Construction of residential buildings abroad

In 2018, Tranio offered its customers new ready-made solutions for investment: its own projects for the reconstruction and construction of real estate abroad. The plans for 2019 are to create a cross-border online platform for real estate investments for investors with a budget of 500 euros.

What else do we remember in 2018?

12 value added projects in Europe
In 2018, the Tranio team helped clients acquire about 200 properties. 78 of them are commercial properties that provide our customers with a stable income in foreign currency. The company’s revenue increased by one and a half times compared with 2017.

A new direction of the company’s development is its own value added projects. At the moment we are already implementing 12 projects for the construction and reconstruction of real estate in Germany, Greece, Great Britain and Spain.

“We are witnessing the formation of the next generation of investors who have already acquired the experience of rental business or other investments abroad and who are willing to take reasonable risks for the sake of profitability at 8–15% per annum,” said Georgiy Kachmazov, managing partner of Tranio.

In December, the construction of the first floor of a residential building in Hamburg is nearing completion – this is one of the Tranio projects launched in 2018

Tranio plans for 2019 to launch the world’s first cross-border online platform for real estate investment. Tranio will offer investors three types of solutions depending on their budget: individual projects (from 2 million euros), club deals (100 thousand – 2 million euros) and crowdfunding (from 500 euros). Investments in the rental business and construction projects and the reconstruction of real estate abroad will be available to investors online.

3 new offices in Russia and abroad
In 2018, the Tranio team was joined by 35 new employees – specialists in sales, analytics and marketing. We have opened three new offices in Samara, Athens and Berlin. Tranio now speaks seven languages: English, Spanish, Italian, Chinese, German, Turkish and Farsi!

Comments on Forbes and the Financial Times
Tranio’s expertise in cross-border real estate investment is growing. We continue to cooperate with the Russian-language media: Tranio articles were published more than 120 times, we gave 70 expert comments in 2018. Tranio has got its own channel on the Yandex.Dzen service.

An important direction of development is the promotion of Tranio in foreign languages. Comments of our experts this year were published by leading English-language business publications: Financial Times and Forbes. Tranio’s study of Russian-speaking investors in Germany was published by the German version of Business Insider and Die Welt. Our material on the main trends in the international market can be downloaded on the largest real estate portal in English, Global Property Guide. We appear in the Chinese media, the Ministry of Commerce of China publishes comments Georgy Kachmazov about buying property in Athens. The crowd marketing department that promotes Tranio online now speaks 7 languages: Russian, English, Chinese, and Turkish, French, Italian, and Arabic.

In 2018, we took part in EXPO REAL in Munich, Prodexpo and MR & H in Athens and MIPIM in Cannes. In late December, Tranio organized a joint seminar with Ernst & Young, dedicated to investing in development projects in Germany.

Tranio website is now available in 8 languages.
The number of visitors to the Russian and English versions of the Tranio site has grown by a quarter: today we register 9–11 thousand visits per day. The number of foreign applications for the purchase of real estate increased from 7 thousand in 2017 to 9 thousand in 2018. We launched the Turkish, Greek and Chinese version of the site this year – now the Tranio portal is available in 8 languages.

According to Georgy Kachmazov, the launch of Tranio.cn is associated with the growing interest of Chinese in overseas real estate: “We believe that next year the number of transactions that we will conclude with Chinese buyers will increase fivefold, including thanks to the Chinese version of the site.”
