2020

In 2020, ADLER Real Estate AG became an integral part of the new Adler Group, together with the former ADO Properties S.A. and Consus Real Estate AG. Adler Group is one of the leading listed residential real estate companies in Europe and can, thanks to its structure, support the entire lifecycle of a property from planning and construction to rental and management.

2020

End of 2019, ADLER signed a business combination agreement with ADO Properties in order to create a common enterprise. For this purpose, ADO Properties submitted a voluntary offer to all ADLER shareholders and on 9 April 2020 announced that nearly 92 percent of ADLER shares had been tendered into the offer. 

The new group shall be named ADLER Real Estate Group. In addition, it is intended to acquire the majority of stakes in Consus Real Estate AG which is active in the development of rental projects.
