CBRE advises on the sale of a prime Helsinki Airport logistics asset to Deka Immobilien
September 2, 2026
The buyer, Deka Immobilien, has acquired the property for its open-ended real estate fund Deka-ImmobilienEuropa. The seller is an institutional investor.
The property was completed in 2022 and has a total lettable area of 33,000 sq m and 167 parking spaces of which 24 spaces are equipped with EV charging stations. The property is fully let on a long-term basis to one of Finland’s leading 3PL operators, Barona Varastopalvelut Oy.
Aviapolis is Finland's leading logistics hub. It benefits from its position next to Helsinki Airport and its connections to Ring Road III and the national motorway network. Around one third of Finland's population lives within an hour's drive. Numerous Finnish and international logistics and distribution companies operate in the area.
The property has been designed to the highest sustainability standards with a BREEAM Excellent certification, EPC rating of A, geothermal heating and solar PV panels on the roof.
Ilpo Münster, Head of Investment Properties at CBRE Finland, commented on the transaction, stating: "We are extremely pleased to have advised the Seller on this landmark logistics transaction. The deal demonstrates the strong momentum we are experiencing in the Finnish logistics sector, which we expect to remain highly active throughout 2026 — shaping up to be one of the most active years in recent years. We saw significant interest in the opportunity from a diverse range of capital sources, both domestic and international, underpinned by a strong investment case that underscores the clear appetite for Finland's industrial and logistics sector."
Alongside CBRE, Borenius Attorneys acted as the legal advisor of the Seller and Turner & Townsend supported in technical matters for the Seller.
