The purchases were made for a special fund of the German institution. The fund is managed by German capital management company Institutional Investment Partner. Catella performs the portfolio management in the residential segment of the fund.

'With our Catella network, we have quickly invested an upper three-digit million figure in cities across Europe that are characterised by their positive demographic development,' says Xavier Jongen, head of Catella's initiative within residential property funds.

In Copenhagen, 41 completely renovated residential units located near the city centre were acquired for EUR 21.9 million. The apartments are fully let and have a rental area of 5,074 square metres of rental space.

In the German city of Cologne, 62 residential units (senior housing) with 2,670 square metres of lettable space were acquired for EUR 11 million in the district of Cologne Ehrenfeld.

In the university town of Ulm, a new development with 30 residential units and 2,818 square metres of lettable space was able to be acquired for a purchase price of EUR 12.6 million in the Dichterviertel. The development is close to the inner city and is to be completed in the second quarter of 2018.

'The portfolio in Copenhagen, Cologne and Ulm generates a stable cash flow, with full rental and low fluctuation, and complements the portfolio we are managing for the southern German institution,' says Michael Keune, Portfolio Manager at Catella.
