ASSET MANAGEMENT
There is potential to secure vacant possession of the second floor above
Card Factory and Foot Locker and change the use to residential subject to
planning consent. A larger residential scheme to extend the first and second
floors at the rear could also be considered, subject to planning consent.

PROPOSAL
We are instructed to seek offers in excess of £3,675,000 (Three Million,
Six Hundred and Seventy Five Thousand Pounds), subject to contract and
exclusive of VAT.

A purchase at this level would reflect a Net Initial Yield of 5.75%, allowing
for purchaser’s costs of 6.51%
