Hamburg, 14. February 2014. ADLER Real Estate AG, Frankfurt/M., (ISIN DE0005008007) has acquired a share at a further portfolio consisting of approx. 2,400 apartments in Lower Saxony. After conclusion of the contract at the turn of the year, the involvement in a housing association in Helmstedt now became legally effective. The share was acquired from CORESTATE Capital AG. The apartments are located in Helmstedt, in the eastern part of the Brunswick and Wolfsburg area such as in the south of Helmstedt. The contracting parties have agreed not to disclose any information on the conditions of the acquisition.
Connected with the acquisition of the involvement in the housing association WBG GmbH in Helmstedt is the commitment to guarantee the employment of currently ten staff members such as to take over the company’s existing administrative board. ‘We take this obligation very seriously and evaluate the employment guarantee for the personnel as a benefit for us, as they have detailed knowledge of the portfolio’, comments Axel Harloff, CEO of ADLER Real Estate AG.

Projected investment volume amounts to the million range. Due to the economic success of the entire area, based on the achieved growth of Volkswagen Group, ADLER expects increasing demand for attractive and well-priced living spaces.
