      In times of low interest rates, sharply rising property values and a high inflow of funds from investors, many property companies have focused on increasing sales and market share. As a result, companies have grown rapidly both organically and inorganically. Inefficiencies, a lack of digitalisation and a lack of expertise were compensated for by value growth.

      The sudden and serious changes in the market with constantly increasing risks due to regulation, a shortage of skilled labour and supply bottlenecks are now increasingly drawing attention to the performance and resilience of companies.
