»L.Immo online« – The research platform for logistics real estate

In the real estate market, logistics real estate is now seen as a category in itself. Nonetheless, this sector remains relatively untouched as far as market data analysis and the provision of impartial location-based information are concerned. Thanks to its comprehensive basis of logistics real estate data, the Fraunhofer Center for Applied Research on Supply Chain Services SCS provides greater transparency on the logistics real estate market in Germany. In addition to providing individual consultancy services, Fraunhofer SCS offers its customers access to the most up-to-date market and site data at any time via its interactive platform, which is available in German and English.

Fraunhofer SCS has been analyzing developments in the field of logistics real estate for over ten years now. The market is booming and has a large number of stakeholders. After all, investors, project developers, users and municipal governments see siting, building and further developing logistics centers and buildings as a commercially and financially attractive proposition – provided that the conditions are right.

Fraunhofer SCS analyzes and evaluates these conditions in a scientifically grounded way and makes the results available to customers. Now, the results are available in digital form, too, thanks to »L.Immo online«: the platform provides the basis for investment decisions, site and real estate valuations. And it is accessible to all stakeholders – not only users, investors and project developers, but also real estate agents, consultants and municipal providers of space.
