Silberlake sells residential portfolio in North Rhine-Westphalia with Heuking

With a team led by Dr. Peter Vocke, Heuking Kühn Lüer Wojtek advised Silberlake Real Estate Group on the sale of a residential portfolio across six sites in North Rhine-Westphalia. The portfolio was acquired by a consortium consisting of a fund managed by London-based Ares Management Corporation and Forte Capital from Frankfurt am Main. The parties agreed not to disclose the purchase price.

The portfolio comprises a total leasable area in excess of 40,000 square meters, with an average apartment size of more than 70 square meters and an occupancy rate close to 100 percent. All sites are characterized by continuously high demand for apartments. The properties are all in sought-after locations with very good public infrastructure.

It manages over 10,000 residential units in its own portfolio and third-party portfolios.
