Speaking about the deal, Steve Carrick, partner at Carrick Real Estate, commented: “There is a real lack of well let office investments in West Yorkshire and a lot of pent up demand. As such we had strong interest in the investment, which was then further bolstered by the KONE covenant and 11 years term certain. We are currently helping a number of investors across the county to dispose of investment assets,where they have completed their asset management programme and want to crystallise profit.”
