Bonava is selling and starting production of a project comprising 99 rental state subsidised apartments in Turku, Finland, to the property company TA-Asumisoikeus Oy. The purchase consideration amounts to approximately EUR 20 M and the project will generate a positive cash flow from the very start. Meanwhile, Bonava is starting production of an additional 150 housing units in the Baltics and Sweden. The starts will be reported as production started units in the fourth quarter 2024.
– Market conditions in Finland remain challenging, which is why we are especially pleased to present this investor transaction. The new neighbourhood will be constructed in one of Finland’s largest residential development districts, Kirstinpuisto, Turku, where we have previously built several projects and are very familiar with local conditions, says Peter Wallin, President and CEO, Bonava.
TA-Asumisoikeus Oy is part of the TA-Yhtymä Group which is a non-profit group appointed by the Housing Finance and Development Centre of Finland, ARA. The parties have agreed on a rolling payment plan, which means that the project is financed from the start. The housing units are expected to be finalised during the first quarter 2026.
The growing residential area is one of Finland’s largest residential development districts, located within walking distance of the city centre of Turku. In total Bonava plans to construct 1,400 housing units in Kirstinpuisto and this marks the beginning of the construction of Bonava’s eighth and ninth multi-family housing blocks in the area. The design of the area emphasises sustainable development solutions, high-quality public areas, and green spaces, with a particular attention to sustainable groundwater management.
