One Step Further.

The basic idea behind Residence Concept Real Estate Development is to create and fashion high-quality residential accommodation. For us this means meeting the highest requirements in all the relevant criteria such as location, build quality and sustainable technology. We achieve this goal by carefully selecting the architect's and engineer's offices and then working intensively with them from the very first idea. This ensures that our many years of experience in every stage of development - from conception through execution planning down to realisation - leave their mark on our projects. Quality assurance during the realisation phase is the final important step in ensuring that our clients get exactly what they were promised at the outset. As well as many years of experience in the international real estate market, we pride ourselves in the traditional values such as reliability, trust and responsibility.

Our services at a glance:
  • Site acquisition
    Any successful project development stands and falls by its location. Hand in hand with today's modern urban development we have made it our job to seek out the best locations, recognise potential and offer our clients an accommodation and investment opportunity of enduring value.
  • Planning coordination
    Our carefully considered choice of architectural and planning partners already ensures the highest levels of quality in conception from the outset of each project. Our experience and know-how in apartment construction enables us to coordinate to perfection all those involved in the project. The result is the ultimate in home comfort for our clients.
  • Project management
    We design buildings for their entire life cycle and therefore subject our planning to the most rigorous standards. Our on-site project management ensures that all project work stages are completed to the same consistently high standards of quality and adherence to deadlines.
  • Exclusive sales
    Our projects are underpinned by ideas, emotions and concepts. It is precisely these notions that we wish to convey through our comprehensive and precise development. For this reason, sales are handled exclusively by our staff.
  • Client support
    Apartments are unique - they are as varied and diverse as the people who live in them. For this reason, we always give priority to our clients and their wishes. With our multilingual team (speaking Luxembourgish, German, English and French) we are able to offer personalised customer support throughout the duration of the project ensuring your residential dreams come true.
  • After-sales support
    When we hand over the apartment keys we open the door to a whole new living experience. It is also important for us to stay in touch with our clients after the actual end of the project.

Residence Concept S.A. Real Estate Development

Residence Concept S.A. Real Estate Development was founded in June 2015 by Daniel Debras.

He was born in 1962 and is a Luxembourg national.

Daniel Debras is a qualified civil engineer, having studied at the Institut Supérieur de Technologie (I.S.T.) in Luxembourg and at RWTH Aachen University in Germany, and is a Member of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (MRICS).

Before setting up his company, Daniel Debras worked from 1989 for HOCHTIEF and then for formart.

From the end of 2000 until September 2014 he was CEO and a member of the administrative board of Hochtief Luxembourg S.A. (HT-Lux S.A.),
a 100% subsidiary of HOCHTIEF AG.

In October 2014 Hochtief Luxembourg S.A. was renamed formart Luxembourg S.A. By the end of June 2015 Daniel Debras was performing the same brief at formart Luxembourg S.A., a 100% subsidiary of formart GmbH & Co. KG.

formart GmbH & Co. KG has annual sales of approximately 1000 apartments/sales revenue of € 300 million and is therefore one of the largest residential construction developers in Germany.

Under his direction well-known projects were realised for public and private clients in Luxembourg. As well as continuing the property development of office real estate, from 2003 Daniel Debras introduced and consistently developed projects in the residential construction sector.

Under his influence Hochtief Luxembourg S.A. gradually transformed from a general contractor into a leading property developer focussing on apartment construction. In all, during this period around 350 apartments were completed and the company successfully established itself in the Luxembourg market as a specialised provider of high-quality residential units.

Daniel Debras has been able to recruit several long standing employees from formart Luxembourg S.A. for his new team. This means Residence Concept S.A. can tap into over 120 years of professional experience and expertise in property development.
