IREIT divests office asset in Barcelona for $35.5m

The sale price was 6.1% above the property’s latest valuation.

IREIT Global completed the divestment of Il∙lumina, a freehold office building in Barcelona, Spain, for $35.5m (€24.5m).

The sales consideration was 6.1% above the property’s latest valuation of $33.5m (€23.1m).

“The sales consideration also represents an attractive exit net property income yield of 5.9%,” said the REIT.

IREIT intends to use the net proceeds from the divestments to finance higher-yielding assets and refurbishment of existing assets.

Following the divestment of the Barcelona asset, IREIT expects its portfolio occupancy to increase from 90.4% as at 30 September 2023 to 91.5% on a pro forma basis.

The REIT also expects its weighted average lease (WALE) to increase from 4.9 years to 5.0 years.

Meanwhile, the REIT also shared that it inked a 10-year lease for two floors at Münster Campus, replacing existing tenant Deutsche Telekom, which is leaving in the first quarter of 2024.

Its leases at all B&M properties in France were also extended by 3.8 years on average, adding over $31.9m (€22m) of stable cash flows to the REIT’s portfolio.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
