Frequently asked questions about buying, selling, financing, and living in Schwäbisch Gmünd — concisely answered.
For owners in Schwäbisch Gmünd who wish to sell their property and continue to live in it, FREITAG® offers the classic property annuity (Immobilienverrentung) — via usufruct (Nießbrauch), Right of residence, Leaseback or Life annuity. You release the capital tied up in your house or condominium in Schwäbisch Gmünd and secure a right of residence registered in the land registry.
The model that is particularly in demand is Usufruct: You remain the economic owner, are in the first rank in the land registry, and can even rent out the property if needed. An owner-occupancy termination is contractually excluded for all four models.
Whether it's care costs, gifts to heirs, or a noticeably higher pension: We will check for owners in Schwäbisch Gmünd, free of charge, which model suits their life situation, and obtain offers from selected investors and foundations.
For many businesses, capital is tied up in Schwäbisch Gmünd 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 Schwäbisch Gmünd. We structure these points so that the sales proceeds and the subsequent rental burden are in a reasonable relationship.
Hospitality properties in Schwäbisch Gmünd are valued differently from residential properties: Key factors are turnover, contribution margin, seating capacity, kitchen technology, licences, and whether the business can function without the previous owner. We value based on the earnings approach and openly state which portions are attributable to the property, inventory, and goodwill.
Marketing is conducted discreetly. A publicly visible sales offer unsettles staff, regular customers, and suppliers in Schwäbisch Gmünd — therefore, we approach interested parties specifically and under a confidentiality agreement.
Whether selling, leasing, or handing over to a successor within the family: We structure the path that suits the situation of your business in Schwäbisch Gmünd , and accompany you until the notary or lease agreement appointment.
