In Liverpool, Vabeld UK acquired two more properties on Lord Street adjacent to its current holdings.

The larger unit is leased to Karali, a Burger King Franchise; the smaller one is let to TUI, the travel agent. Having made its first acquisition on Lord Street in 2013, Vabeld UK now owns the north side of Lord Steet from the crossing with South John Street down to  Whitechapel, with the exception of the HSBC unit.

Vabeld UK intends to upgrade the street by investing in the quality of the properties as well as bringing in new tenants. Vabeld UK is working with our local partners, Mason Owen and Ion Development to achieve those goals.

Vabeld has acquired its second property on the prestigious De Keyserlei in Antwerp. It concerns a property on the corner with the Van Ertbornstrat consisting of three commercial floors and nine fully furnished apartments on 5 upper floors. The property was bought from the owner occupier CocoMat. Negotiations for reletting the commercial areas are in full swing.

For De Keyserlei 43, a property acquired last summer, Vabeld recently received the building permit for a very thorough renovation. A lease was signed for the ground floor area with Paul bakeries and 6 apartments will be developed on 4 upper floors.

In addition to the purchase of a few prime locations, Vabeld sold a number of properties in 2016.

Among some smaller sales, these include two units in Nivelles, let to Orchestra and Shoe Discount, three units in Libramont, let to Shoe Discount, Eldi and Home Market and a city center shop in Maasmechelen, let to Ici Paris XL.

These sales are part of an exercise in which some non strategic assets are being sold whilst the acquisition strategy is increasingly focused on some predefined and prime locations with future potential.
