Located in Frankfurt's Bockenheimer district, the properties offer 30,000 m2 of office space, 2,500 m2 of residential space, and 2,500 m2 of commercial and storage space, as well as a 350-space underground parking garage.
The buildings are 98% occupied with an average lease of 11 years. DWP Bank and government-owned KFW are the two main tenants.
'This sale will allow our investment team to re-deploy the equity that was invested in the asset into new
transactions,' said Ric Lewis, CEO of Tristan.
Amir Ramot, head of real estate at Aurec Capital, added: 'This purchase is part of our strategy to increase Aurec's portfolio in Germany and in Western Europe. We are actively looking for new investment opportunities in the German market.'
