Questions & Answers

Why Germany?

Despite threats of technical recession, caused by inflationary pressure and sinking buying mood, Germany - a country with a population of over 84 million people and a GDP of $4,5 trillion (Nr. 3 economy in the World after China and USA and Nr. 3 exporting country after China and USA) remains European economy Nr. 1. Over 1.500 German companies are still World leaders in every possible industrial niche. By beginning of 2023 total private wealth in Germany rose to €7,4 trillion, keeping this nation one of the strongest purchasing powers on this planet. Want to know more?

Why Food Retail?

No matter what kind of crisis is going to come, people will have to eat, drink and fulfil their everyday needs. Biggest German food retailers continue showing fantastic stability in turbulent nowadays. Did you know, that the total amount of spendings on food & drinks in Germany in 2022 exceeded €220 billion? Only €5,6 billion of that amount were spent online. Thanks to conservative German customers, who still prefer buying food "offline", stationary stores in great locations of this country remain Nr. 1 tool of saving capitals for conservative investors.

Want to know more? Call or message us: +49 173 67 33 998.

What (not) to invest in?

For various reasons we wouldn't recommend investing in hotels, car dealerships, retirement homes, office buildings or logistics warehouses in Germany today. A perfectly located, brand new or completely refurbished free hold Food Supermarket - stand-alone, double asset with a shared parking space or a part of a shopping centre, rented on a long-term basis by one the famous German retailer chains, remains a perfect investment for a conservative international Ultra-High-Net-Worth individual in search of a top-class Core Real Estate asset in Germany. Want to know more? Call or message us: +49 173 67 33 998.

Where (not) to invest?

Germany is a strongly decentralized country, and though its "Big 7" cities - Berlin, Hamburg, Munich, Cologne, Frankfurt, Stuttgart, Düsseldorf - might look very attractive as a place of an abstract retail asset to invest in, in reality each micro-location here suffers from an extremely strong competition. A conservative investor should pay serious attention to so-called B, C or even D-type towns of Germany, where a newly built Food Supermarket, rented by one of top retailers on a long-term basis often plays a strategic, almost a monopolistic role. Want to know more? Call or message us: +49 173 67 33 998.

How to finance?

After a long period of historically lowest interest rates, commercial loans have become so expensive, that it makes no sense to use bank financing anymore. New reality: investors in Commercial Real Estate should bring 100% own capital. Great advantage for international buyers with no Tax Residence in Germany: they can legally call it a Shareholder Loan, with loan interest, free of local Income Tax. Such a scheme is especially attractive for those, who enjoy owning citizenship of the countries, which don't tax incomes from foreign assets. Want to know more? Call or message us: +49 173 67 33 998.

How to purchase assets?

Legal system of Germany provides the safest purchase procedure in the World both for a Buyer and for a Seller of Commercial Real Estate. Purchase Contracts closed in this country should be obligatory notarized. Various types of Due Diligence, such as legal, technical, financial and tax, as well as Location Analysis should still never be ignored, even in case of purchasing a brand new Commercial Real Estate asset. Using a notary escrow account, specially opened for a particular deal in investor's home bank beforehand, should bring extra security. Want to know more? Call or message us: +49 173 67 33 998.
