Posted at 19/11/2024 18:30 by pyufak Since the June factsheet update we've had 141m of asset sales (most north of NAV) against 158m of new purchases. AJ seemed happy with the statement accompanying the rental uplifts so not sure what's not to like. They recycled 2.5% of the portfolio into warehouses in line with their strategy.Honestly, I just think the whole sector is suffering by being crowded out by the tax free return of low coupon gilts for private investors and discounts of other REITS which own a load of rubbish or never became big enough so are unwinding. None the less - I do think this is an excellent long term hold personally. |
Posted at 04/3/2024 21:07 by sleepy Re 188 - I recommend Sky’s REIT posts to everyone (not so sure as to his oils, minerals etc). If you keep your eyes open and are prepared to trade then it is very likely that you will make money which puts him in a very select band of postersSome investors prefer to buy and hold and it seems to me understandable that they would buy a REIT with quality property and quality management at a discount and a reasonable yield |

Posted at 22/10/2023 15:25 by nexusltd @skyship. I too have been adding to LMP, started with 1st tranche in late June & added last week. Accepted the 1 yr chart; lower highs, and lower lows does not look great. So why am I adding?1) I think they have excellent managers; not seen a miss-step. 2) Notwithstanding apparent better value in SREI and API, do you think the investors are more likely to pocket dividend growth from the likes of LMP and SGRO, or from API and SREI? |

Posted at 19/11/2018 12:08 by skinny LondonMetric Property Plc ("LondonMetric") announces that it has sold its retail park in Martlesham Heath, Ipswich, for £22.0 million, reflecting a NIY of 5.2%.The 48,000 sq ft retail park was acquired in 2013 for £10.4 million. LondonMetric has executed a number of asset management initiatives during its ownership, which have helped attract new retailers such as Hobbycraft, Mountain Warehouse, Card Factory, Shoe Zone and Poundland, whilst existing tenant M&S, recently extended its foodhall to 20,000 sq ft on a new 15 year lease. The park is fully let off average rents of £25.70 psf with a weighted average lease term of 12 years to expiry and 10 years to first break. The property has generated a profit on cost of 40% and an ungeared return of 13% pa. The sale is to a long-term investor and reflects a premium to March 2018 book value. Andrew Jones, Chief Executive of LondonMetric, commented: "Whilst demand for physical retail assets continues to polarise rapidly, investor appetite for long and strong income remains healthy. The sale is in line with our strategy of divesting our last remaining operational retail assets upon completion of their business plans. We retain three retail parks within our direct portfolio reflecting 5% of our assets. "Our investments will continue to target high quality opportunities within the logistics and convenience sectors where income certainty is greater and income growth prospects are superior." |

"Today, almost 70% of our portfolio is allocated to the distribution sector with the balance mainly invested in long income and convenience retail; both areas that are benefiting from the changes taking place in consumer shopping habits. Our decision a number of years ago to pivot into these winning sectors was driven by the impact of technology on shopper behaviour. "We were early movers into both these sectors and this is reflected in our strong financial numbers. We have performed across every key financial measure, increasing our income, earnings, profits, dividend and NAV whilst maintaining our strong portfolio metrics. "The desperate search for yield globally is continuing to drive investor demand for income backed real estate. Our approach of patiently collecting and compounding our income remains front and centre of our strategy, and this is exactly what a REIT was designed to do." |

This is having a profound impact on real estate. The tectonic plates in retail are shifting and the industry is experiencing radical disruption driven by these trends. "Retailers are closing marginal stores and investing in 'flagship' destinations and new supply chains to service ever-increasing online sales and consumer expectations. Retailers are prioritising distribution and fulfilment ahead of their stores, which is why we have repositioned LondonMetric's portfolio from retail into logistics. Logistics will soon represent more than 70% of our investments as our urban logistics portfolio grows further and our short cycle developments complete. "In a low interest rate environment, investors are increasingly searching for reliable and repetitive income streams. Compounding our income returns is central to our strategy as we embrace the very purpose of a REIT. Our logistics focus has enhanced our portfolio's income characteristics and we believe that it is these structural calls that will help define the real estate winners." |
Posted at 20/2/2013 15:04 by skyship Irene - "This is one of the best property companies around"How do you define that? What metrics are you looking at? Certainly it is very well managed; but as an investment prospect are you not concerned at paying a premium to the NAV? You do say you are a long term investor; and I grant you over the long term you should do well, assuming they still pay that 7p dividend. To that 6% yield you can surely add 5%+ of capital gain; so the gross yield of 11%pa has its attractions. Personally I prefer a more activist approach, buying perfectly good companies when on much higher discounts and prepared to take quick profits as excessive discounts close - recent plays being APT, CIC, PCTN & SREI. Still hold the first two; and have recently added DSC where George Soros recently followed me in! These and others are discussed on the secondary real estate companies thread - under the epic CP+ |
