Corum consolidates Ireland portfolio with excess €80m office purchase

We have advised French real estate investment company Corum Eurion on its acquisition of George's Quay House, a prime office development located at the gateway of Dublin's central business district.

Home to Fidelity, WeWork and The Citizens Information Board, the over 100,000 sq. ft building spans across five floors of office accommodation and a basement car park. There are upgrades planned to improve the energy rating of the building in line with Corum's ESG objectives over the coming months.

This acquisition demonstrates their continued strong confidence in the Irish real estate market. Congratulations to all on the Corum team on the addition of this great property to the portfolio."

The quick turnaround of the team and in-depth expertise navigating this high-value and complex transaction was very impressive. We look forward to working again together."
