About EUR 23 bn was invested in France in the first nine months of 2007, compared to EUR 20 bn in the year-earlier period, property consultant Atisreal said in its latest research report published on Tuesday. Far from weakening, the investment market remained buoyant in Q3 with about EUR 8 bn invested, up 18% on the 2006 figure, the firm said.
Swiss real estate group Investis has boosted its real estate holdings with the CHF 139 mln (€149 mln) purchase of prime residential properties in Vaud canton.
