Are you looking for low-cost construction financing for an investment in Berlin? We have opened our office in the middle of the trendy Friedrichshain district. We are only 300m away from the Ostkreuz. You can also reach the Oberbaumbrücke and the Spree on foot. There are the many new offices and high-end flats around the Mediaspree project.  A stone's throw to the most important new-build district of modern and up-and-coming Berlin. The area around Mercedes-Benz Platz is 500m away. There is a building boom between Ostkreuz and Ostbahnhof.

Berlin is on its way to becoming one of the leading innovation and high-tech locations in Europe. Since 2005, the economic power in no other federal state has increased so much in percentage terms and Berlin is the only city in Germany, for example, to expect double-digit growth rates for start-ups in 2019. The creativity, positive entrepreneurial spirit and know-how in the digital sector are attracting more and more investors and established companies. The excellent infrastructure, the high potential of skilled workers, the excellent universities, colleges and research institutions were and remain the decisive factors. The city has long been one of the leading research locations in Europe. Among other things, this is ensured by the 39 universities. Science is a field of the future in which further investments are being made. The Adlershof Science Park is already one of the largest of its kind in the world. This is where Berlin tinkers with its future.

One of the largest projects for international investors is the Mediaspree project. Here, a settlement of communication and media companies is being built along the banks of the Spree from the district of Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg to Mitte. State-of-the-art city lofts are being built here. Hotels, administrative buildings and other new buildings are being constructed.

In the 1990s, Prenzlauer Berg was the largest area for the redevelopment of old buildings in Europe. And it was worth it. Today it is one of the most popular districts in the city and is now known far beyond Germany for its high quality of life. It is good that there are still long-established tenants, even though it is estimated that the population has changed by 80% since the fall of the Wall. The mix is what makes it attractive. Here you'll find Swabians, Japanese, latte macchiato mothers and hipsters alongside normal Berliners. Kastanienallee has made a start. Known as "Casting-Allee" in the 90s, boutiques, restaurants, bars and trendy shops of all kinds line up here. But institutions like the Prater with its large beer garden and the off-theatre are still there. From here, the young creatives moved further and further through the streets, opening pop-up shops, small bistros, galleries in the many backyards. In the meantime, a colourful mix has emerged here that is unparalleled and also attracts an international audience.

Trees everywhere, lots of water - Berlin is one of the greenest cities around. The more than 2,500 public green spaces, recreational areas and parks cover a total area of over 5,500 hectares and offer a wide variety of leisure and recreational opportunities. Not only the most famous park in the centre of the city - the Tiergarten - is extremely popular with Berliners and tourists, every district has its green highlight. Even entire forests and lakes are part of the city area. It's not only at the weekends that Berliners go out, because the range of sports and water sports on offer is enormous. The gardens of the State Palaces and Gardens of Berlin-Potsdam invite you to stroll and the many idyllic lakes invite you to swim or sunbathe.

Berlin's largest park is Tempelhofer Feld, which was created on the site of the former Tempelhof Airport. Here, sky, space and freedom seem limitless. Since its opening in 2010, Berlin has been enriched by another special feature - one of the largest inner-city open spaces in the world. Where planes used to take off from Berlin to all corners of the world, there are now over 300 hectares of green open space for skating, strolling, gardening, picnicking, kite surfing and more.

Berlin is one of the most exciting cities in the world - also in cultural terms. As the capital, the city has a special historical status anyway - but even before Berlin became the seat of government, the city was naturally one of the cultural capitals of Europe. So it's no wonder that Berlin's art and culture scene is flourishing. Not least one of the main reasons why more and more people want to visit the city with its many museums, theatres and galleries or even make it their home. The diversity is accordingly huge and offers an overview of Berlin's multifaceted cultural landscape and history. The art scene in Berlin is constantly growing - also thanks to the universities and academies and their graduates. In general, Berlin is a paradise for art lovers of all kinds, whether you visit one of the state museums, peppered with highlights of European and ancient art history, or a current gallery on Auguststraße.

For fans of the performing arts and music, there is of course also plenty on offer. Whether ballet, theatre, musicals, opera or cabaret - it's all there. The theatre scene in Berlin is particularly diverse, with many other stages in addition to the Deutsches Theater, the Berliner Ensemble, the Schaubühne and the Volksbühne am Rosa-Luxemburg-Platz. Along with Vienna, the city is the Mecca of German-language spoken theatre. The Berlin Philharmonic is one of the world's best orchestras and has just been given a new chief conductor in Kirill Petrenko.

Berlin attracts creatives from all over Europe. In no other city in Europe can you find lofts with such large spaces at such reasonable rents. In the artists' studios, fashion studios, media lofts and workshops, you can hear dialects from all German regions and in all languages. Cultural life pulsates. On a daily average, Berlin offers 1,800 cultural events. This inspires cultural workers and creative people, but also puts them under competitive pressure. Around 24,000 companies make up the creative industries in Berlin. These include film, radio, television, fashion design, architecture, publishing, multimedia, games software, music, entertainment, art, culture and advertising.

In the meantime, the scene is spread all over the city, even to the outskirts. Of course, there are still hotspots like Mitte, Kreuzberg or Friedrichshain, but Adlershof, Karlshorst or Pankow are also the place to be.

New forms of work, such as home office arrangements, flexible jobs, or temporary renting in a coworking office, also have a great influence on the housing behaviour of younger people or young families in particular. The area surrounding Berlin is currently growing at a disproportionately fast rate and the "run" on condominiums or single-family homes with small gardens is enormous. The local transport network with suburban trains and buses is excellently developed, and the entire infrastructure around Berlin is now excellent. Not only in the traditionally upper-class areas such as Zehlendorf, Grunewald and beyond to Babelsberg and Potsdam, but also in the east from Pankow and Weißensee to Erkner and Strausberg and beyond, there are excellent places to live.

When the major Berlin-Brandenburg airport is expected to open at the gates of the city at the end of 2020, a completely new centre with many jobs will probably be created here. The entire south of Berlin and the Brandenburg region around this major project will thus become the focus of attention.

The Berlin real estate market remains one of the most interesting and exciting in Europe and it is particularly worthwhile investing here. The city and the entire surrounding area have a great future ahead of them. Because Berlin is never finished, but always in the making.
