There’s four years remaining of the current lease.

“This is not the first time and it certainly won’t be the last time that we see purchaser’s taking advantage of a technology which has proven to be extraordinarily good at showcasing industrial properties,” Mr Jones said.

“In this case the property had several very notable attributes which made a compelling investment case.

“It is a quality, purpose-built facility by highly regarded national builder Vaughan Constructions, with a secure lease to a national tenant, and in one of the most sought after industrial locations in Australia”.
