The venture will focus on developing residential properties for sale, with a target land investment of up to 鈧�50m. Neinor will serve as the industrial partner, responsible for overseeing all stages of development, including design, marketing, licensing, financing and construction.

Borja Garc铆a-Egotxeaga, CEO of Neinor Homes, said: 鈥淚 would like to highlight two aspects of this transaction. First, it is another demonstration of the growth potential of our joint-venture platform, through which we enhance returns for our shareholders.
鈥淪econd, I would like to point our capacity to raise foreign capital and the scalability of Neinor Homes鈥� business model as a way to increase housing supply in the Spanish housing market.鈥�
Neinor鈥檚 2023-27 strategic plan allocates 鈧�1bn to new land investments by 2027, with half of this amount expected to come from new strategic partners.
