During the reporting period, the inspections did not reveal any violations of regulations and/or voluntary codes concerning health and safety aspects that were not immediately remedied. Vonovia has established standard processes for handling defects discovered as a result of inspections, which require prompt handling. These processes continued to function perfectly during the reporting period.
1)Excl. Deutsche Wohnen.
2)Inspections carried out up to Dec. 31; figures above 100% are the result of inspections carried out in the previous year.
3)The checks are conducted at regular intervals from the date of the first inspection; the annual certificates are therefore not distributed exactly equally (50%–50%). Forecast scope of inspections at the beginning of the year.
4)The low number of building inspections in 2022 is due to the COVID19 pandemic. The outstanding inspections will be completed by the second quarter of 2023 and inspections will once again be carried out according to plan. From Vonovia's perspective, there is no risk.
5)Includes open spaces with and without buildings.
