Aedifica is pleased to announce that it gained control on 26 March 2012 of the public limited liability company "Terinvest", owner of the " 't Hoge " rest home in Kortijk, in West Flanders.
The company is owner of the " 't Hoge " rest home and a plot of land next to it1 . The rest home currently comprises 62 beds and is operated by the group Senior Living Group (a major player in the Belgian senior care market), on the basis of a triple net long lease of 27 years. The initial triple net yield amounts to approx. 6 %. The contractual value of the rest home used in the acquisition price computation of the shares amounts to €3.3 million2 .
The " 't Hoge " rest home is well located in a residential area, next to de AZ Groeninge hospital, the Kennedylaan and the KULAK university campus. The plot of land next to the rest home will permit to realise an extension project in order to raise the total capacity of the site to 82 units (65 beds en 17 assisted-living apartments). The development permit has already been obtained. Moreover, the current building will be renovated. An investment budget of approx. €5 million is estimated for the extension and the renovation.
This is Aedifica's third investment after the capital increase of €100 million3 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 two investments were the "Residentie Sporenpark" rest home project in Beringen4 en the "Résidence Les Cheveux d'Argent" rest home in Sart-lez-Spa5 . Other investments in the senior housing segment are currently under consideration.
