Cubion Real Estate

What Cubion Real Estate does

CUBION Immobilien AG is a commercial real estate brokerage and advisory firm headquartered in Mülheim an der Ruhr, Germany, operating under the CUBION brand. Founded approximately in 2000, the firm serves enterprise clients seeking office, industrial/logistics, and retail/gastronomy space across the Ruhr region (Ruhrgebiet), with selected activity in adjacent German markets such as Aachen and Dortmund. Its customer base spans healthcare, legal services, engineering, IT, energy, public organizations, and real estate investment, with named engagements ranging from 270 m² office leases to a 25,000 m² investment portfolio sale.

The company's core offering combines transaction brokerage (Vermietung and Verkauf) with proprietary market intelligence, packaged as the Objektsuche property search platform, periodic Marktberichte (market reports), and a Mietpreisspiegel rental price index covering the Ruhrgebiet. Underlying these products is an in-house market research capability that the firm describes as the "solide Informationsbasis" for advisory work. A wholly-owned subsidiary focuses on retail and gastronomy space, complementing the core office and industrial verticals.

CUBION generates revenue through commissions on commercial leasing and sales transactions, operating a sales-led go-to-market in which a 20+ person advisory team delivers direct consultation supported by its own research. Distribution is amplified by its position as an owner-partner within NAI Partners Germany (10 German locations) and the broader NAI Global network (300+ offices worldwide), enabling international referral flow. The firm is privately held as an Aktiengesellschaft with no public listing.

Direct peers

• Robert C. Spies: Bremen-based German commercial real estate brokerage and advisory covering office, retail, industrial, and investment across regional German markets — directly comparable mid-sized competitor structure to CUBION.
• Grossmann & Berger: Hamburg-headquartered German commercial real estate advisory with a long-standing regional brokerage franchise (now part of Robert C. Spies / Avision) — comparable as a mid-sized German CRE broker serving owner-occupiers, investors, and tenants in specific metropolitan clusters.
• NAI Partners Germany: Parent partnership network of which CUBION is an owner-partner; the network consists of multiple regional German CRE brokers (e.g., in Hamburg, Berlin, Munich) offering the same office, industrial, retail, and investment advisory services in their respective geographies.
• Engel & Völkers Commercial: German-rooted real estate services group with a dedicated commercial division (Engel & Völkers Commercial) offering brokerage, investment, and advisory across office, retail, industrial, and logistics — directly comparable offering to CUBION within the German market.

Broad incumbents

• Colliers International Germany: Global CRE services firm with a German brokerage, valuation, and investment advisory business — overlaps directly with CUBION's office and investment advisory mandate but with substantially broader national and international coverage.
• Savills Germany: UK-headquartered CRE advisor with a German office leasing and investment practice — competes with CUBION for occupier mandates in major German cities and for cross-border investor clients.
• JLL Germany: Jones Lang LaSalle's German operations provide office leasing, capital markets, and advisory services that overlap with CUBION's mandate — much larger scale and brand, particularly for institutional and cross-border investors.
• BNP Paribas Real Estate: Large German CRE services platform of BNP Paribas providing investment, brokerage, valuation, and property management across Germany — overlaps with CUBION's advisory offering but operates at a much larger national and international scale.
• Cushman & Wakefield Germany: Global CRE services firm with a German office leasing, investment, and advisory practice — competes for the same enterprise occupier and investor mandates as CUBION, especially in larger regional cities.

Emerging players

• EUREAL: Smaller German CRE advisor providing brokerage and investment services focused on secondary German markets — comparable niche positioning to CUBION in regional commercial real estate intermediation.
