Our largest February catalogue since 2019, boasts an unusually wide breadth of opportunities, including portfolios from the likes of the London Borough of Bromley and BCP Council.
“We are offering a wide range of lots from an entire retail park and several retail parades to industrial ground rent assets, standalone shops let to Boots and William Hill among others, and a significant range of commercial and mixed-use properties across the country. As the market begins to settle to its new level, we are anticipating another busy year as investors seek to hedge against inflation with income-producing assets.”
