Renovating without a roadmap
costs more than necessary.
The individual renovation roadmap () is not just a funding document. It is the prioritisation, timing and funding architecture instrument that determines whether your renovation pays off economically, or whether measures are implemented in isolation, with suboptimal funding logic and in the wrong sequence. The real complexity lies not in the individual measure, but in the interconnection: which measure secures funding access for the next? Which sequence maximises the overall leverage? And where does the market systematically think too small?

This service is designed for:
- Owners of single/multi-family homes facing renovation decisions
- Landlords with renovation-pending stock and limited capex
- Companies before major renovation measures with funding potential
- Property managers with heterogeneous portfolio stock
- Buyers before property acquisition with renovation needs
Sound familiar?
„Individual measures planned but no overall strategy, and thus no overview of which sequence maximises funding access and profitability."
„Funding not optimally utilised because the 5% bonus on individual measures is systematically forfeited - for a typical renovation package, this can amount to five-figure sums."
„Energy consultant recommends measures, but without prioritisation by funding logic, capex availability and connectivity. Result: measures that are technically correct but economically mis-sequenced."
„Heating replacement before envelope renovation planned - without knowing that the sequence can restrict funding access for the envelope."

With a few inputs in the BEG check, find out indicatively which funding programmes apply to your renovation, and whether an iSFP provides the decisive leverage.

Planning horizon
What happens without an iSFP?
- 5% funding bonus per individual measure is systematically forfeited - for 5 measures at €30,000 each, that's up to €7,500 in lost funding.
- Wrong sequence can block funding access to subsequent measures (e.g. heating replacement before envelope renovation reduces efficiency gains and can restrict eligibility).
- Without an overall concept, no connectivity to ESG reporting, financing or future transactions - the becomes an isolated obligation instead of a strategic document.
- Measures are implemented in isolation - economically suboptimal and often misaligned. Common consequence: double investments or costly corrections.
- § 35c EStG (tax incentive) and grants cannot be combined - without pre-assessment, the worse path is often chosen.
- Later corrections typically cost significantly more than clean initial planning, and funding access is often already exhausted.
What good advisory concretely changes here.
- Sequence optimisation: arrange measures so each secures funding access for the next, and lock-in effects are avoided.
- Funding architecture: integrate bonus with EM, KfW financing and potentially § 35c EStG. Critical: which path is economically better in the specific case - grant or tax deduction?
- Timing planning: align application logic and measure timing with available funding pools. Funding programmes have budget limits and can change mid-year.
- prioritisation: direct limited investment budgets to measures with the highest economic leverage - not to the technically most obvious ones.
- Overall economics: consider not just the funding bonus, but energy cost reduction, value stability and financing improvement as a total equation.
- Connectivity: use as data foundation for ESG reporting, pathway and lending value assessment - a good iSFP feeds into three to five downstream processes.

A good renovation roadmap saves more than just the 5% bonus. It determines whether sequence, timing and funding logic of your renovation add up economically.
