Following its 2016 debut to the Hungarian market M7 Real Estate’s Central European Fund (“M7 CEREF”) has further increased its presence in Budapest. In March 2017 the 62,000 sq m Aerozone logistics centre near Ferenc Liszt Airport was acquired by the fund which is managed by M7 Real Estate. In what is a developing partnership, M7 Real Estate has again appointed CBRE as the property manager and leasing agent for Aerozone as it did at the previous transactions in 2016.
M7 Real Estate, together with its clients has invested in the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Germany, France, Portugal and the Nordics and last year the business started to expand in Central Europe and purchased a number of commercial properties in Hungary and Croatia. After purchasing two shopping centres, the Atom Center in Paks and the Csillagvár in Budapest in addition to an industrial asset in Dunaharaszti, in March 2017, M7 CEREF bought the Aerozone logistics centre; its largest transaction in Hungary to date.
Aerozone offers M7 Real Estate the potential to deliver the desired returns the fund requires. With the support of CBRE, M7 will be able to capitalise on the underlying fundamentals of Aerozone. The Aerozone Park offers a unique opportunity for tenants with its proximity to Liszt Ferenc airport and access to M0 Motorway ring road. Extending to 62,000 sq metre of prime warehousing and Grade A office space; Aerozone presents itself as both a national logistics and city logistics hub.
