Catella Real Estate AG acquires parking garage at Hamburg Airport for the special AIF "Catella Parken Europa" with Orange Investment Managers

Built with a main structure of steel and concrete elements, the "Weg beim Jäger" parking facility has a total of 1,178 parking spaces and an integrated waiting hall for users of the airport shuttle service.

The facility, which was built in 2012, is conveniently located at the intersection of the streets "Weg beim Jäger" and "Obenhauptstraße" in Hamburg-Fuhlsbüttel. The main terminal of Hamburg Airport is only 1.2 kilometers away from the parking facility "Weg beim Jäger" and can be reached by car or airport shuttle service, which is directly connected to the parking facility, in about 5 minutes driving time. Numerous offices and logistics companies as well as hotels are located in the adjacent commercial area. There are 5 hotels within 300 meters of the parking garage alone, including a Motel One, Ibis and Leonardo Inn Hotel.

The parking facility is leased to Q-Park until mid-2037, supplemented by an extension option of 3 times 5 years. Q-Park currently operates over 800,000 parking spaces at around 5,800 locations in 10 European countries, making it the second largest private provider of parking spaces in Europe.

The seller of the property is "Parken & Immobilien Invest GmbH" Hamburg, which is 100% owned by the Adler Group.

Catella Real Estate AG and Orange Investment Managers were advised on the acquisition by McDermott Will & Emery (legal due diligence), Reius Rechtsanwälte Partnerschaft (regulatory due diligence), WTS Tax (tax due diligence), and PVM (technical due diligence).

"After acquiring two parking garages in Paris and a parking garage in Milan in the second half of 2022, we are now expanding and diversifying the "Catella Parken Europa" portfolio even further with the current purchase of the parking garage at Hamburg Airport," says Axel Bertram, Portfolio Management Catella Parken Europa, about the current acquisition in Germany.

"The location directly at Hamburg Airport is ideal. In addition to air passengers, who can reach the airport in no time at all via the airport shuttle service, the parking garage is also heavily frequented by visitors and employees of the adjacent industrial area.
Frenky Prins, Investment Manager at Orange Investment Managers says "We are very pleased to be able to expand our investments in Germany in these challenging times. We expect to further diversify the "Catella Parken Europa" portfolio with very attractive parking lot investments in the coming period."

"We have already been working successfully with Q-Park, an established parking garage operator throughout Europe, in other properties for quite some time. With this renowned tenant, we are securing a stable cash flow for investors who want to make an "infrastructure-related" investment with a balanced risk-return profile in the current economic situation.”
