LONDONMETRIC PROPERTY PLC
GBP18 MILLION ACQUISITION OF TWO WAREHOUSES
LET TO WICKES AND B&Q
LondonMetric Property Plc ("LondonMetric") announces that the Metric Income Plus Limited Partnership ("MIPP"), its joint venture with Universities Superannuation Scheme Ltd ("USS"), has acquired a B&Q warehouse in Hull and a Wickes warehouse in Dartford for a total cost of GBP18.4 million (LondonMetric share: GBP9.2 million), reflecting a blended NIY of 6.8%.
The 71,000 sq ft B&Q store in Hull has been bought from Stobart Group and Roebuck Asset Management for GBP9.4 million, reflecting a NIY of 7.5%. The unit is let at GBP0.75 million p.a. with an unexpired lease term of 12 years.
The 40,000 sq ft Wickes retail warehouse in Dartford has been bought from a private investor. Simultaneous with the purchase, MIPP has granted a new 20 year lease to Wickes at a rent of GBP0.6 million p.a. The total cost of GBP9.0 million reflects a NIY of 6.2%.
MIPP was advised by Knight Frank on both deals and also by Beaton Associates on Dartford. Edgerley Simpson Howe represented Stobart and Roebuck.
Andrew Jones, Chief Executive of LondonMetric, commented:
"These are two strong income producing assets, let off an average lease term of over 15 years, generating an income return on equity in excess of 10%.
"Both assets trade well and these transactions demonstrate our strong occupier relationships to source attractive off-market opportunities, in both the retail and logistics sector."
Graham Burnett, Head of Property at USS, said:
"These are attractive acquisitions by LondonMetric on behalf of MIPP which continues to be a successful joint venture for the scheme and its members."
