Becken, a specialist in project development, revitalization, asset and investment management for commercial and residential properties, has achieved another letting success for its new "Fabrik Office" office building in Munich. A long-term ten-year lease has been signed with global image processing specialist FRAMOS GmbH for the 726 square meters on the sixth floor. Real estate agency IGENUS brokered the lease. The "Fabrik Office", which was completed in spring, was built as part of the equal joint venture with HanseMerkur Grundvermögen (HMG).

As part of an online press conference on the office real estate market, speakers Tobias Dichtl, Co-Head of Market Intelligence & Foresight at Colliers, Felix Meyen, Managing Director of HIH Invest, and Jens Hogekamp, Managing Director of Becken Development GmbH, gave an outlook on further developments in the second half of 2024 and looked back on the first half of the year.

Becken, a specialist in project development, revitalization, asset and investment management of commercial and residential properties, and HanseMerkur Grundvermögen have completed the new "Fabrik Office" project in Munich on schedule. The property at Steinerstrasse 11, on the corner of Tölzer Strasse 1, was built as part of an equal joint venture between Becken and HanseMerkur Grundvermögen (HMG). In March, around 55 percent of the rental space was handed over to the tenants Nano Temper and Ramboll.

The Hamburg real estate market will remain under pressure in 2024, but is still in robust shape. On a ten-year average, total transaction activity in the first quarter of 2024 is down by around 58%. Industrial and logistics properties dominate the transaction market and are currently the strongest asset class. By contrast, there were no major lettings on the office market in the first quarter. Investors and tenants are generally looking for smaller office spaces - while rents are rising at the same time. In the current market environment, banks are considerably more reluctant to provide real estate financing and are demanding more collateral and ESG compliance for the properties to be financed.

Dieter Becken, Managing Partner of Becken Holding GmbH, comments: "The complete acquisition of INDUSTRIA completes our company's growth trajectory and was the next logical step after the acquisition of the majority stake in October 2021."

Rising interest rates and the sharp decline in investor interest as well as the ongoing uncertainty surrounding the trend towards remote working mean that fewer offices will be built in future and that the development sector as a whole is in a difficult economic situation. This was confirmed by Reinhold Knodel, CEO of Pandion AG; Roland Köppe, authorized signatory and Head of Acquisition & Project Development Berlin at Becken Development GmbH, and Fabio Carrozza, Managing Director of BF.real estate finance GmbH, at a press conference organized by RUECKERCONSULT in Berlin.

The long-lasting real estate boom of the past twelve years is over - in Hamburg as well as throughout Germany.

Many market participants are unsettled, investors are becoming more risk averse and financiers are acting more cautiously. Nevertheless, the Hamburg office market is in robust shape. Stable prime rents, high take-up and low vacancy rates indicate that the office market in the Hanseatic city remains highly attractive.
