Aroundtown SA is a Luxembourg-registered real estate investment company specializing in income-generating properties with value-add potential in prime central locations across top-tier European cities, primarily Germany, the Netherlands, and London. Founded in 2004 by Yakir Gabay, it began with acquisitions in Berlin's Mitte and Charlottenburg districts and went public on Euronext in 2015, growing to become one of Europe's largest listed real estate firms by portfolio scale. The company's balanced portfolio, comprising approximately 40% offices, 33% residential via subsidiary Grand City Properties, 21% hotels, and select developments, emphasizes strong fundamentals like CPI-indexed rents, low vacancy, and diversified tenants including government entities.
