LondonMetric Property Plc (“LondonMetric”) announces the acquisition of an urban logistics warehouse in Luton from Marcol Industrial Investments for £15.5 million.
The 168,000 sq ft property is located on Luton Enterprise Park, close to Luton town centre and J11A of the M1. It is let to two occupiers with a WAULT of three years. The rent of £0.7 million p.a. equates to a very low £4.20 psf, reflecting a NIY of 4.3% which rises to 5.9% based on ERV.
