What Kind of Objects Do we Finance?

In addition to office and commercial buildings, retail and residential properties, we also finance hotels and logistics and care properties.

Office: A Solid Asset Class

The demand for office properties is growing. Positive macroeconomic conditions, exceptionally good employment figures and a solid underlying mood among companies continue to have a positive impact on the office market.

Falling vacancy rates also reflect the strong demand for office real estate. As this trend is likely to remain, rents will probably continue to rise in most cities.

The excess demand – especially in the core segment – will be difficult to satisfy in the future. Well-equipped office properties in inner-city locations are rare. In this respect, hopes are pinned on innovative projects. The most recent form of mixed-use development areas could be a good stimulus here, as it allows residential and commercial areas to coexist. Conversions of desolate residential or commercial areas could thus create an urban mix from which the office market would also benefit.

We are happy to support you in financing your project. Please do not hesitate to reach out to us.

Residential: Living Space in Which the Future is at Home

Investors are focusing on the German residential market. Due to the positive economic fundamentals and historically low interest rates, the German residential real estate market is the focus of domestic and, above all, foreign investors.

Rents and prices have risen sharply, particularly in the economically attractive areas of population growth. In view of high demand and low completion volumes, the gap between supply and demand continues to widen – albeit to varying degrees from region to region. The big cities in particular, which are benefiting from increasing urbanisation, are facing major challenges: at affordable prices, they have to create maximum living space on little available space. Creativity, courage and openness to new ideas are required if we want to create living space where the future is at home.

We would be happy to support you with your housing project.

Retail: Shopping is Here to Stay

Rising retail revenues and a growing willingness to consume are creating a good mood among retailers and investors.

On the retailers’ side, specialised concepts are increasingly gaining ground in order to be able to withstand the growing importance of online trading. Shopping as an event – seeing, feeling and trying on before buying in a stunning atmosphere – is very much in. To this end, the main shopping streets and pedestrian precincts in the city centres are again increasingly in demand as locations.

We are happy to support you in the realisation of your project.

Hotel Properties – a Commercial Category with Specific Requirements

Good economic underlying conditions, the trend towards “staycations” within Germany and a large number of successful trade fairs in major German cities are leading to a steady rise in the number of overnight stays in the country.

Growing room occupancy and rising room prices as well as growth in earnings per available room currently indicate a stable hotel market. In particular, the TOP 7 locations are preparing themselves to welcome overnight visitors and are intensifying their construction activities.

However, medium-sized cities are also benefiting from the continuing trend towards short trips and city breaks.

The hotel segment is increasingly developing into a fully-fledged and independent asset class, within which apartment hotels and other niches are developing.

Logistics: Innovative Concepts in Demand

Hardly any other real estate segment is currently growing as rapidly as logistics real estate. Every year, around four million square meters of new storage space are created in Germany. This is due to changed concepts in retail trade: e-Commerce and delivery services are booming. This also has an impact on the choice of location. In addition to the large logistics locations in the countryside with good motorway access, there is an increasing demand for inner-city locations in order to meet the demand for “same-day delivery”. But here too, inner-city space is limited. This is why innovative, space-saving and adaptable logistics concepts are needed that fulfil their purpose and fit into the urban planning concept.

Berlin Hyp has many years of expertise in the logistics segment. We will be happy to advise you on your logistics project.

Nursing care real estate: increasing demand

None of us is getting any younger. Quite the opposite in fact. It is no surprise, then, that care properties are increasingly attracting the attention of investors. Due to the demographic development, the baby-boomer generation will reach retirement age in the near future, so one can assume a strongly increasing demand for nursing beds. The occupancy rates in care facilities are already rising.

There is therefore a real need for modern care properties that comply with legal requirements. In comparison with other asset classes, comparatively good returns can still be achieved here.

Our consultants will be happy to assist you with any questions you may have about care properties.
