The current prime rental tone in the ownership is circa £140 per sq ft Zone A applied to the Deansgate frontage which reduces internally to approximately £30 per sq ft Zone A.The passing rents on the internal arcade units are at a substantial discount to the units with Deansgate frontage.
This compares favourably to other shopping streets in Manchester:
Market Street £300 Zone A
King Street £130 Zone A
St Ann's Square £180 Zone A
Deansgate £140 Zone A
Exchange Street £190 Zone A
Rental Values
It is our opinion that the estimated rental value as of today's date would lie in the region of £1,189,379 pa as detailed in the tenancy schedule.
There are number of asset management initiatives that could be implemented to reprofile the property and increase both rental and capital value. These include the following:
■ Opportunity to improve the retail tenant line-up in the short term on the internal Arcade units and benefit from rental growth. Barber Barber’s move from Unit 3 to Unit 5 provides the opportunity to re-let Unit 3. Terms have been agreed on Unit 3 at a headline Zone A rent of £84.24 and at the same time, terms have been agreed to reflect Unit 2 at a similar tone. Further information is available on request.
■ The 19,073 sq ft of creative office space at Barton Arcade has significant reversionary potential given that the passing rents range from £7.50 - £15per sq ft and rents for creative offices in comparable central Manchester locations are currently between £20 and £27.50 per sq ft.
■ Use upcoming lease events including rent reviews and expiries in the creative office leases to capitalise on the rental growth and improve net operating income.
■ Some of the smaller creative office suites could be reconfigured to create larger, open-plan areas with the potential to drive further rental growth.
■ Consideration could be given to alternative uses on the upper levels including further residential or an Aparthotel subject to planning.
■ The large basement area of over 11,000 sq ft is let on a short- term lease at a below market rent. At expiry this lease could be re-geared on a longer term basis on more attractive terms.
■ Potential to sell off a long leasehold interest in the penthouse flat.

The relocation of BBC from London to Salford accounted for 2,500 new people coming to the City. Media City UK, where the BBC is located, is a £650 million, 36-acre scheme and it is estimated that the development will create up to 15,000 jobs and add approximately £1 billion to the regional economy over 5 years.
A merger of the University of Manchester and UMIST kick-started a £500 million building programme known as “Knowledge Capital” with the aim to become a top 10 university. Manchester has three universities providing one of the largest student populations in Europe with an estimated 100,000 students.
