FRANKFURT: International investors are skirting German property deals as they dial back on a market in its worst crisis in a generation, potentially deepening the scars on Europe’s biggest economy.
Foreign buyers accounted for 35% of purchases of commercial real estate in the first quarter, data from BNP Paribas Real Estate shows. That is less than in any year since 2013 and comes against the backdrop of a 70% plunge in sales volumes from levels before the 2020-2021 pandemic.
