COF External Revaluations
SYDNEY (Thursday, 14 January 2021) - Centuria Property Funds Limited ( CPFL ), as Responsible Entity of Centuria Office REIT ( ASX: COF ), has completed external valuations on 13 of its 23 investment properties[1] as at 31 December 2020. Approximately 59% of the portfolio[2] was valued independently, with the remainder subject to internal or Director’s valuations.
The completed valuations reflect solid ongoing investment demand for quality office property with the portfolio value generally in-line with the preceding portfolio book value[3,4] , indicating a slight reduction of approximately $17m or 0.8% as at 31 December 2020.
Grant Nichols, COF Fund Manager, commented, “There was an increase in transactional activity in the second half of 2020 with a number of sales demonstrating robust investment demand for quality Australian office property. A number of these transactions occurred in metropolitan markets, with investors attracted to the relative affordability and accessibility these markets can provide to tenants.
“COF continues to provide well positioned, affordable accommodation solutions, which will remain attractive to tenants into the future, along with a staggered lease expiry profile and broad income streams that are underpinned by government, ASX listed and multinational tenant covenants.”
Further details on property valuations will be available in COF’s half year 2021 results to be released on Thursday, 4 February 2021.
