Only a few months after Bau- und Liegenschaftsbetrieb NRW (BLB) moved out, the first significant letting success has been achieved in the Düsseldorf office property EDDI, Eduard-Schulte-Straße 1. A Düsseldorf-based healthcare provider has signed a long-term lease agreement for around 1,500 m² of office space and will move into the space before the end of this year.
aam2core Holding AG, which is responsible for the asset management of the property, supervised this letting.
“With the new tenant, we were able to gain a long-term user for the EDDI in a short time. The deal makes it clear that the mix of functional equipment, good building quality, attractive conditions and excellent accessibility makes the location convincing,” says Thilo Jung, Head of Asset Management at aam2core Holding AG.
“For the investors in our “Deutsche Kommunalimmobilien” fund, which we launched in 2015 on the service platform of Universal-Investment-Gesellschaft mbh, this is strong proof that the fund strategy also works in the event of a change of tenant,” adds Michael Ruhl, Managing Director of aam2core Service GmbH.
The EDDI office property is currently being modernised and offers a good building quality that meets the demands of modern users. Flexible space concepts, efficient building structures and sustainable technical equipment form the basis. This is complemented by green roofs, barrier-free access, active open, green and communal areas, a future-proof district heating supply and the desired DGNB building certification.
In addition to these qualities, the location is particularly impressive due to its excellent connection to the motorway network, which enables fast connections in all directions. This is supplemented by the connection to the public transport network, so that both the city centre and the surrounding area are easily accessible. In combination with an attractive rent level, the result is an overall package that is economically and functionally convincing.
“The long-term contract is a strong signal for the Düsseldorf office real estate market. We are pleased to have brokered the lease agreement and thus to have gained a renowned user for the EDDI. It shows that properties with good building quality, sustainable furnishings and a reliable price-performance ratio can be successfully placed even in a challenging market environment. We therefore expect continued good demand for the space still available in the EDDI,” says Robert Kleinhans, Director Office Leasing at Anteon Immobilien.
