"Waiting destroys values" – Oreda expands in the market for special real estate situations

"Waiting is no longer an option – waiting destroys values. Many engagements are carried into the future with the hope that tomorrow everything will be better than today. Failure to act actively carries the risk that existing problems will worsen and losses in value will become irreversible," says Dr. Christopher Yvo Oertel, Managing Director of Oreda GmbH.

In the company's view, the current market phase is a situation that will last at least in the medium term, in which the framework conditions for financing, risk allocation and performance have changed sustainably compared to the 2010s. Some of these drivers are historical in nature or represent a return to original framework conditions. In addition, however, there are new causes or a combination of them that are now taking effect. Currently, this is particularly evident in the rapid development of the possible applications of artificial intelligence and its sometimes disruptive effects on business models, as well as in a wide range of geopolitical challenges.

"Instead of postponing the problems, it is crucial to restore institutional ability to act. This usually requires the development of individual solutions that combine capital structure, regulatory requirements and the strategic real estate perspective in order to lay the foundation for active action," adds Dr. Daniel Landgraf, Managing Director of Oreda GmbH.

This is where Oreda's business model comes in. The company combines an in-depth understanding of institutional capital structures with strategic real estate expertise. Oreda has so far advised on both debt asset management mandates and complex restructuring and transaction mandates.

"Restructuring is not primarily a legal or administrative discipline, but requires a holistic and integrated approach right through to operational implementation," says Oertel. "Value-preserving solutions are usually only created if it is possible to build a bridge between capital and real estate or between investors and real estate entrepreneurs."

Oreda therefore offers a corresponding range of services, from the active management of financing commitments to the stabilisation of complex project and investment situations as well as the structuring of viable refinancing solutions and rescue acquisitions.

In addition to ongoing mandates in debt asset management and strategic financing consulting, Oreda is currently working on various special situations. These include, among other things, a prominent hotel project that has been restructured in recent months and is now about to be marketed. Other commitments are at various stages of implementation.

"The next real estate cycle cannot be based on hopeful values – the phase in which time creates value is over. Entrepreneurial success requires a clear strategic orientation, coupled with specialized real estate know-how, a profound understanding of capital markets and resilient stakeholder management," says Landgraf. "Our aim is to develop solutions that are analytically sound, operationally feasible and with clear responsibility towards all parties involved."

Oreda deliberately sees itself as a boutique with a high level of depth of content and close client support at management level. Growth is targeted and quality-oriented – through the expansion of complementary competencies as well as through scalable processes and technological support.
