New investment in the senior housing segment: "Helianthus" rest home in Melle

Aedifica is pleased to announce that it gained control on 17 April 2013 of the "Helianthus" rest home site in Melle, in East Flanders1 .

"Helianthus" rest home2 is located in a private park of 1 ha, in a residential area in front of the Paters Jozefieten College. The site comprises a former mansion, a rest home with 42 beds and a building with 5 assisted-living apartments. These 47 units are operated via the not-for-profit organisation Helianthus by the group Senior Living Group (a major player in the Belgian senior care market) on the basis of triple net long leases of 27 years. The initial triple net yield amounts to approx. 6 %. The contractual value of the rest home amounts to €3.8 million3 .

An extension project of approx. 20 assisted-living apartments is currently under consideration in order to raise the total capacity of the site to approx. 67 units. The investment budget for the extension is estimated at approx. €3.4 million.

This is Aedifica's fourth investment after the capital increase of €100 million4 which was successfully completed on 7 December 2012 and which was the largest public capital increase that took place in Belgium in 2012. As reminder, the first three investments were the "Residentie Sporenpark" rest home project in Beringen5 , the "Résidence Les Cheveux d'Argent" rest home in Sart-lez-Spa6 and the " 't Hoge " rest home in Kortrijk7 . Other investments in the senior housing segment are currently under consideration.
