Standard Life Investments Property Income Trust - Asset Management Update
PR Newswire
London, November 19
STANDARD LIFE INVESTMENTS PROPERTY INCOME TRUST LIMITED

LEI: 549300HHFBWZRKC7RW84
Asset Management Update
Standard Life Investments Property Income Trust (SLIPIT) would like to update the market on several asset management initiatives.
Two new leases have been completed. The vacant industrial unit in Dover that represented 2% of portfolio voids has been let to a Government agency on a ten year lease (with tenant break in year 5) securing an annual rent of just over £600,000pa. The new rent is 25% higher than the previous rent on the building. In addition, a letting has been completed on a 5,700sqft suite at Hagley Rd Birmingham, maintaining the rental tone of £20psf.
Two rent reviews have also been completed, the first on a logistics unit in Bristol showing a 12% increase compared to the previous rent, and the second on an office, also in Bristol, securing a 30% increase in rent. Combined, the two give the Company £95,710pa in additional rent.
In the recent NAV statement comment was made about taking legal action to recover arrears from one particular tenant who the manager believed had every ability to pay but had chosen not to, and represented the largest arrear in the Company. Full payment of that debt has now been received. This has the effect of increasing rent recovery over each time period by circa 1% with a receipt of £ 625,850. The rent arrears for this tenant had been provided for in the Company’s provisions.
