The RealStep management is outstanding for its ability to conceive and develop efficient,
creative and comfortable spaces, managing them from the beginning to the end.
The company mainly operates on disused industrial areas and on complex buildings
that require restructuring or revamping.
We will open your space and your mind.
We often operate on former industrial areas with a high difficulty coefficient. This has made us experts at designing and developing efficient spaces in a creative and cutting edge way with one overriding brief: the comfort of our future
We carry on managing our projects long after many other developers have packed up and left. Once the lease has been signed we continue to ensure that tenants will enjoy maximum benefit and enjoyment from their property. Whenever a challenge is encountered we are on hand to act promptly and effectively. Our long-term relationships are built on trust, day by day.
We believe the ultimate square metre efficiency can only be achieved through meticulous study. Whether we maximise green areas, maintain double height ceilings or craft technically superior spaces – we will make the most of every part of every development.
We invest a significant portion of our wealth in the projects we advise on
What is better than a project that answers every need for its owners or tenants? A property that can adjust almost effortlessly when the time comes for it to change hands or lease and purpose.
