wvm Group Berlin plans to complete 300 apartments in 2026

In order to generate time and efficiency advantages and to achieve consistently higher construction quality, the wvm Group Berlin is increasingly relying on construction with industrially prefabricated parts. "This allows us to achieve shorter construction times and advantages in project financing," says David Fischer, Managing Director of WvM Berlin Immobilien + Projektentwicklung GmbH. "In addition, prefabrication in the factory also enables us to build with higher energy efficiency. As a result, our buyers will benefit from attractive promotional loans and, as investors, they will benefit from the possibility of higher depreciation."

With this in mind, the wvm Group Berlin will work together with the parent company in Cologne in 2026 on product optimization. "We are focusing on the development of subsidy-optimized housing projects and will therefore integrate internal subsidy checkpoints with energy advice and review of the respective cost ceilings in the early project phases," says Dr. Clemens Paschke. "In this way, we want to meet the requirements of the best possible standards in each case."

For 2026, the wvm Group Berlin plans to complete four new construction projects with a total of around 300 rental and owner-occupied apartments. These include the residential complexes Liebermannstraße 70 with a total of 48 units, Berkenbrücker Steig 18–19 with 44 residential units, Roelckestraße 111 with 60 apartments and the first construction phase of the Zwieseler Hof in Berlin-Karlshorst with 147 apartments. "We expect to receive several building permits for the project pipeline in the first months of the new year, including projects with a total volume of over 230 apartments in condominium and rental housing, which are designed for both investors and owner-occupiers," says David Fischer. "In addition, construction of a new project in Potsdam is scheduled to start in late summer 2026. In addition, we are planning to purchase four further projects in Berlin and the surrounding area."

The wvm Group Berlin is satisfied with the sales result. In 2025, the company sold a total of 140 apartments in Berlin, thus achieving its sales targets. "We expect demand to remain subdued," says Dr. Clemens Paschke. "Because nothing will change in the basic economic conditions in the coming months. In particular, interest rates and capital requirements of banks are likely to remain at the recently noticeably higher level. This limits the circle of buyers. We will therefore build even more target-group-oriented and convince with a suitable and affordable product," says David Fischer.
