'This sale marks a further step in the realisation of our strategy to either sell minority holdings or to develop these investments into majority interests,' said Eduard Zehetner, Chief Executive Officer of Immofinanz.
The purchase price is also substantially higher than the carrying amount and the acquisition cost, he added.
Immofinanz bought the interest back in 2005. SelfStorage-Dein Lager focused on the development of a portfolio of self-storage facilities in Vienna and other Austrian cities.
