Rooted in Duisburg: Properties We Broker and Manage

Our local knowledge of Duisburg is not a claim, but lived daily practice: from our office in Mülheim an der Ruhr, we manage owners' associations and rental properties across the entire Duisburg city area – from multi-family houses in Hamborn and Meiderich, to condominium developments in Duisburg-Süd, to individual properties around the Inner Harbour.

In brokerage, we regularly support sales of single-family houses in Wedau and Buchholz, market condominiums in Neudorf and the city centre, and assist investors in buying and selling yield properties in northern Duisburg. Through the ongoing management of our own local portfolio, we know first-hand which rents are realistically achievable, which maintenance costs are typical for the region's building ages, and what buyers look out for in each neighbourhood.

This combination of real estate brokerage and property management under one roof sets us apart from pure brokerage firms: anyone buying or selling with us benefits from market data drawn from actually managed properties – not just statistics.
