*PRESS RELEASE*
*ACCENTRO Acquires Property Manager of 18,500 Flats*
*Berlin, 29 December 2020* - ACCENTRO Real Estate AG is acquiring DIM
Holding AG ("Deutsche Immobilien Management"). The purchase agreement was
signed today. DIM is one of the leading real estate managers in Germany with
about 130 employees at seven locations, managing residential and commercial
real estate portfolios in Germany. The company currently has approx. 2.8
billion euros in assets under management with a total area of approx. 1.4
million square metres and manages some 18,500 residential units.
Alongside its current core business of privatisation, ACCENTRO has thus
reached a further milestone, advancing its development into a residential
investor and portfolio holder. Having only recently more than doubled its
stock of residential properties to 5,200 residential units through the
purchase of some 2,800 residential units, ACCENTRO is now planning the
further expansion of its activities not only in Berlin and eastern Germany,
but also in North Rhine-Westphalia, in the Rhine-Main region and in Bavaria,
where ACCENTRO already owns properties.
"We intend to gradually increase the number of properties owned by ACCENTRO
and thus become a long-term lessor irrespective of our privatisation
portfolio. With this in mind, it makes sense to have a property manager on
hand who acts as on-site caretaker and trouble-shooter with knowledge of the
local market, close contact to tenants and in-depth technical knowledge of
the managed real estate," explains Lars Schriewer, the CEO of ACCENTRO Real
Estate AG. "In DIM, we have found an established company with enormous
competence, which forms the basis for the retention and appreciation of the
value of the properties in our portfolio," adds Schriewer.
