OUR APPROACH

What makes us unique

As part of the global IMAP partnership, we primarily advise mid-sized entrepreneurs and founders, but also corporate groups and financial investors on the sale of companies, business units or portfolio companies. In our 50-person team in Germany, we combine broad transaction experience and in-depth industry knowledge from hundreds of deals – enriched by the knowledge and access of our IMAP partners worldwide.

We are value-driven, empathetic and down-to-earth – and have been ranked among the top 10 M&A consultancies (globally and in Germany) for years. Our clients recommend us – as do many of our close cooperation partners, including numerous savings banks, leading asset managers, financing partners, legal and tax advisors, and other providers of complementary advisory services.

IMAP values

We share the same common values and principles that guide our work, with our clients and with each other.

EXECUTION:

‘Strike while the iron is hot’ – we design each step of the M&A process to increase the probability of successful execution.

DEDICATION:

We are entrepreneurs and invest in to each transaction what is needed to succeed and abide by and continuously improve professional advisory standards.

Informality:

Mastering the psychology of negotiations requires getting to know the people involved in the transaction.

Talent:

Creating value for our clients requires looking beyond the obvious and leveraging the diversity of our resources to come up with fresh ideas.

ADDITIONAL EXPERTISE IN

real estate

In addition to our advisory services described under "Services", IMAP Germany has specific expertise in the strategic handling of real estate assets. We help to optimize and realize the value of real estate assets regardless of their economic situation. Optimal results require a structured, international sales process.

We develop an appropriate strategy for single assets or portfolios and identify suitable buyers on an international scale. We analyze and evaluate incoming offers and minimize any transaction risks. Compliance with international best practice standards is essential in executing a structured sales process. Our real estate transactions range from approximately EUR 20 – 300 million.

Our services include

  • Transaction advice (purchase and sale) for individual properties, portfolios or companies in the real estate industry
  • Raising capital for project developments and investment strategies
  • Support in the (re)financing of existing properties and portfolios
  • Advice on the realization of operationally necessary / non-operationally necessary real estate (e.g. sale-and-lease-back)
  • Management of the entire transaction or financing process (search for suitable targets, due diligence process, LOI and closing)
