Impact +

Mission impact.

For us, responsibility is so much more than ESG. We transform urban potential into valuable, sustainable and profitable spaces in which to live. We are not only shaping the future of the real estate industry but also setting new standards for sustainable progress. Progress that requires an entrepreneurial mindset if it is to make a real difference.

Research

We want to help shape the future of the real estate industry. To do this, we need to conduct precise analyses of our built environment and understand the forces and interactions that impact on it. This is something that we take seriously: We have been partner to the Real Estate Institute of the Frankfurt School of Finance & Management since it was first founded. This collaboration regularly produces new research findings, which we share with the interested general public in our serial publication "e+k knowledge".

    The motto "New construction at any cost" is outdated. Today, it is more important to work intelligently with existing properties.

  • e+k Sustainability Report 2022

    What makes a property a living space that meets the needs of different generations? This is a question that we put our actions to the test every day. The topic of sustainability has become extremely dynamic in recent years and poses enormous challenges for the real estate industry. It is not enough to deal with the topic verbally and intellectually - the industry must act!

    The importance of sustainability at ehret+klein can be seen above all - you will have guessed it - in our projects and the way we work.

    However, in order to be able to look not only backwards but also forwards, a statistically sound and at the same time neutral assessment of the current situation is required in order to derive possible investment decisions. We have therefore developed a scoring model to assess cities and municipalities with a population of 3,500 or more according to their future prospects, their specific “talents” and their weighting in the context of Munich. 

    The catchy name of the scoring model: METROPOLIXX.

    This location attractiveness scoring for investments was elaborately developed by ehret+klein and bulwiengesa AG.

    Sustainability

    ehret+klein puts social and ecological sustainability into practice and applies the principles of impact investing. Our development projects give priority to remodeling and hybrid-timber buildings, which are regularly certified. We integrate comprehensive mobility concepts in our urban developments via our subsidiary "ek Move". Our subsidiary "ek Upcycle" formulates and implements comprehensive sustainability concepts for our projects and partner companies.

    Art and Culture

    For us, art is more than mere decoration; it is the acquisition of knowledge and a dialog with the community. Artists reflect on urban spaces and the challenges they pose, which gives us as project developers insights into the social context of our projects. To this end, we promote initiatives that breathe new life into land and buildings even before they are developed.
