29 LONDON ROAD BROMLEY KENT BR1 1DG 5 Office market commentary The Bromley office market in common with other London suburbs has seen marked rental growth due to the impact upon supply of Permitted Development Rights allowing conversion of B1 offices to residential use. Although there is an Article 5 exemption covering this part of London Road, planning consent has been granted for change of use from B1 to residential in respect of numbers 9,11, 27 and 50 London Road. Office vacancy rates are low with only 113,000 sq ft available throughout the town, the majority of which (80,000 sq ft) relates to suites in excess of 3,000 sq ft. Suite sizes at 29 London Rd range from 674 sq ft to 2,924 sq ft. As a consequence of the diminished supply and healthy demand the property has experienced good rental growth over the last 2 years and as space has become available it has been quick to let either to local companies or existing tenants expanding their business within the building.

29 LONDON ROAD BROMLEY KENT BR1 1DG Service Charge All units are let on FRI leases with full service charge recovery including management fees. Total services charges have been 93,000 and 97,000 (2016 and 2017 December year end, respectively). The 2018 budget is 102,000 ( 5.90 sqft) which includes a sinking fund of 10,000. The sinking fund accumulated to December 2017 was been expended on common parts upgrading undertaken in that year. The current charge of 5.90 sq ft is lower than average in the market. Insurance is recovered through separate tenant invoicing. Asset Management Potential There is potential to improve the income by re-letting the vacant unit which is currently undergoing refurbishment and undertaking upcoming rent reviews and lease renewals. We are also of the opinion that there may be potential to further develop the rear of the site and add an extra floor subject to obtaining the necessary consents. Interested parties are advised to make their own enquiries with the Local Authority, London Borough of Bromley. EPC 9 Investment Proposal Our Client is seeking offers in excess of 4.95m Subject to Contract only for the benefit of the freehold interest. A purchase at this level would reflect a net initial yield of 7.15% based on the receivable income of 377,406 p.a. and a reversionary yield of 8.69% in February 2020 upon letting of the vacant unit and completion of rent reviews/ lease renewals assuming an ERV of 458,280, after allowing for purchasers costs of 6.58%. It reflects a Capital Value of 287/Sq Ft.
