Does CH3 also transform existing buildings?

Yes. The Retrofit & Transformation solution is one of CH3's areas of work. A retrofit updates an existing building so that it once again meets the standard the market and its occupants expect, without tearing it down and building again. The work starts from what already exists, updating the infrastructure and opening up new possibilities for occupancy.

What a retrofit covers

CH3 updates corporate and commercial spaces, from the infrastructure to the common areas. This connects what has already been built to the needs of a new cycle of use: new demands for technology, for comfort and for the property's image. In 2024, the company carried out the retrofit of an AAA office building and launched its retail division, with the Pátio Guedala mall among the projects of that phase. The elevator lobby at CENU Torre Norte, a common-area retrofit, illustrates this kind of work.

Why owners retrofit

An outdated property loses competitiveness and tends to sit vacant. A retrofit restores the asset's ability to attract tenants looking for modern infrastructure, a movement known as flight to quality. CH3 treats corporate retrofit as a strategy that turns properties into competitive assets.

Retrofit with BTR3

Modernizing a building takes capital. With BTR3, a retrofit can be paid for in installments over up to 60 months, subject to review, and the owner can use the receivables from the new lease to pay the modernization installments. That way the property is updated without draining its owner's capital.
