Andrzej Oślizło, CEO of Develia talked to Property Forum about the recent acquisition of the Polish portfolio of the French development group Nexity, the current situation in the residential market and plans for investments in the PRS segment.

Develia has signed a preliminary agreement to acquire 100% of shares in Polish subsidiaries of Nexity, a French real estate development company. The price set in the preliminary agreement amounts to €100 million (approx. PLN 453 million). Develia will increase the number of units under construction by approx. 1,400 and will expand the land bank by approx. 2,200 units in Warsaw, Kraków and Poznań.

Nexity has announced that sales of apartments in its latest investment in Warsaw - La Praga in Radzymińska St. - has come to an end. The transaction has been sealed by a contract made with a Dutch investment fund Van der Vorm Vastgoed, which acquired all available apartments (more than 80% of apartments in the real estate property). The fund declares that they will be available for long-term rental.
