Redevco acquires Guildford shopping arcade

Redevco has completed its purchase of the White Lion Walk shopping arcade in Guildford, Surrey, on behalf of one of its investors.

The purchase price for the 23-unit arcade, bought from Aviva Investors, was around £12m, thought to represent a yield of around 5.75%.

Its tenants include Next, Card Factory, H Samuel and Starbucks.

Andrew Vaughan, chief executive of Redevco, said: “Redevco plans to modernise the arcade, which is already well-positioned for redevelopment, to make it a more attractive shopping environment and curate a more exciting tenant mix.

“This is in line with our strategy of only investing in areas where we can add value by creating good-quality retail space that serves the needs of the local community.”

Green & Partners and CMS advised Redevco on the transaction.
