A price of £1,040,000 was agreed to show an initial yield of circa 8% after allowances of costs.
Noel Roper who negotiated the transaction on behalf of the purchaser commented: –
“We were delighted to be able to secure this well let investment at a competitive tender. The building is in excellent condition and although occupying a Town Centre location has the benefit of 28 car parking spaces, a ratio equivalent to out of town offices”.
