The recovery of the real estate market is gaining momentum. Thanks to falling interest rates, the transaction volume rose to 11.8 billion euros in the fourth quarter of 2024 - the best quarterly result in the last two years. Despite this positive development, the total annual volume of around 35 billion euros remains well below the long-term average of 78 billion euros. While the market is gradually gaining stability, structural challenges remain. Investors are increasingly focusing on future demand for space, which is developing differently depending on the asset class. What is important now and how should your company position itself? Read our experts' analysis in the Real Estate Bulletin.
The topics at a glance:
- Residential real estate, logistics and data centers: Institutional investors continue to show great interest. A persistent shortage of space ensures stable rental and value trends.
- Office properties under pressure: Many properties are facing economic challenges. Conversions are an option, but not always economically viable. Prime properties are benefiting from a falling rate of new construction.
- Focus on financing: The debt gap for German real estate is estimated at 77 billion euros by 2028. Alternative financing models are gaining in importance, but price expectations continue to diverge.
- Technology as a driver: Digitalization and automation are helping to leverage efficiency potential. However, technological innovations alone are not a solution to the structural challenges of the market.
