Our Philosophy

True to our lifecycle-oriented consulting approach, we consider the integration of acquired properties and optimal operation already at the time of acquisition. Incorporating ESG components into our consulting is part of our standard repertoire. We are transformation consultants and ensure that our clients’ economic success is always the focus.

The interdisciplinary collaboration at Rödl between legal, tax, and financial experts offers significant added value for our clients. This is evident not only in the interface-optimized due diligence review but runs like a common thread through the entire project.

Real Estate Forensic

We want to provide you with comprehensive advisory for your real estate project. Therefore, we also stand by your side if disputes with your contractual partner should arise after the contract is concluded.

In conflicts, we take a solution-oriented approach and keep your interests in mind. We therefore pay great attention to the speed and cost-efficiency of dispute resolution and try to resolve conflicts without courts if possible. Sometimes, however, there is no way around litigation. Should this become necessary, we will represent you in court and enforce your interests.

Our focus areas

  • Property Defects
  • Disputes over Purchase Price Retentions
  • Conflicts with Tenants or Neighbors
