The portfolio comprises three very high-quality assets, all of which benefit from their location in popular office submarkets and their balanced tenant mix to produce secure and long-term rental income. The seller is a subsidiary of Orion European Real Estate Fund IV, C.V., which is sponsored by Orion Capital Managers: The purchase is for the recently launched fund “PATRIZIA Gewerbe-Immobilien Deutschland III”.
Part of the portfolio is the 26,200 sq m Hafen City Gate office building in Hamburg, right beside the newly built Elbphilharmonie, a “real trophy asset” according to Daniel Dreyer. The 28,790 sq m Westfalentower in Dortmund and an office building at the Carl-von-Noorden-Platz in Frankfurt am Main, with approximately 5,600 sq m, are also included in the portfolio.
All properties offer a combined total of 60,625 sq m and are almost fully let to a total of 36 tenants with an average lease term of seven years. High profile tenants include Commerzbank, McKinsey, Deutsche Telekom and Gruner + Jahr.
