Real Estate - Building a sustainable future

CFO Services comprise all consulting and insurance services related to the CFO function.

As efficient processes, automation and in-depth expertise are of great importance here, we offer operational support in optimising and improving your finance function in order to make your company more efficient and productive.

No two property transactions are the same; extensive market knowledge and professional expertise in the assessment and evaluation of key financial figures, planning calculations and ESG compliance as well as tax and legal advice* are always required to make a property deal a success. As KPMG, we provide you with comprehensive support to successfully implement your investment strategy. Particularly during challenging market conditions, management teams face the challenge of making investment decisions quickly yet with confidence. Structured property management provides clarity on values, risks, liquidity implications and available options.

80 per cent of property managers attach great importance to a digital strategy, while only 50 per cent already have a digital strategy. Global investment trends, ESG and data networking with properties and users now make a digital strategy a must-have.  Digital solutions are transforming the way property portfolios are managed. Data rooms, ESG data models, property management systems, automated reporting and AI-powered analytics are creating new levels of transparency. We help you align data quality, your system landscape and governance so that management decisions can be made more quickly and with greater confidence.

Digital property management can help property management firms standardise processes, fulfil reporting obligations more efficiently and identify operational challenges at an early stage. It is crucial that systems, data and responsibilities are aligned.

Climate protection and climate change dominate the regulatory agenda. The property industry plays a key role in this. Companies are now called upon to recognise this at an early stage and actively position themselves. This is precisely when sustainability becomes an opportunity and thus the foundation for economic success. The BMWSB focuses on the entire life cycle of buildings, from construction products and standardisation to digitalisation and research. For businesses, this presents a management challenge: ESG data must be available, verifiable and relevant to decision-making.

For property managers and owners, this presents a twofold challenge. They must manage the operation of existing properties efficiently whilst simultaneously planning investments in decarbonisation, energy efficiency and data quality. We support them in integrating ESG requirements into property management and creating a robust basis for decision-making.

Our Real Estate Restructuring team supports project development companies and existing property owners of all usage classes in difficult economic situations. In addition to securing liquidity, we provide support in developing the strategic direction, particularly in connection with ESG investments. We also support decision-making on the basis of (scenario) planning calculations. We communicate possible courses of action to stakeholders.

Corporate success is no coincidence. Strategic skill and operational strength form the basis. We offer you value-oriented top management consulting and well-founded implementation concepts for your property company or your (corporate) real estate management division.

The construction industry has experienced a real boom in recent years. Our experts advise you with future-orientated solutions to positively shape the upcoming challenges. We support sustainable construction projects from project conception and feasibility through to completion. Our consulting services range from BIM (Building Innovation Modelling) and sustainable construction to digitalisation in construction.
