Real estate
Tax advice for real estate and construction
Letting, development, long-term holding: with property, the structure decides how much of the return remains.
What you gain
Private, limited company or asset-managing entity – the decision lasts for decades. Reports for each property instead of one total across the portfolio.
Holding periods, depreciation and documentation requirements properly recorded. Gifts and succession can only be shaped in advance.

- Property owners and investors
- Property developers
- Architecture practices

The wrong structure

Unclear allocation
Maintenance expense or production cost – the distinction decides on immediate deduction.

Frequently asked questions
Frequently asked questions
How does switching from my current firm work?
Once you have given your approval, we request the records from your previous adviser and take over the accounting data. A change is possible at any time; the turn of the year is the simplest.
What documents do you need to begin?
For the first conversation: none. To take over we need the last annual accounts, the current accounting data and the tax office access details. We will tell you exactly what is missing.
Do I still need to print my receipts?
No. Receipts can be submitted digitally. If you prefer paper, that also works – we adapt to your business.
Do you also advise clients outside Berlin?
Yes. The collaboration works regardless of location. Meetings take place at the office or online, whichever suits better.
What does it cost?
That depends on the scope. After the first conversation you receive a written proposal with scope and fee before we begin. Fees follow the German tax advisers’ fee regulation; individual agreements are possible. Our fee is based on the actual work involved and the complexity of your case – not on the statutory minimum rate of the German tax advisers’ fee regulation.
Is the first conversation chargeable?
The first conversation to get to know each other is free of charge. It serves to clarify your situation and the possible scope.
Which languages can we speak?
This website is available in German, English, Russian and Polish. Which languages are possible for ongoing support is something we clarify in the first conversation.
What happens if a deadline gets tight?
We keep an eye on deadlines and get in touch in good time. If records are missing, we say so early enough for there to be time left.
