The Czech investor CPI Property Group has completed the acquisition of the Equator IV office building in Warsaw from Karimpol Polska. JLL advised the buyer in this transaction.
It is an excellent year for the office market in Poland, and we expect 2019 to close with an all-time high office investment transaction total of over EUR 3.5 billion. The acquisition of the Equator IV building illustrates the attractiveness and strength of the office sector in the country's capital. Its potential, however, can be seen not only by the strong activity from investors, but also by the fact that a number of them are consistently expanding their portfolios with Polish assets. A good example of this is the Czech CPI Property Group fund, which sees Poland as strategically important for its expansion plans.
