Bridgend Industrial Estate

Acquired on behalf of Clerical Medical from the WDA, the estate comprised over 300 acres with 40 acres of development land and over 350,000 sq ft of buildings and is one of the most important industrial estates in South Wales.  Anthony was instrumental in the acquisition of the investment for £10.8 million in 1998.  In 2003 he advised on the selling off of 18 acres of the vacant land for residential development for over £9 million.  In 2004 he negotiated a WEFO grant of £1.5 million and advised on the subsequent speculative development of 65,000 sq ft of new industrial units completed in 2006.  Anthony has provided  Asset Management advice on refurbishment, redevelopment, lease re-gearing and agency matters since acquisition up to the present date during which time the rent roll has nearly doubled to close to £1.9 million pa.
