Dutch REIT will use award winning real estate technology solutions
AMSTERDAM, the Netherlands, December 12, 2017. Vastned has selected Yardi Voyagerâ, the cloud-based real estate solution, to streamline the management of its retail portfolio, which is currently valued at approximately €1.6 billion.
“Vastned is a listed European retail property company focusing on premium shopping venues on the most popular shopping streets of selected European cities,” comments Reinier Walta, CFO of Vastned. “Our tenants are leading international and national retailers so it is important that our technology partner is also leader in the field.”
With € 1.2 billion of core city assets across the Netherlands, France, Belgium, and Spain, Vastned’s strategy focusses on bigger cities with an historical inner-city that offer a unique shopping experience through authenticity. Along core city assets, Vastned has other high-quality properties in the portfolio like Belgian baanwinkels, well-located supermarkets and mixed retail locations in smaller and mid-sized cities.
“The number of retail focused REITs embracing the latest technology for real estate management is growing,” comments Neal Gemassmer, vice president of international for Yardi. “The digitisation of real estate operations, especially in such a data heavy sector, provides the tools to aid strategic decision making, enhance retailer relationships and drive revenue.”
