Dealmaker: Duncan Willey, PPH Commercial
“The commercial property market in the Lincolnshire area has shown encouraging signs of improvement over the past year, with increased transactional activity recorded throughout all sectors.
“In particular, the industrial sector has performed very strongly and, as a result, occupation levels now exceed 95%. This has put huge pressure on existing stock levels, resulting in prices/rents rising and we are now starting to see speculative development take place, which had previously been very limited over the past decade.
“The region benefits from its accessibility to the Humber Ports of Immingham and Grimsby, which are valuable attributes to employment in the region and the wider area.”
