I'm Charles Kingston, an Irishman living in Berlin. To stay sane, I like cooking, reading, listening to music, and messing about on the water. I've lived in Germany for more than twenty years, after an earlier career which involved a lot of travelling and moving around the world, before starting my newsletter REFIRE just as Germany's institutional real estate market was opening up to international investors.REFIRE published its first issue in January 2006, and since then we have focused exclusively on reporting, in English language, on the German real estate market from the perspective of the institutional investor.In the last fifteen years, REFIRE has broken numerous stories about deals in the German market, reported from leading companies about their financing strategies, and provided countless international investors with concrete, relevant information about the German market to guide them in their German inward investment strategy.At the same time we provide German market players, asset managers, financiers, corporate lawyers and a host of real estate service providers with an audience of international real estate investors keen to ensure that they work in Germany with the best, most reliable and most professional German partners.Over the last fiftenn years REFIRE has built up an unrivalled network of personal and professional relationships with German and international real estate professionals, and we view it as an integral part of our burgeoning business to take a 'hands-on' approach to introducing business partners to each other. Furthering transparency in, and accessibility to, the German real estate market is our primary goal - let us know how we can help you to boost your business in Germany, continental Europe's largest real estate market.REFIRE Specialities: Globally-connected publisher and real estate analyst, proprietary financial trading, German business advisory services.
