HAMBORNER REIT AG acquires office and commercial building in Bamberg

Duisburg, 2 October 2018 - HAMBORNER REIT AG has yesterday signed the purchase agreement for a property in Bamberg. The property being acquired is a modern office and commercial building from 2013, located approximately 2.5 kilometres from the centre of Bamberg in the Ost district. Bamberg-Ost is characterised not just by its central location, but also its optimal traffic infrastructure and high population density.

The main tenant of the roughly 6,100 m² property is the food retailer EDEKA, which has a long-term lease. In addition to the retail space on the ground floor, the property has four upper floors featuring multiple contemporary office units. The weighted remaining term of the leases is around 8.5 years. The purchase price of the property is EUR15.0 million. With annual rental income of around EUR0.83 million, the gross initial yield is 5.5%.

The property is being sold by a project development company. The transaction was brokered by Blank Real Estate (Frankfurt/Main). Payment of the purchase price and transfer of ownership of the property are provisionally scheduled for the middle of 2019.
