CapMan Nordic Property Income Fund (non-UCITS) sells residential property in Copenhagen
CapMan Nordic Property Income Fund (“CMNPI”) (non-UCITS) sells Søllerødgade 15-19, a well-located modern residential property in Copenhagen.
The property, originally built in 2017, is located in a sought-after part of the Nørrebro area close to central Copenhagen. The fund acquired the property in 2020 and has now decided to exit the property to Danish real estate investor SF FORE.
“Søllerødgade 15-19 is a quality property in a fantastic location in Nørrebro. However, this type of low-yielding core residential property is not fully aligned with the long-term strategy of our Nordic Property Income Fund (CMNPI). Therefore, we decided to test the interest in the market, and are now pleased to exit the asset to SF FORE. Going forward, CMNPI plans to make new investments in stable income generating properties which demonstrate liquidity across cycles and allows for active development of the portfolio. Greater Copenhagen remains our key area for future investments in Denmark,” shares Hasse Wulff, Investment Director at CapMan Real Estate.
“The Søllerødgade exit allowed us to take benefit from the stabilising investment market and the continuously high demand for high quality residential properties. Actualising our returns here while exceeding the funds targets, allows us to continue with our stock picking approach and look for new higher yielding investments,” shares Oskari Isolauri, Junior Fund Director of CMNPI.
The property has received a DGNB-in-Use Gold certification during CapMan Real Estate’s ownership period.
