In its main sector of business activities, real estate development, UBM is subject to project-specific fluctuations. It is attempted here to balance these with income from the rental of the real estate portfolio. However, the portfolio, which has been established over a decades-long course, is not only intended for the generation of rental income; it also places UBM in the position of being able to select the optimum moment to evaluate properties. The UBM corporate group thus has real estate with a total combined plot size of more than 1.3 million square meters.

These property assets are distributed throughout all of Europe, with 60% of the real estate located in foreign countries. This is an important factor for the strategic market processing. The rented areas at a size of approx. 130,000 square meters comprise approx. 60% offices, approx. 35% retail, and approx. 5% residential space.
