CONVERT BUILDINGS AND MAKE THEM BANKABLE.

Office to residential, retail to mixed use, warehouse to campus. CNTXT8 turns existing buildings into financeable projects.

View Process

Your benefits

What's in it for you

From vacancy to business case

CNTXT8 shows which usage scenarios are economically viable. A vacant building becomes a concrete project with solid numbers.

Secure financing

Banks and investors immediately understand what you are planning. Our reports deliver exactly the evidence a credit committee needs for its decision.

Weeks instead of months

What usually takes months and involves multiple experts, CNTXT8 achieves in hours to weeks. Software driven, structured, and without unnecessary loops.

For whom

Two perspectives. One goal.

Owners

You own a building that is no longer used as originally intended. Office space is vacant, operating costs are rising, the market has changed.

Typical triggers

Office space is vacant or sublet below market rate
Renovation obligations due to new regulations (ESG, GEG)
Operating costs rising, rental income declining
The usage concept no longer fits the location
Financing expires and refinancing is uncertain

Investors

You see potential in an existing building and need solid numbers before you invest.

Typical triggers

Due diligence reveals open questions in the business case
An existing property with conversion potential is identified
The credit committee demands validated assumptions
ESG compliance must be demonstrated
The investment thesis needs reliable data

The problem

Why conversion projects fail

Regulation is getting more complex

ESG, taxonomy, energy codes. Requirements keep changing. Without evidence, there is no financing.

Decision foundations are missing

Banks need verifiable data. Without solid numbers, there is no credit decision.

Usage scenarios are unclear

What becomes of the empty office building? Residential, commercial, a mix? Without defined scenarios, the bank stalls.

Technical risks are hard to assess

Building substance, HVAC, fire safety, structural integrity. Every existing building is different. That makes assessment complex.

CONSEQUENCES. Banks receive documentation too late or in a format they cannot work with. Projects get stuck in the preliminary phase for years. Owners wait, banks stall, buildings sit empty. It does not have to be this way.

The path

Three steps to bank financing

Start small and deepen step by step. Each phase delivers a concrete result.

~1 Hour

Ideation

Quick initial assessment of your building

What usage potential does the building have?
Which scenarios are realistic?
What cost range are we looking at?

Project hypothesis

~2 Days

Assessment

In depth analysis with concrete numbers

Usage scenarios in detail
Regulatory review (ESG, taxonomy)
Costs, opportunities, and risks
Mixed use and conversion concepts
Gap analysis and evidence review

Business Case + Regulatory check

8 to 16 Weeks

CORE

Complete bankable business case

Feasibility study: Is the conversion technically and economically viable?
Financing structure and usage scenarios
Decision basis for owners and banks
Taxonomy compliant and ESG/CSRD compliant
Fully auditable documentation

Bankability Pass + Feasibility study

The tool

Software that carries the process

Behind every phase stands CNTXT8 as software. You enter building data in a guided wizard. CNTXT8 enriches this data from phase to phase, checks it against regulatory requirements, and builds a bankable report step by step. The analysis combines strategy, innovation, and financing into a holistic result.

Step 1

Capture data centrally

A wizard guides you through capturing all building data. What you enter in the Ideation phase is also available in the Assessment and CORE. Nothing gets lost.

Step 2

Analyze automatically

CNTXT8 checks your data against ESG, taxonomy, and building regulations. It calculates usage scenarios, evaluates risks, and develops innovative conversion concepts.

Step 3

Generate bankable report

At the end of each phase stands a concrete result as PDF. From the project hypothesis through the business case to the complete Bankability Pass.

CNTXT8 does not replace BIM. It complements BIM with strategic and financial analysis. Where BIM maps the design, CNTXT8 maps the decision.
