ERV There is currently a lack of supply of good Grade A office accommodation in the Belfast City Centre market. This is having an upward affect on rental levels and because of this we have seen an increase in rents over the last 6 to 12 months. It is envisaged that this trend will continue and therefore it is our belief that the ERV of Capital House is in the region of 15.00/sqft with further anticipated growth over the next 12 to 24 months. For this reason Capital House must be considered as a highly reversionary prime office investment. VAT The property has been elected for Vat purposes and therefore it is envisaged that the transaction will be treated as a TOGC. PROPOSAL We have been instructed to seek offers in excess of 10,500,000 ( Ten Million, Five Hundred Thousand pounds sterling) exc of vat. A purchase at this level would reflect a net initial yield of 8.5% assuming purchasers costs at 5.8%. CAPITAL ALLOWANCES There will be no Capital Allowances transferred with the sale of the building.
