Highlights:

  • Approximately £1.03BN of North West industrial investments were transacted in 2024, broadly in line with the 5 year average (£1.08BN).
  • Demand was strongest for prime assets, particularly multi-lets, and those with short term ‘value add’ opportunities. Weakest for poorer quality assets and ‘dry income’ opportunities.
  • Supply remained restricted throughout 2024 albeit increased toward the end of 2024.
