Company

We see a functional property solution as a common interest.  We create long-term and creative solutions for sites where we see special development potential.

Domestic real estate development

HGR Property Partners is a Finnish real estate investment and development company founded in 2005, which owns a wide portfolio of real estate in collaboration with various partners. Our cooperative model is based on HGR taking responsibility for operational activities. We invest in properties located in the Helsinki Metropolitan Area that are centrally located near public transportation and have strong development potential.

Agile value creation

In our projects, we always pursue the common interest of all parties - the city, tenants, users, and investors. The starting point for our operations is the identification and implementation of various development opportunities, flexible and agile operations, and an in-depth understanding of our customers' needs. Through this, we are able to develop first-class and distinctive solutions that bring real added value to our customers and partners.

Distinctive and successful solutions

From idea to investment

Our operations combine industry expertise, large scale, and extensive experience in the real estate industry to deliver creative solutions and fast action. Our operating model is to scout for suitable sites across Helsinki city centre, and in centrally located submarkets of the Helsinki Metropolitan Area, that have strong development potential.

Potential can take many forms; it may be the vacancy rate, changes in building regulations, the possibility of zoning development, a prominent location in an existing high-value urban location, or a site with unique architectural potential or an existing building of architectural significance.

The properties we have developed include many different types of space - mainly office and commercial space, but also public spaces and housing. As a full spectrum organisation, we are responsible for everything from financing, developing, marketing and creating user solutions to seeing the investment project through to realisation.

Real estate development with international investor appeal

We are focused on major real estate and development projects in the Helsinki Metropolitan Area, from which we create international-class investment products. We strive to increase the appeal of the districts and areas in which we work, bringing developments of the highest possible quality to public urban spaces that everyone can enjoy.

Our story

HGR Property Partners was founded in Helsinki in 2005. Our goal was to create a new company in the industry, able to combine expertise in domestic real estate development with the reach of international investors. Shortly after our establishment, the prestigious Euromoney magazine nominated us as the best real estate developer in Finland.

As we have grown, our knowledgeable team and strong long-term partnerships have enabled us to increase the scale and social significance of our projects. In the development of our properties, we invest in environmental responsibility and user comfort by applying for the highest LEED certificates - as well as the new WELL certification, which measures the welfare effects of properties from a human perspective.

In the summer of 2016, we launched the joint venture Regenero Oy in collaboration with Finland’s largest construction company YIT as a means of deepening our long-standing partnership. Regenero's first project was Tietotie 6 in Otaniemi, Espoo.

Company’s operation ended during the summer 2022 while HGR Property Partners, Ilmarinen Mutual Pension Insurance Company and YIT Oyj established a joint venture named Keilaniemen Kiinteistökehitys Strike Ky, with a business concept to develop significant real estate development projects within Keilaniemi area. All HGR’s and YIT’s development projects previously under joint venture Regenero and a part of Ilmarinen’s development projects located in Keilaniemi, have been moved to the new joint venture established 2022.
