He has been investigated by Berlin prosecutors for allegedly failing to forward tenant payments for utilities, resulting in criminal complaints for fraud. Multiple reports indicate ongoing scrutiny of his real estate business practices.
His company Euroim-Immobilien reportedly accrued millions in unpaid water and electricity bills, affecting hundreds of tenants and prompting service disconnections and court actions.
Tenant groups and lawyers allege that he sold apartments at inflated prices with unclear or risky financing terms, particularly affecting low-income buyers.
Multiple German news outlets report on his legal and financial troubles, highlighting tenant complaints, unpaid utility bills, and allegations of fraudulent business practices.
Currently, no international sanctions, PEP status, or watchlist entries have been reported, but ongoing legal and reputational issues indicate elevated compliance monitoring may be warranted.
Given the history of legal investigations, unpaid debts, and negative media coverage, enhanced due diligence and careful monitoring of any business relationship are advised.

I personally find it hard to rely on someone whose business history includes unpaid utility bills and misused tenant funds. That kind of pattern tells me ethics may not have been a priority in his management style.
