Clear demands for the turn of the building: We reach climate goals!

This is the hard reality: Z Astonishing 42 % of residential properties in Germany have an energy efficiency class of E or worse! This is not just a number, but a pressing signal that affects us all. The current renovation rate of only 0.7 % remains far behind the necessary goal of 2 % in order to achieve climate neutrality. A real rethink is required!

clear need for action!

dr. Gesa Crockford, the managing director of Immoscout24, sums it up: "What we need now are clear impulses from politics!" The renovations have slowed down complex bureaucratic hurdles and unstable grants. This has to change, because time is pushing! The question remains: How can Germany create this paradigm shift?

• Political support necessary: ​​ simple KfW loan and binding guidelines for inventory renovation must be on the agenda! Politicians, take these demands to heart - the future of living depends on it!
• serial renovation: Modular construction offers a great opportunity to lift the renovation backlog and at the same time combat a shortage of skilled workers. Here is the key to mobilize the property owners!
• Reactivation of the inventory: Programs such as "Jung buys old" should be kept alive in the long term! Old buildings can donate new lives if the will and support are available.

brought to a denominator: Energetic modernization is not only essential for the achievement of the climate goals, it also harbors enormous potential for increasing the value of real estate! Jan Sprengnetter, CEO of the Sprengnetter Group, emphasizes that this modernization also offers economic opportunities. "Targeted measures can drive the transformation forward and open up new economic potential," he says.

The industry calls for unity! The turn of the building is one of the biggest challenges in the fight against climate change. Real estate owners, investors and politics urgently need to pull together! Otherwise, the big climate goals that stand for a better future could be endangered.
