Torony Real Estate Fund was launched in 2013 and is the flagship real estate fund of Gránit Asset Management. The fund’s real estate portfolio consists of high-occupancy, premium “A” category office buildings in Budapest and Belgrade, with a combined rentable area of over 175,000 square metres. All Budapest buildings have received sustainability and green certifications, with the Green House office building being the first in the domestic market to receive the prestigious LEED Platinum certification. The larger part of the portfolio is located in the Serbian capital: the fund manages five office complexes in New Belgrade, comprising 11 “A” category office buildings, in the city’s most rapidly developing district. To enhance returns, the fund utilises leverage, which increases both the potential for profit and the risk compared to high-liquidity retail real estate funds. Investors in the fund can benefit from rental income provided by long-term contracts and the potential appreciation of the properties. The fund can also be used as a diversification tool, as the real estate market typically experiences more moderate impacts from rapid changes in capital markets than other asset classes such as equities and long-term bonds. Investors should be aware that the fund’s series have a T+360 calendar day redemption period, which makes it unsuitable for investors who only want to hold the investment units for a short term.
