We advised HIH Invest, a German investment
management company, on its acquisition of ten
properties from GSW and Buwog, two subsidiaries of
European real estate group Vonovia.
The portfolio has an investment volume of
approximately €516 million and includes around
1,700 high-quality residential units and 8,700 square
meters of commercial space.
Lawyers in our Hamburg office led the transaction,
with support from our Berlin, Düsseldorf, Frankfurt,
and Munich offices and our antitrust, banking,
environment, infrastructure and projects, private
equity, and tax practices.
We advised Landsec, one of the largest real estate
companies in Europe, on the £400 million sale of

investment and management platform.
The disposal supports Landsec’s strategy to focus
its resources on areas where it has a genuine
competitive advantage.
