Global real estate investment company Kennedy Wilson (NYSE:KW) and its partners are on track to grow their UK industrial portfolios to £440 million across 3.8 million sq ft, with deals completed or in solicitors’ hands adding c. £220 million to its industrial assets under management in the last two quarters to March 2021.
Mike Pegler, Head of UK at Kennedy Wilson Europe, said, “We continue to witness exciting investment and asset management opportunities across both core-plus and value-add industrial and urban logistics properties, driven by strong demand-supply dynamics in the sector. Our specialist team has been central in growing our assets under management, buying high quality properties with income and value growth potential.
“Having completed on about £80 million in the last two quarters, we expect to close on almost £140 million in the very near-term. By implementing our asset management programme, we aim for a strong stabilised yield. We look forward to further growing our portfolio in this sector.”
Kennedy Wilson acquired seven UK industrial and urban logistics assets through separate purchases. The assets are fully occupied and include a mix of core-plus and value-add properties with development potential, including:
Brighton Airport Industrial Estate is a multi-let 347,000 sq ft industrial estate in the supply constrained Brighton market in England. It has strong reversionary potential and significant upside potential from 12.5-acre adjoining land with consent for 269,000 sq ft.
Skyline 120 is a fully occupied, multi-let modern, high-specification distribution park of 180,000 sq ft. It is well located in the supply-constrained Essex submarket, east of London, with good connections to Stanstead Airport and the M25 motorway.
Stenhouse Mill Wynd is a multi-let industrial estate of 63,000 sq ft with attractive reversionary potential. It is in a prime location near Edinburgh city centre, benefiting from a significant catchment area and strong submarket fundamentals.
Mill Lane in Croydon, South London is a 2.2-acre site, strategically located adjoining the joint venture’s existing holding and forming part of the Mill Lane Trading Estate.
Link 62 in Normanton, Wakefield is a 63,000 sq ft modern distribution warehouse fully let to Sigma Retail Solutions in a strategically key distribution location.
