The Habona Invest Group recently announced an acquisition for the closed-end public fund Habona Deutsche Nahversorgungsimmobilien Fonds 09. This involves the purchase of a local supply property in Sögel, Lower Saxony, which is long-term leased to Edeka. The transaction value of the property is in the mid-single-digit millions and contributes to the diversification of the fund's portfolio.
The acquired property comprises a rental area of approximately 2,800 square metres and is located on a plot of around 9,300 square metres, which was developed in 2020. A significant expansion took place in 2024 through the integration of a beverage market operated by Edeka. The remaining lease term with the main tenant is 16 years, which secures a predictable income situation for the investment company.
