The founding team

The company employs staff in the skilled trades: tilers, painters and drywall installers. In addition to project development, Kotscher GmbH also offers interior fit-out services.
The challenge
For a real estate project of this scale, comprehensive bank financing was required. The increased material costs (approx. +35% compared to the original calculation) placed additional demands on the financial planning.
The bank required a detailed business plan with:
- Project description and construction planning
- Location analysis of the Brand business park
- Financing structure and proof of equity
- Profitability calculation and exit strategy
Our solution
Business Start EU prepared a comprehensive business plan for the bank financing:
- Detailed project description and construction concept
- Market and location analysis for the Brand business park
- Complete financial planning with itemized construction costs
- Liquidity planning for the construction phase
- Profitability calculation and marketing strategy
- Support for the bank presentation
The result
Kotscher GmbH was able to successfully close the bank financing. The project in the Brand business park is in implementation and contributes to the development of the commercial area.
