Independent technical advisory for real estate investors in Frankfurt and the Rhein-Main region.
For international family offices and institutional investors who need a technical counterpart on the ground: technical due diligence before acquisition, independent construction monitoring, project controlling for lenders and CapEx planning. Engineer-led, reporting in English, never affiliated with contractors.
Capital decides from a distance. The building reveals itself on site.
International investors evaluate German real estate from spreadsheets and broker decks. What those documents rarely show is the true structural condition, the building services at the end of their life, the hidden refurbishment backlog and the CapEx that will land after closing.
The parties who know the building, the seller, the developer, the contractor, all have an interest in a fast, smooth transaction. None of them is the right party to verify the technical substance for the buyer.
That gap is what we close. Schneider Theißing acts purely on the owner side: an independent engineer who inspects, quantifies and reports, so the capital side decides on facts rather than on a polished narrative.
Tell us briefly about the property or project. We respond within one working day.
Four ways we support the capital side.
Pre-acquisition assessment of structure, building services, defects and refurbishment backlog. Defect register, risk classification and CapEx estimate as a clear basis for the investment decision.
Independent supervision of the construction phase on behalf of the owner. Quality control, verification of progress against invoices, review of variation claims.
For banks and equity partners financing a development: verification that drawdowns match the actual construction progress, with a standardised progress report.
Multi-year CapEx planning for held assets, technical condition tracking and an assessment of the energy and stranded-asset risk of the building.
An engineer who reports to capital, not to the building site.
- Independent: We work only for the owner. No contractor, developer or planner affiliation.
- Engineer-led: The analysis comes from a civil engineer, not from a generalist or a database.
- English reporting: We translate the technically relevant findings so non-German-speaking investors decide with full understanding.
- Regional depth: Frankfurt, the Rhein-Main region and the Bergstraße are our home market, not a remote engagement.
- Decision-grade output: Clear reports with figures, risk ratings and recommended next steps.
Built for the capital side.
- International family offices acquiring or holding German real estate
