Strategic use, development and marketing of commercial real estate.
We are DeFORIS Unternehmensberatung
We advise small and medium-sized enterprises on the strategic use of their real estate – from the valuation of existing commercial properties to the development and marketing of unused assets.
In doing so, we always consider locations, usage concepts, value potentials and economic framework conditions in context. No isolated expert reports, but strategic solutions that make your real estate a productive part of your corporate development.
Our property consultancy. What we specifically do for you.
Our real estate consultancy covers all strategic questions that companies have when dealing with their property – from valuation in the context of business succession and the development of unused buildings to the marketing of locations that are no longer required. We analyse potentials, develop utilisation concepts and support you with implementation.
“The successor was sitting in the company the whole time.” We highlight opportunities that were previously invisible. From preparation to handover. The solution: A succession that is fair for all parties.
restructuring
Analyse structures. Clean up processes. Make key figures transparent. The downside of waiting: the crisis arrives faster than the solution. The upside of taking action: stability returns. Before it is too late.
Strategic realignment
Markets are changing. Your strategy needs to keep pace. The problem: many react too late. Because: clarity takes time. We define goals. Sharpen positioning. Develop strategies that work operationally.
Our property consultancy in four clear steps
Get an overview
We obtain a complete overview of your property situation. Locations, usage, condition, legal framework and economic potential. The goal is a realistic assessment that does not just count square metres, but highlights strategic development opportunities.
Determine strategic options
Based on the analysis, we will develop strategic options: optimising owner-occupation, assessing third-party letting, developing space or preparing for sale. Each option will be examined for economic viability, feasibility and strategic alignment with your corporate goals.
Oversee implementation
We implement the chosen strategy together with you, whether that involves negotiations with buyers or tenants, the development of utilisation concepts, or the coordination of construction measures. We remain by your side until your properties are optimally integrated into your corporate strategy.
Long-term perspectives
Following implementation, we develop a long-term perspective: How will your locations evolve? What adjustments will be necessary in five years? What new opportunities will arise? Real estate strategy does not end with a completed transaction, but with a flexible plan for the future.
Concrete results for Your company
Real estate strategy means not just valuation, but value creation. Following our advice, our clients use their property more productively. From unused space to profitable lettings, from outdated locations to modern working environments, from unclear values to transparent asset positions as part of corporate succession.
Value potential identified
Realistic valuation of commercial properties, also in the context of corporate succession – transparent, well-founded, negotiation-proof.
Areas put to productive use
Unused or underutilised spaces are developed and marketed – from vacancies to rental income or strategic sale.
future-proof locations
Commercial properties are being adapted to meet changing demands – modern working environments instead of outdated structures.
Individual and different.
Frequently asked questions and answers
Property consultancy sometimes raises many questions. From the initial valuation to concrete implementation. Here you will find answers to the most important topics concerning strategic property use, development and marketing.
If you need to value commercial property as part of succession planning, have unused spaces that are generating costs, or if locations no longer fit your company's development. Strategic advice is also useful for planned expansions or sales.
We do not just prepare valuations, we develop strategic options. A surveyor tells you what your property is worth – we show you what you can do with it. From valuation to implementation, from analysis to marketing.
That depends on the project. An appraisal in the context of succession can be completed in 4 to 8 weeks, whereas comprehensive development and marketing takes 6 to 12 months. We remain by your side until your property strategy has been implemented.
Yes, if needed we involve our network – estate agents for marketing, surveyors for technical details, solicitors for contract drafting. We coordinate all parties involved and retain strategic control so that you have a single point of contact.
