Natland Investment Group has again invested significantly in real estate, further strengthening and expanding its portfolio. The group has become a 100% owner of a residential project called Zličín Gate in Prague. The transaction, which was finalized at the beginning of the year, is worth hundreds of millions of crowns. The seller was Invista Real Estate.
Strategic location with high demand
The intended project is naturally linked to the existing buildings and development of the area, located in an already fully functional urban development with quality civic amenities. There is a metro station, shopping centre, bus station and train station within walking distance. The advantage is also the access to the motorway connection to Pilsen and the large Prague ring road and the proximity of the airport.
The project is currently in an advanced stage of preparation. In its final form, it envisages the construction of five buildings in several stages, with a total gross floor area of up to 20,000 m². The result will be hundreds of residential units supplemented by multifunctional spaces and services. The architectural design comes from the Loxia architectural office. The location is one of the actively developing parts of Prague with a long-term stable demand for housing.
“The project represents one of the most significant investments for us in Prague. We are building on the work done on the site by the previous owner and we want to develop it further in close cooperation with the city district so that a full-fledged urban district with quality housing, public spaces and services for residents is created, ” says Tomáš Balvín, Investment Manager, responsible for real estate investments of Natland Group.
Quality construction and sustainable development
Natland plans to apply its long-standing principles to the project, such as an emphasis on quality architecture and urban design with regard to thoughtful public spaces, the use of modern technology in construction and subsequent use, energy efficiency and sustainable living, as well as respect for existing infrastructure without extending the development into the open countryside. “In this case, unlike most of our other projects, it is not a brownfield site, but an organic continuation of the existing development while preserving the green space and respecting the character of the area,” says Karel Týc, Natland Group Partner responsible for Real Estate & Development.
The first phase of construction could start in 2027, subject to obtaining planning permission. “We are pleased to have found an investor who has experience with large-scale residential projects and the ambition to build a project of high quality. We have been working intensively on the project for a long time and we are convinced that in the hands of a new investor its potential will be fully exploited,” said Daniel Aalsvel, founder of Invsita Real Estate.
Part of the Fund’s investment strategy
The Zličín Gate project is part of the Natland Group’s fund structure, which means further positive information for the Group’s co-investors. The Group’s goal is to offer investors the opportunity to participate in a successful investment strategy and the implementation of development projects at various stages, combining the selection of an attractive location, a quality project, with the active and direct participation of the Group’s team in its management. With a view to further increasing the funds’ assets and investment potential, the long-term target is a return of 15% p.a.
The past few months have been very strong for the Group’s real estate projects. For example, the Natland Group acquired a property in the Hostivař district of Prague, which it will completely revitalize and convert into approximately 50 small apartments inspired by the concept of student housing & young professionals’ living. In Slovakia, it invested in the purchase and consolidation of more than 326 hectares of land for mixed or mixed use in western Slovakia or in the acquisition of a commercial property, becoming 100% owner of the Bajkalská Office Centre, an office building offering approximately 11,000 m² of commercial space, including additional space for possible future use, located in the Mlýnská nivy area.
Alongside Private Equity (energy projects) and Financial Services, Real Estate investments are one of the strategic pillars of the Natland Group, which has been involved in real estate development under the Natland Real Estate brand for over ten years. Currently, the investment framework in real estate development is more than four billion crowns and there are more than two thousand apartments in the pipeline.
Natland Investment Group operates primarily in the Czech and Slovak markets. It invests its capital in the strategic segments of Private Equity, Real Estate and Financial Services mainly in medium-sized companies. It manages assets through investment funds. He is an expert in turnaround management of companies in complex situations. Natland was founded in 2002 by Tomáš Raška.
