publity acquires 'UNION CENTER' office complex in Saarbrücken
|
This city-centre office property comprises eight interlinked buildings which join together to form a prestigious complex. In addition the property is characterised by its state-of-the-art architecture as well as its size, flexibility and presence. The office space allows the tenants to use the building flexibly with individual structures.
The property was modernized in 2004 and offers rental space of more than approx. 47,000 m2 as well as more than 600 parking spaces. The primary tenants are Deutsche Postbank AG, the German Federal Network Agency (Bundesnetzagentur), Prego Services GmbH and the Saarland Ministry of Finance and Europe. These tenants all have long-term leases.
The "UNION CENTER" is in direct proximity to Saarbrücken's city centre and is located on a direct connection to the university. The city centre and public transport can be reached by foot. Saarbrücken is located on the A6 motorway and is very close to the border between Germany and France.
"The property is one of the most well-known buildings in Saarbrücken. It is so attractive thanks to its long-term tenants with their excellent credit ratings, its central location and the excellent infrastructure. Future tenants will also be able to benefit from this," commented Thomas Olek, publity AG's CEO.
The law firm CMS Hasche Sigle, with a team headed by its Lead Partner Frank Schneider, is responsible for end-to-end legal consulting for the transaction, including project management and legal due diligence. Albrings + müller ag was responsible for technical project organisation and preparing technical due diligence. Waterway Investments GmbH acted as an exclusive agent on behalf of the seller.
