Custodian Property Income REIT plc
(“Custodian Property Income REIT” or the “Company”)
Custodian Property Income REIT sells office unit at 33% premium to
valuation
Custodian Property Income REIT (LSE: CREI), which seeks to deliver a
strong income return by investing in a diversified portfolio of smaller
regional properties across the UK, is pleased to announce the disposal of
a vacant office unit in Solihull for £1.4m, representing a 33% premium to
the 30 June 2024 valuation.
Commenting on the disposal, Richard Shepherd-Cross, Managing Director of
Custodian Capital Limited, said: “This office was acquired in early 2015
and has provided the Company with a stable income stream over the nine
years of ownership, delivering an average yield of circa 7%. Given limited
opportunities for future rental growth and in-line with our strategy, we
felt that now was the right time to sell and crystallise a profit for our
shareholders. The sale demonstrates the continued demand for smaller lot
sized regional assets, particularly from owner occupiers, and we expect to
use the sale proceeds to repay variable rate debt, which will further
reduce our interest costs. It also allows the Company to fund improvements
to the remaining portfolio which aligns with our strategy of providing
shareholders with strong income returns.”
