Habona Invest

Offices in London, hotels on Sylt, and apartments in Boston – real estate funds readily appeal to a yearning for distant places and the investor’s imagination. Not the newly established Habona Invest GmbH. The Issuing House was founded in 2009 under the motto “sound investments at your fingertips”. Frankfurt is planning its first closed-end funds for the first quarter of 2010, to invest in German retail real estate such as discount shops, supermarket chains and smaller neighbourhood shopping centres. “Local food stores largely benefit from a demand independent of economic trends, because, whatever happens, people still have to eat“, Roland Reimuth Habona Invest’s managing partner explains. „Other than that, investors can see the properties and their tenants for themselves every time they do their weekly shopping”. The Re’public group accompanies Habona in its startup in the market and takes over all the steps necessary for placing funds: the brochure, all the advertising material, the public relations and the marketing consulting.
