We make real estate efficient

RITTERWALD knows the real estate sector better than any other consulting firm in Germany.

Whether you’re a publicly traded company or a municipal housing provider, a cooperative or a family office, as a RITTERWALD client you’ll profit from our extensive and in-depth industry insight which comes from our continuously growing portfolio of successfully delivered projects.

We know the players at all the interfaces between property companies and the related service industries – and we’re just as familiar with high-performing incumbents from the service sector as we are with innovative start-ups. What this means for our clients is that we can optimize costs, processes and structures along the entire value chain – everywhere from energy services to submetering and facility management.

We keep a close eye on how societal trends are changing what people want in respect of real estate, and how they live and work in it. When it comes to dealing with the big topics of the future, such as mobility, homecare and smart buildings, our analyses will give you the basis you need to put your business on the right foundations long term.
