Housing association Servatius sells Dutch residential portfolio to international investor

5 January 2015


Housing association Servatius sold a residential portfolio of approximately 350 homes to international investor LaSalle Investment Management. It is LaSalle’s first residential acquisition on the Dutch market. Capital Value advised Servatius on the sale.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs has approved the transaction according the so-called MG 2013-2 circulaire (which came effective in October 2013). LaSalle has earlier this year executed its first commercial real estate transactions in the Netherlands. The Dutch investment environment for residential real estate has become recently more and more attractive.

David Ironside, international director at LaSalle Investment Management GmbH in Munich (Germany): "We are very happy with this first transaction on the Dutch residential market, in which we have been able to build up a position in short term. We are actively seeking further opportunities and look forward to playing a significant role as a long term investor in Dutch residential property."
