Eigennutzer oder Anleger: Generalsaniertes Laufhaus mit 13 Zimmer an der B70 nahe Voitsberg

The property to be sold is a generally renovated brothel with 13 rooms, located in an excellent high-traffic location directly on the B70 and in very good overall condition. The building was comprehensively renovated in 2020/2021 and presents itself today as a modern, technically well-equipped commercial and investment property.

The brothel itself is currently vacant, and is therefore suitable for both owner-occupiers who want to take over the operation themselves and for investors who want to re-let the property and exploit the existing demand potential. Notably, additional ongoing income is already generated today via two machines (cigarette and grocery vending machine) as well as a transmission mast from Magenta. These lease agreements remain in place and provide a base yield even before the brothel is back in operation or re-let.

The building extends over the basement, ground floor, 1st floor and attic and has a clearly structured, commercially usable layout. In the basement there are, besides various storage rooms, the heating and tank rooms as well as a spacious double garage. The basement was only partially adapted during the general renovation and therefore offers further development potential for additional storage space, staff areas or technical rooms.

The ground floor forms the central reception and access area of the brothel. Here there is a representative reception area, general toilet facilities, a storage room, a furnished communal kitchen or lounge, as well as an office. In addition, on the ground floor there are 3 rooms, each with a shower and toilet. From this level, one reaches the spacious terrace of around 61.28 m², which is suitable for a guest terrace or a resting area.

On the 1st floor there are additional 6 rooms available, which are also equipped with their own sanitary areas. Due to the modern execution and the practical layouts, the rooms offer an efficient use in the context of a brothel or similar commercial concepts. The attic houses the last 4 rooms, also with shower and toilet. The roof location creates a pleasant, sheltered atmosphere, which is especially appreciated by regular customers. In addition, there is a small balcony of about 3 m², which provides a street-side view.

Both on the street side and in the rear courtyard of the property there are adequate parking spaces available, ensuring convenient arrival for staff and customers. In the course of the general renovation 2020/2021 all pipes for heating, air conditioning, ventilation and sanitation (HKLS) as well as the electrical installations were renewed. Escape route lighting and a smoke and heat extraction system (RWA) were installed, which supports a high level of safety and compliance with the relevant regulations.

All rooms are equipped with new fire protection doors. Moreover, lines for air conditioning have already been pre-installed, allowing retrofit of air conditioning units with manageable effort. The entire building has video surveillance cameras as well as a WLAN router and a modern IT cabling (Cat 6).

In the reception area the installation of a coffee machine is prepared, including water connection and power supply. In the individual rooms there is a light signaling system that shows occupancy in the anteroom. In addition, there is an emergency call button at the beds, directly connected to the office on the ground floor, which provides an additional safety feature. The floors are mostly tiled and finished with high-quality plastic flooring. The bathrooms have been modernized and feature showers, toilets and sometimes windows. The windows are operable and double- or multi-glazed. Heating is provided by a central oil-fired heating system. Beyond the purely technical equipment, the rooms also look visually appealing: modern rooms, new bathrooms, attractive floors, and custom-made carpentry create a cohesive, attractive appearance and underscore the contemporary standard of the property.

The property is in sole ownership and is offered as a commercial or investment object. The purchase price is €499,900 plus 20% VAT, with the option of VAT pass-through without an effective payment flow.

The brothel itself is currently vacant, which gives a future operator or investor the opportunity to implement their own rental and operating concepts. The existing rental arrangements regarding the vending machines as well as the transmission mast (Magenta) remain in place and generate ongoing net income, the exact amount of which can be disclosed in a personal discussion. With full occupancy of the brothel, a return of around 10% can be achievable, depending on the concrete rental arrangement and utilization. Additional costs such as real estate transfer tax (3.5%), land registry entry fee (1.1%), contract creation costs (ca. 1% plus VAT and cash outlays) and the broker commission (3% of the purchase price plus 20% VAT) are to be borne by the buyer. Further details on economic and tax treatment, particularly for VAT-liable acquisition, should be agreed in individual cases with a tax advisor.

This property combines a top-frequency location on the B70 with a generally renovated, technically high-quality building and thus provides an excellent basis for a profitable commercial concept. The fact that the brothel is currently vacant opens up maximum flexibility for owner-occupiers as well as investors in terms of future use.

The existing rental income from machines and transmission mast reduces vacancy risk and creates a base yield, while the clearly structured, modern room layout enables a rapid resumption of brothel operations or — subject to regulatory approvals — the implementation of alternative commercial concepts (e.g., room rental, worker rooms, thematic short-term rental).

With its combination of good structural substance, current technology, safety facilities, high-frequency location and existing infrastructure connectivity, this property represents an attractive investment opportunity in the greater Graz - Voitsberg area.
