On behalf of Illuminating Investments, AWS has sold an industrial/office scheme at Photon Park to Adur and Worthing Councils for £15.1 million, representing a net initial yield of 5.75%.

Kevin Surplice, Director at AWS said, “We are pleased to have secured a strong return on Photon Park on behalf of Illuminating investments which built the property in 2017. The Park is well located on one of Yorkshire’s most established industrial estates with a strong covenant making it an attractive investment package.
“Despite economic uncertainty the investment market for prime commercial property remains very robust. Yields remain at historically low levels and the returns we are achieving for clients are currently exceptional.”

Development Director, David Aspland, said, “We are delighted with the outcome. We wish Aston Barclay as tenant every success and congratulate Adur and Worthing Councils for making a sound investment.”
