Residential

In the light of growing demand for new housing in already high-demand areas, Altarea has decided to develop more properties in order to win further market shares. The Group is currently the second largest residential property developer in France, and its long-term objective is to sell 15,000 units per year.

The residential brands of the group :

Residential

In order to achieve this, the Group is implementing a geographical development strategy with a view to holding strong positions in the most dynamic gateway cities.

The strategy is both multi-brand, and multi-product, to cover all residential pathways (entry level to high-end and serviced residences), and all buyer categories (first-time buyers, investors etc.) as well as meeting the expectations of local authorities (secured prices, social housing etc.).

Business Property

Altarea is now the leader in urban transformation in France. The Group has developed a unique model with which to operate with limited risk on the business property market in a highly significant way, through two complementary activities:

  • property development for external customers (investors and users) and for its own investment projects, using VEFA & BEFA off-plan sales contracts and PDA contracts, and to a lesser extent as a service provider (delegated project management);
  • development of and investment in redevelopment assets with a view to selling them.

Business Property

Business Property must adapt to new uses and employees’ expectations in the area of quality of life in the work place (collaborative work, attractive areas inspired by residential codes). In order to guarantee the value of its project over time, Altarea has decided to prioritise central locations that are hyper-connected and open to the city.

In 2017 it also extended its skills to a new asset class, i.e. logistics platforms.

Retail

Since it was founded, Altarea has positioned itself as a retail developer, buyer and seller by targeting the best-performing formats, which include large popular destination shopping centres, travel retail at stations, retail parks and convenience retail stores as part of large mixed-use projects.

Retail

The Group’s pipeline is therefore broken down into projects for new shopping centres or expansions of existing facilities (including a growing proportion of retail outlets in railway stations), plus retail projects developed as part of large mixed-use projects.

At the end of June 2019, the Group’s portfolio stood at €4.8 billion including transfer duties (€3.2 billion Group share) for 40 assets.

Large mixed-use projects

This market segment has seen high momentum in line with the metropolisation of regions. Its projects cover all asset classes including residential, retail, public facilities, hotels, serviced residences, offices, etc. to create new districts within cities.

Large mixed-use projects

The gathering of populations, businesses and wealth within large metropolitan areas is a complex phenomenon that is recasting regional geography. Their property infrastructure is becoming outdated and needs to be reshaped to meet the challenges of growing population density.

Thanks to its unique real estate skills platform, Altarea has become the French leader in large mixed-use projects. As at 30 June 2019, the Group was managing 11 major mixed-use projects representing potential value of approximately €3.5 billion (covering 920,000 m² and more than 9000 housing units).
