Tech Due Diligence for a Real Estate Platform in Berlin

Before a decision, the parties involved needed an independent technical picture of the platform.

An independent technical picture was missing before the decision

A real estate platform based in Berlin faced a decision that needed an independent technical assessment: how viable is the existing architecture, how high is the risk, and what would an expansion cost.

Independent assessment plus target software architecture

As advisors, we were to independently assess the platform's technology and derive a target software architecture from it, a way forward rather than just a list of risks.

Risk picture, target architecture, prioritized next steps

  • Tech DD report

    Assessment of architecture, team, and technical risk for the decision-makers.

  • Risk picture

    Concrete classification of which risks are real and which are negligible.

  • Target software architecture

    Proposal for the architecture the platform should move toward.

  • Recommended actions

    Prioritized next steps for implementation.

Systematic review, separating facts from judgment

The assessment followed the usual DD process: architecture, code, team, and processes were checked systematically, not by spot sampling. Results were presented directly to the decision-makers, with a clear line between what was evidenced and what remained an assessment.

A target architecture was derived directly from the findings, so the report was not just a diagnosis but a foundation for the next decision.

Documented risk picture instead of opinion, architecture as path

The decision-makers had a documented, independent picture of the technical risk before their decision, and a concrete target architecture as the next step, not just an opinion.

Do the DD before the decision, a risk report alone is not enough

  • DD belongs before the decision

    Its value drops the later it comes in the process.

  • A risk report alone is not enough

    Only with a target architecture does the diagnosis become a plan.

  • Separate evidence from assessment

    Decision-makers need both, but kept clearly apart.
