The sellers in Germany arerepresented by doctors or doctor groups, investors / portfolio holder, and also developers.Credit institutions focused on the healthcare property segment increasingly seek to financemedical centers.While the classic office building accounts for a transparent asset class in Germany, medicalcenters are not covered by market research or other analyses.
