LDPServicesFour services, one process: how LDP handles your German property investment
LDP Group finds, finances, structures and manages rental property in Germany for expats and international professionals. Sourcing, financing coordination and tax structuring are included in the investment service; management runs through our own company FairMieten at a flat fee per tenant. Every step in English, in nine cities, for properties from 100,000 euros.
Anonymised figures from LDP's published business cases. Every number on this page is computed from the same dataset.
One team for the whole investment
Most providers cover one piece: a broker arranges the loan, an agent finds the flat, a Hausverwaltung collects the rent, and a tax advisor meets the property at the first return. LDP runs the four pieces as one sequence, because each decision constrains the next.
Property sourcing and acquisition
We find it, check it, negotiate it and take you through the notary.
- Existing buildings, co-living conversions and full renovations, never new builds
- Nine cities, from 100,000 euros to seven figures
- Remote purchase by power of attorney if you cannot travel
Mortgage financing for expats
A German bank loan, arranged in English, at no extra cost to you.
- Residents of Germany and other EU countries, any nationality
- Independent broker FM Zinswerk compares more than 400 banks
- About four weeks from first call to approval
Tax-optimised structuring
The structure is decided before you buy, not at the first tax return.
- Depreciation, land and building split, renovation costs, ten-year rule
- Tax advice by our partner firm Helm & Partner, coordinated by LDP
- Annual German return available for non-residents
Rental management and tenant placement
Our own management company, so the people who planned it also run it.
- In every city we operate in: FairMieten in Berlin and Bremen, vetted partners elsewhere, for example Miethelden in Munich
- Flat fee from 30 euros per tenant per month, no percentage of rent
- Placement, contracts, rent, maintenance and annual statements included
From screening call to first rent
Five steps, one contact at LDP throughout. Nothing is shown before we know it fits you.
What our clients' properties actually earn
These are not projections. They are the published cases of LDP clients, anonymised and aggregated: purchase price, cold rent before we touched the property, cold rent after renovation, conversion or re-letting, and the tax benefit in the first year.
Average cold rent per month across the published cases of each concept. Before: rent at purchase. After: rent after renovation, conversion or re-letting. The multiple on the right is after divided by before.
Cold rent times twelve, divided by purchase price, averaged over all published cases, before costs and tax.
Purchase price of the published cases.
- Munich 80 %
- Nuremberg 13 %
- Berlin 5 %
- Vilshofen 2 %
Share of purchase volume by city.
Source: LDP business cases, published, anonymised and aggregated by concept. Gross yield is cold rent times twelve divided by purchase price, before costs and tax. Tax benefit is the first-year figure from the case calculation and depends on the client's marginal rate. Past cases are no guarantee for future results.
Five worked examples, one per situation
A co-living conversion in each of our three main cities, a standard rental for those who want no shared flat, and a modernised studio for a smaller ticket.
| City | Concept | Purchase price | Cold rent before | Cold rent after | Gross yield after | First-year tax benefit |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Munich | 3-room co-living | 525,000 EUR | 1,400 | 2,325 | 5.3 % | 18,000 EUR |
| Nuremberg | 3-room co-living, full renovation | 307,000 EUR | 600 | 1,400 | 5.5 % | 26,500 EUR |
| Berlin | 3-room co-living | 327,000 EUR | 900 | 1,800 | 6.6 % | 23,200 EUR |
| Nuremberg | Standard rental | 250,000 EUR | 700 | 950 | 4.6 % | 27,000 EUR |
| Munich, Maxvorstadt | Modernised studio | 344,000 EUR | 900 | 1,300 | 4.5 % | 9,997 EUR |
All five are real client purchases from the LDP case library, anonymised. Further cases are walked through in the screening call.
Clear before you start
Three of the four services are part of the investment service and carry no separate fee to LDP. Management is a flat monthly amount per tenant. Purchase costs go to the state and the notary, as with any purchase in Germany.
Who we work with, and who we do not
This is for you if
- You live in Germany or elsewhere in the EU and want rental property without a second job running it.
- You are looking at a purchase from 100,000 euros upward and want purchase, financing, tax and management handled by one team. That is the property price, not the cash you need: financing covers most of it.
- You cannot attend viewings or the notary in person and need the purchase handled remotely.
- You already own a property in one of our nine cities and need English-speaking management.
What we do not do
- Tax or legal advice from LDP itself; both come from partner firms.
- Financing for buyers living outside the EU.
Founders who check every number, partners on every case
LDP Group is a Munich-based investment firm, active since 2022, with more than 100 clients, most of them expats buying their first investment property in Germany. Every purchase calculation and every page on this site is reviewed by the two founders before it reaches you.

Rental management, Berlin and Bremen
Rental management, MunichFrequently asked questions
Do I have to take all four services, or can I use just one?
Sourcing, financing coordination and tax structuring come together as the investment service, because they depend on each other. Rental management is set up as part of the purchase for LDP clients, and in every city we operate in we can take on properties you already own, case by case.
What does LDP charge?
Sourcing, financing coordination and structure design are included in the investment service; there is no separate advisory or brokerage fee to you, the bank pays the broker. Rental management is a flat fee from 30 euros per tenant per month, depending on the city. Purchase costs such as transfer tax, notary and land registry are paid as with any purchase in Germany.
Can I invest with LDP if I do not live in Germany?
Yes, if you live in another EU country. Financing then runs at 50 to 60 percent loan-to-value and the purchase can be completed by power of attorney. We do not take on buyers living outside the EU, because the lender pool and the conditions are too poor to recommend.
Which cities does LDP work in?
Berlin, Munich, Nuremberg, Erlangen, Fuerth, Duesseldorf, Cologne, Stuttgart and Karlsruhe for sourcing. Rental management in every city we operate in: through our own company FairMieten in Berlin and Bremen, and through vetted local partners elsewhere, for example Miethelden Muenchen in Munich.
