Cureus in Q1/2025 – around 600 places created for care and assisted living
- Q1/25: 594 units for care and assisted living, 6 residential units completed
- Alloheim gained as new operator partner
- Cureus leads the project developer market in the senior property segment
- Successful handover for sales by Carestone
- Targeted property acquisition for new projects continues
Hamburg, 7 April 2025. Cureus, an integrated property company that specialises in developing and actively managing its own care home portfolio, again completed new and urgently needed care capacities in Germany in the first quarter of 2025. From January to March 2025, a total of 594 care and assisted living units and six flats were completed. All locations are managed together with different operator partners.
Christian Möhrke, CEO of Cureus, is optimistic about the new year: ‘We got off to a good start in the first quarter, we can report around 600 completed care and assisted living units. In addition, we have gained two further experienced operator partners, Vitanas and most recently Alloheim, who are building on our system approach. The political developments in Germany for 2025 also give us hope for new opportunities to further develop the care infrastructure. Financial resources could soon be available for this, and then all that will be needed is less bureaucracy and more planning security under the newly created conditions. The new government can now prove itself and is urgently called upon to help ensure that projects can also be financed. In this way, all market participants can create a care offering that is more in line with future requirements.’
Alloheim gained as new operator partner
Cureus started a collaboration with Alloheim, the largest private care home operator in Germany according to pm rankings, at the beginning of 2025. The focus is on the development of new care locations. Cureus is acting as the investor and is responsible for the new construction, while Alloheim will take over the care operations as the leaseholder of the locations once construction is complete. Cureus and Alloheim are starting off at the Garrel site. Here, Cureus had already started construction work on a senior centre with 104 care places according to the KfW40 standard and with the aim of DGNB Silver certification in summer 2024, initially without an operator.

Successful handover for sales by Carestone
Carestone, market leader in the development and marketing of senior living and care properties, took over a location from the Cureus portfolio for individual sales to private investors in the first quarter of 2025. This is the senior residence in Marienheide, which was completed at the beginning of 2025 and has 80 single rooms for full inpatient care and short-term care as well as ten service flats for outpatient intensive care. The home is operated by the compassio Group.
Property acquisition and property sales are continued
Cureus continues to selectively sell sites from its portfolio to various market participants if opportunities arise in order to free up additional liquidity for the realisation of further projects.
In addition, the company continues to be active in acquiring land for new projects. The focus here is particularly on North Rhine-Westphalia; Hesse, Lower Saxony, Schleswig-Holstein and Berlin also remain interesting. The company is primarily looking for centrally located plots of land in residential or mixed-use areas of 3,000 square metres or more that are well developed in terms of infrastructure.

Planning and construction in accordance with the Cureus system approach
All Cureus new-build properties are designed and built in accordance with the Cureus standard for system care homes. This specifies uniform, high quality standards and is oriented, among other things, towards the requirements of care home operators, residents and caregivers. This systematic approach enables Cureus to optimise both structural processes and the properties themselves from the inside to the outside. This relates, for example, to the dimensions and arrangement of every room in order to maximise to space and walkways. Cureus care homes are also designed and equipped for maximum utility. Interior corridors benefit from as much daylight as possible, every room has floor-to-ceiling windows and attractive views of the surrounding area, while the modern bathrooms and window fronts always follow the same standardised system approach. The architecture and facade of each residence incorporate individual touches and are constructed to the highest quality standards, integrating seamlessly into their surroundings. The Cureus system approach also prioritises sustainability, both in terms of a care home’s long-term economic viability and its impact on the environment. All Cureus care homes are, for example, constructed in accordance with the ‘Effizienhaus 40 Standard’ of the KfW and target the DGNB silver certificate. Bulk procurement of floor coverings and elevator systems, for example, achieves significant cost synergies. Long-term maintenance contracts that cover several properties also reduce costs for care home operators. The constant review and optimisation of the Cureus system care home standard guarantees the construction of care homes that truly meet demand.
