Investment Summary
• Prominent multi-let industrial estate located within Central Scotland, easily accessible from both Glasgow and Edinburgh
• Situated either side of the recently upgraded M80 Motorway, providing almost immediate access to Junction 6 and the wider UK motorway network
• Established commercial location, home to Cumbernauld Airport and Westway Retail Park, where occupiers include B&Q, Halfords and Currys
• Multi-let industrial estate totalling 829,851 sq ft, comprising 73 units ranging from 1,937 sq ft to 72,944 sq ft, providing occupiers with occupational flexibility
• Let to 53 tenants by way of 60 occupational leases, providing a diverse annual rental income stream totalling £2,531,943 per annum*, equating to a low overall average rent of £3.66 per sq ft, approximately 40% below current prime industrial headline rents within Glasgow
• A weighted average unexpired lease term of 4.04 years to expiry and 2.75 years to break
• High levels of tenant retention with approximately 30% of the income having had a presence on the estate for over 15 years
• Opportunities to add value through asset management, including the letting of vacant units, driving rental tone and selling off units to owner occupiers at pricing premiums to investment value
• Heritable Interest (Scottish equivalent of Freehold)
• We are instructed to seek offers in excess of £24,000,000 (Twenty Four Million Pounds) which equates to a net initial yield of 9.93%, assuming purchaser’s costs of 6.26%, a reversionary yield of 11.93% upon the letting of the currently vacant units at our opinion of ERV and a low capital value of £28.92 per sq ft
*Assuming vendor top up as indicated in the tenancy schedule.
Situation Wardpark Industrial Estate is located approximately 3 miles north east of Cumbernauld town centre and lies immediately adjacent to the M80 trunk road, which separates Wardpark North from Wardpark South. The estate can be accessed from Junction 6.

Glasgow Industrial Occupational Market
Rents & Rental Growth
Prime headline rents in Glasgow currently stand at £6.00 per sq ft, below many of the UK’s other regional industrial markets and therefore providing significant room for future growth. As such Cushman & Wakefield Research anticipate rental growth of 8.3% in Glasgow between now and 2020.
Letting Dynamics & Development
The market is currently experiencing strong levels of activity, particularly for smaller units and as such landlords are increasingly able to dictate letting terms, pushing for longer leases and higher rents. Although we have seen development activity in some UK regions this has not been mirrored in and around the Glasgow area, despite the backdrop of a very buoyant occupational market. Soaring build costs are proving to be a significant inhibitor to development, and with a lack of available new stock occupiers are turning to the good secondary accommodation to satisfy their occupational requirements.
Availability rates continue to decrease and are currently estimated to be below 10%.
Wardpark & Local Occupational MarketHeadline rents within Wardpark Industrial Estate currently average £3.66 per sq ft, having increased from £3.38 per sq ft in 2007 and crucially remain 39% below prime headline rents within the wider Glasgow industrial market.
Passing rents within the estate range from £2.30 to £5.53 per sq ft, with a typical upper rental tone now established at £5.00 per sq ft, which demonstrates the reversionary potential of the asset.
The macro and micro occupational markets in which Wardpark sit therefore strongly underpin and support the asset management initiatives we believe are available to a purchaser.
In addition, we are aware that a tenant has made an offer on their unit equating to £45 per sq ft capital value, demonstrating the potential to maximise returns through owner occupier acquisitions.
Prime UK Headline Industrial Rents
Glasgow Industrial Rental Growth
National Industrial Occupational MarketThe national industrial occupational market continues to be constrained by a lack of good quality accommodation and whilst there is some evidence of increasing speculative development, this has not been witnessed throughout all the UK regions.
Demand significantly outstrips supply in most locations with new units being taken by occupiers quickly. This continued supply and demand imbalance is therefore maintaining upwards pressure on rents and capital values across both the prime and secondary markets. This is evidenced across all of the UK’s regional industrial markets as highlighted below.

UK Multi-let Regional Industrial Investment The market continues to demonstrate robust investor demand for multi-let industrial assets. This is derived from a diverse group of investor types, with many widening their investment criteria and moving up the risk curve due to a lack of prime available stock and the sector’s ability to deliver increasingly attractive returns. The market has been underpinned further by buoyant occupational markets and the diverse and resilient income streams generated by multi-let industrial investments have attracted investors looking to drive rents and value through asset and tenant management initiatives.
Opportunities to acquire large regional multi-let industrial investments are rare, but recent and relevant transactions include:

Asset ManagementWardpark provides a host of asset management opportunities, more particularly:
• Improving the rental income within the estate by:
- Letting the currently vacant units
- Improving the rental tone within the estate, most notably within units let at historic and modest rental levels
- Undertake refurbishment and reconfiguration of units to achieve higher rents
• Pursue ongoing lease re-gear and restructure discussions with tenants to improve Wardpark’s WAULT
• Pursue ongoing discussions with occupiers, taking advantage of the estate’s flexibility to expand their presence on the estate
• Sell off individual units to owner occupiers at a pricing premium to investment value
Prospective purchasers would have the opportunity to continue several ongoing conversations with various tenants with regards to lease re-gears and occupiers looking to expand into vacant units, of which further detail can be provided on request.
VAT & TOGCWardpark is subject to an option to tax and as such VAT will be payable upon the purchase price. However, it is anticipated that the transaction will be treated as the transfer of a going concern (TOGC).
Data RoomFurther information is available within the data room and access can be provided via Cushman & Wakefield or Inglis Howie.
Proposal We are instructed to seek offers in excess of £24,000,000 (Twenty Four Million Pounds) which equates to a net initial yield of 9.93%, assuming purchaser’s costs of 6.26%, a reversionary yield of 11.93% upon the letting of the currently vacant units at our opinion of ERV and a low capital value of £28.92 per sq ft.
Investment Rationale
UK Commercial Real Estate: Investment Safe Haven
Due to recent global, political and economic instabilities and the strong performance of UK commercial real estate against other asset classes, the UK commercial property investment market has continued to be viewed as a safe haven for investment by investors. This is evidenced by the IPD All Property Index return for the 12 months to December 2015 at 13.8%, in stark contrast to the -4.2% returned by the FTSE 100 Index and -24.3% by the Bloomberg Commodity Index.
