Committees of ZIA

The task of the Executive Board is the management of the association. The board is a volunteer and has the opportunity to use a management. The board members are also members of the board.

The presidium controls the content of the ZIA and initiates committees and working groups on the individual topics.

The substantive work of the ZIA takes place in committees, which are staffed by a total of more than 500 volunteer representatives of the ZIA members. The resolutions and recommendations of the committees form the basis of the association's work.

More than 30 employees work in the headquarter of the ZIA and prepare the committee work and the resolution.

The ZIA Municipal Council accompanies and develops guidelines and standards for cooperation between municipalities and the real estate industry. Among other things, the committee discusses political and legislative initiatives as well as quality components and gives the ZIA recommendations for the association's work.

The Scientific Advisory Board advises the Executive Board and the Management of the ZIA in full independence and on an honorary basis on all issues and challenges relating to the real estate industry.

The ZIA Sustainability Council is responsible for the strategic management of the ZIA sustainability policy. He works on the subject of sustainability in its entire breadth and diversity, theoretically founded from the point of view of practice.

Since the fall of 2002, the "Immobilienweisen Expert Panel" has been providing more transparency in the real estate markets through its Spring Real Estate Industry Report. With the data for the first time on gross production value, employees and real estate stock, the real estate industry as one of the most important economic sectors in Germany was to be better anchored in public perception.

Under the direction of the Innovation Officer, the Innovation Think Tank supports the ZIA in promoting the innovation culture in the industry and initiating innovative cooperation.

The energy transition is one of the core objectives of the real estate industry, but this can only succeed with economically sensible and technology-open measures. For this reason, the ZIA, with its newly established Task Force Energy, is developing proposals for the real estate industry to achieve climate policy goals.
