CA Immo successfully completes sale of Bartok Haz office building in Budapest
CA Immo has sold the 17,700 sqm office building Bartok Haz in Central Budapest to an institutional investor, which is already the second property sale of CA Immo in Budapest in 2025.

Keegan Viscius, CEO of CA Immo: “Based on market fundamentals and attractive alternative capital allocation options, we have decided to reclassify Hungary to a non-core market in 2023. Following the recent sale of the IP West office property in Budapest, this transaction is a further step in the implementation of our strategic capital rotation programme and towards our exit from the Hungarian market. The proceeds from sale may be used in a number of ways, including general corporate purposes, accretive investment in our prime portfolio, repayment of debt, buyback of shares, and external investment should attractive opportunities arise.”
Hedwig Höfler, Head of Investment Management of CA Immo: “Budapest office investment market is recovering and has already overtaken the transaction volumes of 2024. Especially foreign investors have once again turned their attention to investment opportunities in Hungary. We have successfully closed two transactions this year and are confident, that our quality portfolio will attract further investors.”
The sale is in line with CA Immo's long-term investment strategy, pursuing a clear focus on large, high-quality Class A office properties in prime inner-city locations. As part of this strategy, CA Immo is selling properties that do not correspond to the core business in terms of asset class, location, building quality, age, or value creation potential, continuously optimising the quality and sustainability of the property portfolio.
CERHA HEMPEL Rechtsanwälte and Eston International advised CA Immo on the sale.
As of 30 June 2025, CA Immo's Hungarian portfolio consisted of seven office buildings in Budapest with a total lettable area of around 140,000 sqm and a book value of around €260m. All Hungarian buildings have BREEAM Very Good or LEED Gold sustainability certification.
