Kinstellar has successfully advised its client, Ideal Projects (a joint venture between the Vetimex and Mirus groups) on the successful negotiation, signing, closing and refinancing of the Cluj-based Vivido, Advancity, and Cube office projects. This is the largest office acquisition outside Bucharest in Romania this year, with a total value exceeding €30 million.


The three projects exceed 18,000 sqm of GLA and represent the newest additions to Class A Cluj office stock. Work on this matter included all aspects of the transaction: due diligence, negotiating and signing all transaction documentation, title insurance, refinancing, and regulatory matters.

The transaction team was led by Associate Andreea Grigorie and Managing Partner, Victor Constantinescu and with support from Associates Bianca Marin and Mădălina Perțe.
