IMMOFINANZ announces the sale of a smaller Austrian retail portfolio to an
Austrian real estate investor and, with this transaction, continues its
strategic withdrawal from properties that are not part of the core
business. The portfolio covers 88 properties with approx. 108,000 sqm of
rentable space in eight Austrian provinces. The parties to the transaction
have agreed not to disclose any information on the purchase price. The
closing will take place in several steps through the end of 2017.
"These sold properties are part of a complex specialised portfolio that is
tailored to the needs of a single major tenant. This sale represents a
further step in our portfolio optimisation, which calls for a concentration
on our STOP SHOP retail parks and our VIVO! shopping centers in the retail
sector. Both brands have a high degree of standardisation which allows for
fast and cost-efficient growth", indicated Oliver Schumy, CEO of
IMMOFINANZ.
The reduction in rental income resulting from this sale will be almost
entirely offset by the recently announced acquisition of eight STOP SHOPs
in Hungary and Slovakia.
