£10 million Fixed Interest Facility

 

Real Estate Investors Plc (AIM: RLE), the London Stock Exchange listed Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) with a portfolio of 1.53 million sq ft of commercial property in the Midlands property market across all sectors, is pleased to announce that it has taken the opportunity to switch its existing variable rate £10.0 million loan facility with Lloyds Bank into a fixed interest rate loan facility with an interest rate of 3.129% per annum until 30 November 2023. The facility with Lloyds Bank is secured against a portfolio of REI's properties. Following completion of the new facility, 77% of the Company's debt is in fixed interest rate form, without increasing the average cost of REI's overall debt which remains at 3.7%.

 

Paul Bassi, CEO, commented: "In line with our stated strategy, we have taken advantage of the low interest environment to fix this facility with Lloyds Bank which has given us increased certainty over our cost of borrowings without raising our overall costs.

 

We are well placed, given our existing cash and banking facilities, to maintain our opportunistic approach to acquiring further criteria compliant assets and we anticipate concluding some of our pipeline acquisitions in the near future."
