Act reliably
Our Annual Report
Vonovia is one of Europe’s leading real estate companies and the largest residential real estate company in the German market. We offer the security of a high-performing company. We want to continue to grow and therefore purchase suitable portfolios to retain under our long-term ownership.
Vonovia pursues acquisitions as and when opportunities present themselves in light of the current opportunities for returns and financing.
Professional and individual transactions. Our “Acquisition” department has efficient structures in place for handling purchases of residential portfolios in a straightforward, binding, quick, discreet and reputable way. This professionalism is reflected in an accelerated process and fast, reliable financial management. This brings benefits for sellers, agents and intermediaries and provides them with security.
Whether a private individual, company, community of heirs, foundation, association, municipal authority or other entities under public law: We take owners’ different interests and requirements into account and cater to individual needs. We are also happy to receive offers from agents and intermediaries.
Fast and seamless integration. Thanks to our many years of experience in purchasing portfolios of all sizes and our presence across Germany, we are able to quickly and seamlessly integrate portfolios acquired in any region into our company and manage them in a customer-friendly way using the infrastructure we have in place for this purpose.
Five key factors that we offer in the sale of real estate
The acquisition of attractive residential portfolios and their integration are an essential part of our corporate strategy. Vonovia’s entire company history is characterized by steady growth through successful integrations. Our corporate structure provides an ideal platform for the integration of additional portfolios across Germany and their long-term management. Our efficient management and housing industry expertise make each new integration a model for success.
Our strong equity situation and our excellent financing options on the capital market provide us with the financial means to carry out and finance even large purchases and acquisitions of major residential real estate companies. Such purchases and acquisitions are financed through a mix of equity and borrowed capital. In addition to its own broad capital base, there are a number of other options available to Vonovia, such as financing through corporate bonds or even secured real estate financing from international and German banks.
This means you can rely on us throughout the entire sales process: From initial introductions to the valuation of your residential property, the pricing phase, the drafting of the contract, the notarized execution of the contract of purchase, payment of the purchase price and compliance with agreements.
Selling property involves a level of trust. Sellers, agents and intermediaries can rest assured that we mean what we say. Arrangements and agreements are strictly adhered to. We will never try to initiate last-minute price negotiations at the meeting with the notary. This complete contract security is part of showing professionalism as a buyer. In the past, we have successfully proven that we responsibly handle all commitments entered into in the course of the purchase.
Our “M&A and Structured Transactions” department carries out due diligence quickly and efficiently. We will let you know whether or not we wish to pursue an offer within a few days, or even within a few hours if time is of the essence. We believe that this is also part of conducting business fairly and professionally, as is discretion and absolute confidentiality.
