On the seller's side, sustained demand points to a solid market position, even if the sharpest price jumps are likely behind us for the time being.

Frequently asked questions about buying, selling, financing, and living in Dunkelsteinerwald — concisely answered.
Many owners in Dunkelsteinerwald are sitting on an asset that they cannot access because they do not want to give up their home. This is precisely whatProperty annuity (Immobilienverrentung) is for: The sale takes place, but the move-out does not. Depending on the model — Usufruct, Right of abode, Life annuity or Leaseback — the purchase price is paid as a lump sum, as a monthly annuity, or as a combination of both.
Security is crucial: The right of abode (Wohnrecht) is entered in the land register (Grundbuch) in the first rank, before the buyer is registered as the owner. We will calculate for your property in Dunkelsteinerwald how much the usufruct (Nießbrauch) value reduces the purchase price — and whether this is more profitable compared to a traditional sale.
We approach this with an open mind. If a normal sale with a subsequent move is economically better for you, we will tell you — instead of trying to sell a property annuity (Immobilienverrentung) model that doesn't suit your needs.
For many businesses, capital is tied up in Dunkelsteinerwald in their own property instead of in operational business. Sale & Lease-Back solves this: sale to an investor, simultaneously a long-term lease agreement that secures usage. Business operations, address, and workforce remain where they are.
A lot changes in the balance sheet — the property leaves the fixed assets, depreciation becomes rental expense. Whether this is advantageous for your company depends on the legal form, financing structure, and tax starting position; therefore, we calculate this together with your tax advisor before anything is signed.
Crucial for the achievable price are the lease agreement term, creditworthiness, and third-party usability (Drittverwendungsfähigkeit) of the property in Dunkelsteinerwald. We structure these points so that the sales proceeds and the subsequent rental burden are in a reasonable relationship.
Owners of hotels and restaurants in Dunkelsteinerwald who wish to sell their hospitality property or lease it want, will find FREITAG® to be a partner for the Horeca sector. We broker everything from traditional guesthouses and cafés to hotels and boarding houses to investors and successors who understand the industry.
Selling a hotel in Dunkelsteinerwald without business interruption is a complex task: We assist with valuation, discreet exposé creation, and approaching suitable buyer groups — for ongoing operations as well as for properties with conversion potential.
Alternatively, we lease: solvent tenants with industry experience, checking of creditworthiness and concept, long-term predictable lease income. For every hospitality property in Dunkelsteinerwald the right strategy.
