(Reuters) - Allianz (DE:ALVG) Real Estate said on Wednesday it had invested 7.9 billion Swedish crowns ($870.88 million) in Heimstaden Bostad's portfolio of properties in Sweden that it recently acquired from its rival Akelius Residential Properties.

The agreement will form a joint venture on the 30.4 billion Swedish crown portfolio, which includes 3,377 homes in Malmo and 5,932 homes in Stockholm, the asset manager said in a statement.

Allianz Real Estate, on behalf of insurer Allianz, said the joint venture will be funded with equity, as well as a debt facility from Heimstaden.
