April 2017 - Kinstellar is pleased to announce that we have once again assisted on major transactions in the real estate, private equity and finance sectors in Hungary and the Czech Republic.
Our teams in Budapest and Prague advised M7 Real Estate on its EUR 68.5 million senior debt facility from Starwood European Real Estate Finance. M7 recently closed its first Central European fund for third-party investors, known as M7 Central European Real Estate Fund I (M7 CEREF I), after collecting EUR 60 million of investor capital.
We also advised M7 on the acquisition of Aerozone Logistics Park in Budapest, a 64,600 sqm industrial asset, from CA Immo Group and Union Invest. The multi-tenanted logistics park is located close to Budapest's airport.
