Portfolio Due Diligence

Portfolio transactions are inherently complex, often involving assets across several countries, construction standards and regulatory frameworks — all under very tight timelines. TA Europe specialises in turning this complexity into clear, reliable and comparable results.

What sets our Portfolio Due Diligence apart
- Ability to mobilise TDD teams at very short notice, without lengthy internal approval chains
- Experience in nearly all European markets
- Creation of a comprehensive portfolio summary sheet to check plausibility and identify inconsistencies
- Dedicated Technical Transaction Manager as single point of contact for all teams and stakeholders
- Consistent methodology and comparable reporting across all countries

Technical Audits

Building and portfolio audits provide owners, investors and lenders with a reliable assessment of compliance, operational status and contractual alignment. TA Europe performs targeted on-site reviews, evaluates existing documentation and highlights risks that influence operational, financial or transaction-related decisions.

What is included in an audit?
- Assessment of buildings against legal and regulatory requirements
- Review of compliance with contractual obligations
- On-site inspections
- Analysis of existing documentation (e.g. building permits, fire safety records, maintenance reports)
- Verification of lease agreements regarding maintenance cost responsibilities and cosmetic repairs
- Review of reinstatement obligations at lease expiry
Outcome of an audit
- Clear status-quo overview of the property or portfolio
- Identification of compliance gaps and key technical or operational risks
- Recommendations to ensure safe and efficient operation
- CAPEX and OPEX planning support, coordinated with the PM team
- Basis for potential divestment, incl. identification of “quick wins” in alignment with asset management
Client benefit
- Greater operational certainty and risk transparency
- Fulfilment of ownership obligations and regulatory duties
- Protection of landlord responsibilities towards tenants
- Clarity on required interventions and priorities
- Foundation for asset or portfolio strategy development
