Real estate and market trends in focus

The major trend topics offer numerous opportunities, but also require new business strategies to prepare for changing markets or new consumer habits. We provide orientation on our ‘In the spotlight’ pages.
 

Micro-Living

Micro-Living

Rather than being a passing phenomenon, temporary living is a response to growing flexibility in the worlds of work and education. We are active in the micro-living sector with its student apartments and micro-apartments in order to harness these opportunities, investing both in existing properties and in selected development projects in urban locations.

Digitisation

Digitisation

Digital technologies offer exciting potential for developing more efficient processes and new business models. Union Investment is working at multiple levels along the entire value chain to seize the opportunities around digital technologies.

Sustainability

Sustainability

Sustainable real estate investment seeks to ensure long-term value appreciation. As such, it is driven by clear financial criteria, but the benefits for the environment and society are also crucial aspects of sustainability.

Projektentwicklung

Development projects

Strong demand for real estate has increasingly caused investors to acquire properties during the early stages of a project. At the same time, there is also significant untapped value potential in the existing building stock which can be exploited through refurbishment work.

Renewable Energy

Renewable Energy

The renewable energy market is one of the most prosperous markets and has significant potential for growth. Be it solar, geothermal, photovoltaics, biomass or wind energy (onshore and offshore), renewables are dominating research, politics and industry as an answer to a shortage of resources and an alternative to nuclear power.
