Our Requirements

Berkshire Holdings target properties which are non-institutional, higher risk/reward, freehold opportunities in Greater London and South of the UK at buy-in prices of £2-25M (in certain circumstances we will go up to £50M and down to £1M).

There is no strict formula but suitable opportunities will be complicated, quirky and need a fair bit of asset management. Find out more by clicking the links below.

We are looking for:

Locations

PLANNING UPLIFT - £2m to £25m

PLANNING UPLIFT DEALS £2-25M

We are keen to acquire freehold sites where we can use our skills and finance to achieve planning for commercial, residential or mixed used schemes. This could involve buying greenfield land or town centre brownfield sites.

Over a 2 to 10 year period we will achieve planning consent to maximise values, as we did at our Abbey Wood project, London SE2, where derelict factory premises and open land were transformed into a 400,000 sq. ft. mixed use scheme.

VALUE ADD - £2m to £25m

VALUE ADD INVESTMENTS OF £2-25M

These can be industrial break ups where we would create small units of 2,000-10,000 sq. ft. (see our Chessington scheme) or investment property which can benefit from “heavy” asset management such as redevelopment, refurbishment or change of use. We are buying into non-institutional property and transforming it into something significantly more valuable.

PENSION REQUIREMENT – £0.5m to £1.5m

PENSION FUND INVESTMENTS OF £500K TO £1.5M

We are keen to acquire small investments which could be industrial, leisure, retail or office use where we believe over the medium to long term we can keep the income flowing and at the end of the lease either re-let or redevelop to a higher value use.
