Report this content

Listed Swedish property company Kungsleden AB (publ) is selling a retirement home in Germany for a total purchase price of approximately SEK 93 m, which is comparable to book value and corresponds to a property yield of about 7.9 per cent.

“The implementation of Kungsleden’s new business strategy doesn’t only mean us executing a large-scale purchase programme of properties in the industrial/warehouse and office segments in selected Swedish growth regions. Selling properties outside these core regions at the right time and at an acceptable price is also part of our strategic concentration. The sale of this retirement home in Germany is just such a transaction, which will help build the property po¬rtfolio we want for the long term,” commented Anders Kvist, Interim Chief Executive of Kungsleden.

Completion is scheduled for the third quarter of 2013.
