Challenge
Vail Williams was appointed by a private investor to dispose of their industrial outdoor storage investment in Croydon. The 1.5-acre site on Beddington Lane, provided a rare investment opportunity in a key logistics hub for South London.
Let to a single occupier and producing a passing rent of £420,800 per annum, the site was well-positioned within an established industrial zone, where demand for open storage is robust.
How we helped
- Understanding the strength and depth of demand in the IOS market, we launched a bespoke marketing campaign.
- Engaged with a carefully selected pool of investors with active mandates in the sector.
- Showcased key selling points including secure income stream, scarcity of freehold yard space in the region and the strategic long-term potential for rental growth or repositioning.
- Our agent’s approach ensured controlled exposure while preserving confidentiality and minimising operational disruption.
“We purchased the site in 2003 as an owner occupier, noting there was always a shortage of freehold yard space. In the lead-up to the decision-making on the sale of the site, Vail Williams’ industrial experts were vocal about the strength of the IOS market, and their advice and dedication in executing the sale was exemplary.”
Mr Needham, Vendor.
