Real Estate Consulting
The real estate industry has received a major boost from the financial uncertainty brought about by the Eurozone crisis over the past few years. Real estate is a primary focus for investors, more than ever. Given the right location, real estate investments are seen by investors as secure, long-term capital. However, successful completion of a real estate project requires overcoming a number of challenges. Local conditions and continually changing tax regulations have a significant influence on the value of any real estate investment. Professional consultation and continuing support are therefore essential at every stage of the value-added chain, for the different challenges each one brings.
