According to Erste Group analyst Günther Artner the "property values in Western Europe are currently all well above their NAVs, but this wave must spill still on Austria and Central Europe. If interest rates remains so deep for a longer period, also on the Vienna market premiums to the NAV (as at last been reached Buwog) will become common again. "The Deutsche Wohnen got already on the taste - and tries to acquire a majority stake of conwert. The Deutsche Wohnen offers 11.5 euros per share, which is below the NAV of conwert that is specified in the Q3 report with 15.34 EUR. Since then it surprises little that both 3Banken Generali Fund manager Martin Rupp, as well Cube Invest, the company the investor Alexander Proschofsky, consider the total price offered to be too low.
