Document Details
This report is produced by Gilardini Realty, a leading private investment firm specializing in the European Healthcare Real Estate (HCRE) market. In 2023, the German HCRE market was valued at approximately €0.9 billion, reflecting a decline in transaction volumes due to economic uncertainties (CBRE, 2024). Despite the downturn, the sector remains underpinned by strong demographic trends, particularly an aging population, which continues to drive demand for healthcare facilities such as assisted living centers, nursing homes, and outpatient medical centers. This report provides an in-depth exploration of the German HCRE market, identifying key growth drivers and emerging trends in this evolving sector.
Main Findings

Opportunities are expected to grow as healthcare system reforms and a focus on outpatient services reshape the market landscape.
