Investment Rationale
In recent years, the trading resilience of large format retail centres has become well recognised. As a result, investor interest in the sector has continued to grow, underpinned by the presence of established national retailers providing strong lease covenants, relatively long lease expiry profiles and comparatively low rents. The Investment Manager believes the sector will continue to perform well and considers that the acquisition of the Property represents an attractive opportunity for Investors to gain exposure to this asset class.
