Suntec Reit makes first UK foray with $766.5m acquisition in London's West End

SINGAPORE - Suntec Real Estate Investment Trust's manager is looking to acquire a half stake in London's Nova development from Canada's pension fund, based on an agreed property value of £430.6 million .

The Nova Building has retail units on the ground floor and 170 residential units. While the proposed acquisition includes the ground lease in relation to the residential units, the 170 residential units are excluded from the transaction. The other half stake in the development will continue to be held by London-listed Land Securities Group , the developer and asset manager of the Nova properties.

The deal is subject to unitholders' approval at an extraordinary general meeting expected to be convened in December 2020. The agreed market value of £430.6 million, based on 50 per cent interest, is at a 1.2 per cent discount to the independent valuation of £436 million including the income guarantee.
