3400 Lakeside, Cheadle.

Manchester-based investment agency Carrick Real Estate has marked its first anniversary with the completion of over £100 million of investment transactions. 70% of the 21 investment transactions were successfully completed off-market.

Over the last 12 months, the niche investment agency has undertaken a range of investment acquisitions and disposals for clients including CDP Marshall, CBRE Global Investors, BMO, LCP, NWTC, Northwood, Orbit, Ribston, Savills IM and Wrather & Co.

Steve Carrick, of Carrick Real Estate, commented: “Since our launch last October, we have been solely focused on our clients and providing them with a boutique service. We have a deep understanding of their requirements and focus on a limited number of investors to avoid any dilution of service. We strongly believe in zero delegation, absolute trust and conflict free advice.

“Looking ahead, we will continue to advise clients through the challenges of Brexit and rise to the challenge of uncovering off-market opportunities.”

  • The £10.3M sale of the Footasylum industrial unit, Stakehill Industrial Estate, Middleton for CBRE Global Investors
