We feel it is a privilege to provide people with their most important place: their home. These values serve as the foundation for every decision we make and how we engage with one another.

The Elephant Way

Founded in 1991 in Berlin’s Prenzlauer Berg, we are proud to own, develop, acquire and manage real estate in the city. As a family-owned company, we renovate with care and create lasting value , not only for today, but for future generations of tenants. We call this approach the Elephant Way.

Thoughtful tenant care

We build strong relationships by listening carefully, responding promptly and always putting people first. We want our tenants to feel heard, respected and at home. That’s how trust can grow  and how we create spaces where comfort and community are the fundament.

Our team

Those who join our team tend to stay, often for decades. Every day, we work together toward our shared vision. Our approach is built on three pillars: Autonomy, Excellence and Purpose. Read about them above. And here are a few voices from within the team:

Kevin Bulicke

Property Manager

What I enjoy most is the variety in my job. I get to be out and about in the apartments and in touch with tenants, but I also take care of all kinds of things from the office. And the fact that I work right in the heart of the city, surrounded by life is just the icing on the cake.

Inka Gernhardt

Investment manager

I love the positive energy in our office. No two days are the same and neither are we. While we’re all heading in the same direction, each of us owns our individual responsibilities. That sense of trust and ownership is incredibly empowering.

Hargen Bartels

Founder and CEO

What amazes me about Berlin is that not a single day goes by without change. Witnessing and contributing to this dynamic has always given me a lot of purpose and made me proud. Today, I am very excited and curious to see the process continue.
