LLB Immo KAG achieves full occupancy of eco-certified housing project in 1030 Vienna

Vienna, 6 October 2020. In these challenging times, LLB Immo Kapitalanlagegesellschaft m.b.H. manages to once again reach full occupancy – this time, in the field of sustainable housing.

Already in 2017, the real estate capital investment company, LLB Immo KAG, acquired two of the ten building structures of the high-volume construction project “Ensemble” implemented in Vienna’s 3rd district for a real estate private-label fund created on behalf of VBV - Vorsorgekasse AG. The properties located directly at the Danube Canal and in close proximity to the Green Prater form a new urban quarter offering housing opportunities and places to unwind. The two buildings acquired by LLB Immo KAG were awarded the “klimaaktiv BRONZE” building standard by the Federal Ministry for Climate Action, Environment, Energy, Mobility, Innovation and Technology which stands for a high level of energy efficiency, ecological quality, comfort and high-quality construction.

The buildings thus perfectly complement the real estate private-label fund which has been awarded the Austrian Ecolabel for sustainable financial products (UZ 49) in early 2020. The two housing projects were implemented in close cooperation with ARE Austrian Real Estate Development GmbH and Premium Bauträger GmbH, and were handed over to LLB Immo KAG at the turn of the year 2019/2020.

Despite the large number of competitors on and surrounding the construction site, as well as the coronavirus pandemic, full occupancy could still be achieved for both buildings as per August 2020.

“Thanks to the great work in the course of the entire realisation process - from the selection of the project to the construction costs - we managed to quickly achieve full occupancy even in these economically challenging times. The extraordinarily well-calculated cost structure not only ensures affordable housing in the heart of Vienna but also meets the expectations of the fund initiator in a more than satisfactory manner”, managing director Michael Schoppe is happy to comment.
