Healthcare real estate investor Aedifica has invested approximately €25 million in six care homes in the Netherlands, acquiring the remaining 50% stake of its joint venture with Korian, making Aedifica full owner of the properties.

The portfolio comprises six purpose-built care residences in various municipalities, specifically tailored for elderly people requiring continuous care, which together accommodate 235 residents. All six buildings are new, with most being completed in 2022 and 2023.

Ther homes are operated by Korian Netherlands under the Stepping Stones, Het Gouden Hart and Hestia’ brands.

Aedifica’s chief executive Stefaan Gielens said: “Aedifica continues to underpin the quality of its Dutch real estate portfolio by investing approximately €25 million in a portfolio operated by Korian Netherlands. While/we initially had a 50% stake in this portfolio, we now become full owner. The portfolio includes six well-run purpose-built care residences that were recently completed. Moreover, the buildings have excellent energy ratings ranging from A to A++++, contributing to the continued improvement of the sustainability of Aedifica’s real estate portfolio.”
