English-speaking property management in ErlangenYour flat in Erlangen. Let, managed, sorted.
English-speaking property management in Erlangen for investors, landlords and owners’ associations: clean handovers, quick re-letting, and owners’ meetings that reach decisions even with many non-resident owners.
Erlangen runs on the university, the hospital and Siemens, with short tenancies and many owners who don’t live locally. We handle handovers, re-letting and owners’ meetings so you don’t have to travel for them.
You can’t tell good management by its fee. You can tell it by how little you have to deal with, and by how well your property holds up.

Your property
Less fabric, more turnover.
Erlangen shifts management work from building fabric to turnover: more tenant changes, more handovers, more fixed-term and furnished lets than in Nuremberg or Fürth.
up to 1930
City centre and old town
Small associations, often with shops on the ground floor and strong demand for small units. Structural issues around roofs, pipes and damp.
Mixed use billed correctly, costs allocated according to the resolutions.

Near the university and hospital
Bruck, Alterlangen, Sieglitzhof: many investor flats with short tenancies. The work comes from handovers, deposits and re-lettings.
A well-oiled letting process, handover reports with photos, short vacancies.
from 2000
Röthelheimpark and new developments
Modern complexes with underground parking, lifts and sometimes district heating. Technically demanding but predictable; the work lies in contracts and warranties.
In Erlangen, we manage in areas including Innenstadt, Altstadt, Bruck, Alterlangen, Büchenbach, Röthelheimpark, Tennenlohe, Sieglitzhof, Anger, Sebaldussiedlung.
Switching managers
A new manager in Erlangen? Easier than you think.
Associations in Erlangen often consist mainly of investors who don’t live locally. That’s the most common reason to switch: what’s missing isn’t bookkeeping, but the preparation that makes a decision possible at all. We work with proxy management and complete documents in advance, and organise the switch itself end to end.

Mixed use with shops on the ground floor: separate cost allocation
District heating and heating cost statements under the Heating Costs Ordinance
Reporting warranty defects in new developments on time
Frequently asked questions about property management in Erlangen
How much does property management cost in Erlangen?
It depends on the number of units, year of construction and condition, not on the city. We’re rarely the cheapest manager in Erlangen, and don’t aim to be: our fee pays for contacts who respond, an engineer’s review of every quote, and resolutions that get implemented. We state the exact price in a written offer after the inspection.
Do you handle re-letting?
Yes: listing, viewings, credit checks, tenancy agreement and handover report. With Erlangen’s high turnover, that’s everyday work, not an extra project.
Do you also manage furnished lets?
Yes. We keep statements, inventories and handovers accordingly, and define the scope in our offer.
How do owners’ meetings work when many owners don’t live locally?
Preparation with the advisory board, an invitation with complete documents and a proxy form, chairing the meeting, then implementing the resolutions with a visible status in the portal.
Your property in Erlangen deserves more than management by the book.
