ASSET MANAGEMENT INITIATIVES
INVESTMENT MARKET TRANSACTIONS
The current income profile provides the opportunity to renew up to 57% of the income within a 24 month period. Given the under-rented nature of the investment, this will provide the ability to significantly enhance the rent roll in the short term.
Two of the tenants have break options within the next 24 month period providing the purchaser with the opportunity to extend the term certain and add value through removal of these break options.
Unit 4 is unoccupied which provides the purchaser with the opportunity to increase the rental tone through a new letting. This will enhance total income whilst adding value through increasing the overall term certain.
