management

We possess extensive knowledge in dealing with subsidies thanks to our cross-regional activities. This is true both in the field of subsidised housing construction and in energy subsidy programmes, such as KfW 40. The programmes for subsidised housing construction sometimes differ significantly from one federal state to the next. Furthermore, these programmes are subject to continuous development. We shall be happy to advise you on the subsidy opportunities available from the respective federal state, coordinate with the development banks, prepare the subsidy applications and implement the key figures in your cash flow model.

Fund management

Working in close collaboration with the asset management division and the capital management company, we optimise all cash flow-relevant matters pertaining to the properties entrusted to us. For subsidised properties, we calculate the most attractive combinations of rent reductions, subsidies and subsidised loans within the framework of scenario analyses. We also realise comprehensive reporting for the capital management company and proprietors.

Concept design

We provide advice to investors when selecting the appropriate investment platform – be it as a classic club deal or indirect capital investment solution – and formulate tailored concepts.

The SMARTments family

Housing is our profession; for the short or long-term. Our SMARTments business brand of serviced apartments has been established on the market for a long time now, and we operate more than 1,000 fully furnished apartments in Germany and Austria. We offer around 3,600 apartments with the SMARTments student brand to young people studying or in training at popular university locations. Our SMARTments living micro-apartment line comprises over 200 apartments and will be complemented in the future by age-appropriate living.

GC service

Realising a construction project requires the extensive deployment of a wide range of resources, which must be coordinated with each other. Working as a general contractor, we offer to take care of all planning, calculation, project management and execution services from a single source. GBI has in-house architects and civil engineers with decades of experience at various locations.

Investment management

Our service spectrum includes the identification of acquisition opportunities, the execution of complete due diligence and the acquisition/disposal of real estate. In addition to enjoying preferential access to GBI Holding AG project developments, we also review properties from external providers. Long-term partnerships with relevant market participants ensure a full deal pipeline as well as off-market deals.

Property marketing / brokerage

We can also bring our comprehensive expertise to bear for third parties. For example, we advise project developers on structuring their sales processes and stand available as transaction managers – from the point at which an investor
approach takes place right through to contractual signing. We can also act as consultants for existing projects by optimising the utilisation concept and identifying potential for value enhancement. Furthermore, we are also able to provide advice on all subsidy programmes at federal and state level, thanks to our comprehensive existing expertise gained within the framework of our own projects.

Renting

We rent out your property in subsidised housing as a first-time rental. Rents are set according to the respective subsidy guidelines and the tenants’ eligibility for subsidies is assessed. We also find replacement tenants for existing buildings. When it comes to apartment buildings – such as those in our SMARTments living brand range – we take care of initial and subsequent rentals.
