Nordic manager Genesta buys Danish micro-living platform Mylo from DFI

Nordic real estate investment manager Genesta has acquired Mylo Living, a Danish micro-living platform, from European private equity real estate firm DFI for an undisclosed sum. 

Established by DFI alongside local joint venture partner SF Management in 2022, the platform comprises an operating brand and a fully let 350-unit asset in Copenhagen completed in mid-2024. The asset, which has been managed alongside SFM, is currently fully occupied. 

The transaction represents DFI’s latest exit from the Danish residential sector, following the 2022 sale of its debut platform, Blækhus, to Patrizia for €314 million. 

Established in 2018 alongside SF on behalf of DFI Value-Add Fund I, Blækhus grew into Denmark’s largest purpose-built student accommodation portfolio, comprising 1,186 units across seven assets in Copenhagen and Aarhus.

Besides its micro-living investments, DFI remains active in Danish residential through Komvi, a €500 million single-family rental joint venture with Evervest and anchor investor Grosvenor Diversified Property Investments.
