26 April 2023

Wynnstay is pleased to announce that it has exchanged contracts for the acquisition from Citiclient (CCF) Nominees Limited and Citiclient (CCF) Nominees No 2 Limited, acting on behalf of The Charities Property Fund, of Riverdale Industrial Estate, Vale Road, Tonbridge, Kent TN9 1SS ("the Property") for a cash consideration of GBP2.35 million.

The Property is freehold and comprises five industrial units arranged as two terraces with a central service yard. The estate is fully let to four tenants with a range of lease expiry dates. The current passing rent totals GBP140,350 per annum and is subject to three outstanding upward only rent reviews effective from 29 September 2022 and a pending lease expiry on 30 November 2023. The net initial yield is 5.6 per cent., which it is anticipated should rise to around 6.9 per cent. following a successful conclusion of the outstanding rent reviews and lease negotiations.
