The real estate trustee is an all-rounder in the real estate sector. They are responsible for the management, brokerage, purchase, sale and valuation of real estate. They are entrusted with important and demanding management tasks in the legal, economic and construction fields. They deal with the commercial and technical management of rental and condominium properties as well as commercial and special properties. They calculate the rent for a property and collect rent, ancillary costs and condominium owner contributions. Strategies are drawn up for the initial letting and re-letting of properties, and negotiations with tenants are also part of everyday life. As soon as all parties involved are in agreement, the necessary contracts and documents are drawn up.

The real estate trustee specializes in matters of tenancy law and leasehold law in the public housing sector as well as in the private property sector. He/she is very familiar with the many legal regulations in the construction industry and with the contractual obligations of all parties involved in construction. Sound knowledge of the construction industry, common building and finishing materials as well as general requirements in residential, commercial and industrial construction are just as much a prerequisite as a sound knowledge of building physics. In the area of commercial and technical real estate management, the entire structural infrastructure should not be ignored. This also requires an intensive examination of new technologies and environmental protection issues. The area of responsibility of the real estate trustee also includes the organization and supervision of renovations and repairs within a responsible property or real estate.

The special function in the fiduciary area is in demand for construction supervision and property development, the preparation of construction invoices as well as in an advisory capacity as a client or general contractor.

A further task is to provide clients with competent advice on the management and administration of their property as well as on tax and insurance matters.
