A 20-year lease agreement has been signed with the Fattal Group. According to the asset reporting published today, good progress has been made on the other projects as well. The construction work for "yoo berlin", the twin project to "Am Zirkus 1", is far enough along that the first condominiums will soon be handed over to their buyers. Around 92 percent of the 95 apartments have already been sold including authentication by a notary public or reserved. The large "Harvestehuder-weg 36" project in Hamburg is also close to being completed. According to the appraisal of the independent property experts of Wüest & Partner AG, the market value of the entire property portfolio rose to CHF 595.9 million as at the end of June 2014, which is an increase of 10.4 percent compared with the end of 2013.
