Real Estate Finance

We advise borrowers, lenders and investors on the finance and refinance of individual property and real-estate portfolio acquisitions, as well as on the restructuring of existing financing. In addition to classical bank finance, our advice also includes finance through mezzanine and shareholder loans or typical and atypical forms of shareholdings as well as on structuring closed real estate funds.
Our advice covers both finance under German law as well as international finance, particularly standard LMA contracts. We work closely with colleagues in our foreign partner law firms in this area, as needed. If several financing parties are involved, we also advise on the relationship and security among individual lenders. In addition, we also support lenders in the purchase of credit receivables.
We advise lenders and borrowers about the risks involved with, and possible solutions for non-performing loans as well as on matters of breaches of contract and the liquidation of collateral.
In addition, we support our clients in the finance of larger construction projects and real estate development projects.
