Selling a residential complex in the Ruhr region

Selling a residential complex means correctly assessing a larger unit with many tenancies and corresponding income potential – and reaching the right buyers for it. This is exactly where Brockhoff comes in.

Brockhoff has been owner-managed since 1987 and specialises in commercial real estate and investment properties. We value your residential complex objectively, prepare the documentation and approach precisely those investors for whom your portfolio is a fit – regionally in the Ruhr region and nationwide.

Discretion

Sell discreetly – without a public shop window

On request, we market residential complexes without any public listing at all: we present your portfolio specifically to vetted investors from our network. This protects existing tenancies, your property management and your confidentiality.

A managed, personal approach to buyers also often leads to a better result than a widely circulated listing – because only serious, vetted prospects are introduced to your residential complex.

Your situation

Are you selling in one of these situations?

Portfolio holders & owners

You are parting with a residential complex or divesting parts of your housing portfolio – we handle the valuation, preparation and discreet marketing.

Institutional owners & family offices

Funds, family offices and asset-holding structures wishing to sell a residential complex in a targeted manner or restructure their portfolio.

Developers & project developers

You wish to sell a completed residential complex or one under construction as a whole (en bloc) to an investor – we connect you with the right group of buyers.

Communities of heirs & companies

Larger housing portfolios from an inheritance or business assets that are to be sold in a structured and neutral way – transparent for all parties involved.

What is your residential complex worth?

The value of a residential complex is derived from the sustainably achievable rents across all units, the state of maintenance and the location – not from a flat price per square metre. We determine it on the basis of your lease agreements and real comparable transactions in the Ruhr region. Personal, confidential and free of charge for you. For an initial assessment, the rent roll and a few key details about the complex are all we need.
Our services

How we bring your residential complex to sale

Property analysis

We record the condition, years of construction, floor areas and state of maintenance of all buildings in your residential complex and position it within its market environment.

Lease & tenant structure analysis

We analyse lease agreements, tenant structure, vacancy and income situation across all units – the basis for a robust valuation.

Location analysis

Location, micro-location and developments in the Ruhr region are factored into the valuation and marketing strategy.

Comparable transactions

We benchmark your residential complex against real comparable transactions – rather than theoretical guideline values.

Buyer demand

Through our network, we know which institutional investors and portfolio holders are currently looking for residential complexes in the Ruhr region.

Realistic price range

You receive a transparent price range – as the basis for marketing without an inflated asking price.

Marketing strategy

En bloc as a package or in parts, discreetly off-market or publicly – we choose the approach that suits your complex and your objective.
