Revetas and Cerberus Announce Acquisition of Bucharest Office Complex
LONDON and NEW YORK, Nov. 6, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Revetas Capital Advisors LLP ("Revetas") and Cerberus Capital Management, L.P. and its affiliates ("Cerberus") today announced the acquisition of the Landmark, a newly built office complex in a prime location in Bucharest, Romania ("Project Marina"). The complex, with approximately 23,500 sqm of gross leasable area, is the only business park of its size in the heart of Bucharest offering institutional grade specifications and flexible floor plates. The leading office building is long-term leased to strong international institutional covenants and offers ancillary retail space.
Project Marina is the second property jointly acquired by Revetas and Cerberus in Romania and aligns with both firms' strategies to identify quality real estate properties and apply investment and operational expertise to generate superior risk-adjusted returns. In December 2017, Revetas and Cerberus jointly acquired Project Nemo, a leading hotel complex in Bucharest, which includes the Radisson Blu and Park Inn hotels, featuring a total of 697 guest rooms.
Eric Assimakopoulos, Managing Partner at Revetas, commented, "Project Marina is one of the most compelling office assets in Bucharest's Central Business District, offering a unique mix of competitive advantages. We are excited about this opportunity to expand our partnership with Cerberus and to continue creating value for our tenants and investors in one of the fastest growing countries in the Central and Eastern Europe region."
Lee Millstein, President of Cerberus Global Investments and Global Head of Real Estate for Cerberus, added, "We continue to see strong growth trends in Romania and are excited to have the opportunity to add another attractive property to our portfolio. We look forward to extending our partnership with Revetas and leveraging our collective operational and capital expertise to drive value for both our Project Marina and Project Nemo properties."
