Futureal has sold its Sziget Center shopping mall in Hungary to OTP Property Investment Fund as part of the deal that also saw the purchase of the Skypark office building, according to a press statement sent to the Budapest Business Journal.<\/strong><\/p>\n

After a repositioning, the 23,600 sqm center located on the outskirts of Budapest has managed to attract high-profile tenants and tripled its lease income over the last two-and-a-half years, thus triggering interest from one of Hungary\u2019s biggest property investment funds, Futureal says<\/p>\n

The Sziget Center shopping mall is located in the heart of Csepel Island, on the outskirts of Budapest, next to the non-public T\u00f6k\u00f6l airport. Its customer base is the more than 90,000 residents of the nearby settlements: Szigethalom; Szigetszentmikl\u00f3s; Hal\u00e1sztelek; and T\u00f6k\u00f6l. <\/p>\n

The purchasing power of the area exceeds the Hungarian average and the domestic consumption of the residents are forecasted to rise in the coming years, according to Futureal. The accessibility of the area is excellent by car and public transport, and the suburban train line (H\u00c9V) is only a few minutes away, the real estate firm adds. Sziget Center is currently the largest retail center on Csepel Island, and the appearance of any competition is deemed highly unlikely in the coming years.<\/p>\n

Futureal purchased Sziget Center in 2014. In the last three years, the center has attracted several international tenants, increasing the leased area by more than 9,000 sqm. These newcomers include international clothing store operators C&A and H&M, the decor and furnishing chain Jysk; clothing and household goods network Pepco, household products and cosmetics distributor Euro Family and electronics retailer Euronics.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the past two and a half years, we have managed to perform a successful repositioning of Sziget Center by attracting the largest brands and thus tripling leasing income of the shopping mall,\u201d said G\u00e1bor Fut\u00f3, founder of Futureal Group. \u201cThe essence of this process was to strengthen the shopping center\u2019s convenience offering, while creating a strong fashion supply. Thanks to the great infrastructure and location, the center is expected to bolster its supply with further international retail chains and increase its popularity among the residents of the area, becoming a truly dominant local center,\u201d he added. <\/p>\n

\u201cThe OTP Property Investment Fund has been of the most popular product of its kind in the last few years,\u201d said Dr. Zsolt Barna, president and CEO of OTP Real Estate Investment Fund Management Ltd. \u201cHowever, we had to adapt to the changing trends on the real estate market. For this reason we have begun a long-term project of developing our investment portfolio. As part of this process we have been looking to purchase high-end logistic and retail properties with high yield potentials. We are confident that our latest investment, Sziget Center fits this bill perfectly. However, this purchase is not the last step in the process, we are still looking for projects in Budapest and the surrounding areas,\u201d Barna noted.<\/p>\n
