Michael P Landy, president and CEO, says: "We are very pleased to announce the acquisition of this new distribution centre for FedEx Ground. This property is ideally situated near the Roanoke Regional Airport and Interstate 81. Roanoke's economy enjoys an excellent transportation infrastructure and favourable business climate. This increases our portfolio to seventy-four properties, containing 9.3 million square feet of gross leasable area, strategically situated across 26 states."
...Manish Chande, senior partner at Clearbell Capital, says: "In the face of relentless demand for quality new build homes in many parts of the south east, access to funding remains the key sticking point for developers, even for some of the most established and successful firms. This new offering will provide more capital than is ordinarily available to home-builders, allowing stalled projects to get off the ground and stimulate new developments. Figures released last month by the Home Builders Federation showed that there was a 10.5 per cent year-on-year increase in the number of planning approvals for new homes in the UK - 40,633 dwelling permissions were granted in the first quarter of this year, compared with the 36,761 granted in the first quarter of last year. It was the highest quarter one figure recorded for five years, but was still well short of the 55,000 quarterly permissions required on average to meet housing need or the 54,500 that were being granted on average during 2006/07."
Jason Fox (pictured), WP Carey managing director and co-head of global investments, says: "This acquisition represented the opportunity to invest in an attractive real estate asset leased to a credit rated tenant on a long term basis. With an A- rating from A M Best and a BBBpi credit rating from Standard & Poor's, Arbella has a solid financial profile. Combined with the building's convenient location, easy accessibility and upscale amenities, the investment is consistent with our strategy of generating stable cash flow and long term value for our stockholders."
..."Edge recognised the growth potential of this market due to its proximity to the Bakken Shale Formation," says Jeff Walker, a principal at Edge. "The Kirkwood Mall represented an opportunity for us to benefit from that growth while simultaneously owning a high-quality asset." The property is well occupied and has enjoyed strong revenue growth in recent years...
