27 June 2023
Custodian Property Income REIT plc
(“Custodian Property Income REIT” or the “Company”)
Disposal of Retail Property
Custodian Property Income REIT (LSE: CREI), which seeks to deliver an
enhanced income return by investing in a diversified portfolio of smaller,
regional, core/core-plus properties across the UK, is pleased to announce
the disposal of a high street retail unit in Bury St Edmunds at auction
for £0.85m, in line with the 31 March 2023 valuation.
Commenting on the disposal, Richard Shepherd-Cross, Managing Director of
Custodian Capital Limited (the Company’s external fund manager), said:
“Having recently increased the lease term by five years but with rent
decreasing by 8%, we felt this was the right time to sell as we did not
anticipate rents recovering in the medium-term. We will recycle the sale
proceeds into improvements to the remaining portfolio which we believe
better aligns to our strategy of providing shareholders with strong income
returns.”
