Revision with unchanged content. The intention of this book is to provide an insight in the Pan-European Real Estate Investment scene. In order to point out the special aspects of this topic, the theoretical introduction about the Real Estate market in general and its particularities is supplemented with the analysis of a current Investment vehicle. In this context, the focus lies on the examination of prevailing and future market opportunities and the execution of convenient Investment strategies that are customised on Pan-European markets. Institutional investing has become increasingly important what involves that Real Estate as an asset category has become more and more interesting for prospective investors - whether direct or indirect. In times of increasing internationalisation, the intention of this book is to illustrate the Pan-European relations and collaboration. Accordingly, the book concentrates on Pan-European Investment that became very attractive for investors within the last few years and will have great impact on the future Investment market. In this context, the book deals with a Closed-end Fund which is specialised on Cross-border Investment and Real Estate Externalisation by custom tailored sale-and leaseback transactions. This Fund was chosen due to the current relation to important market developments occurring with this specific outsourcing phenomenon.
