Standout investment property in Taradale

A fully- leased, multi-tenanted commercial property with massive exposure and a superb tenant covenant is for sale in the affluent Napier suburb of Taradale.

Anchored by Tremain Real Estate on a 10-year lease, the 697sq m property at 2 Puketapu Rd occupies a commanding position on the high-profile, northeast facing corner of Gloucester St - Taradale's main thoroughfare.

The property earns $153,532 in net annual rent from five quality tenants, with a weighted average lease term of more than four years.

Colliers International has been appointed to market the property for sale by deadline private treaty closing at 4pm on Wednesday July 30, unless it is sold earlier.

Broker Dan Walker says it's a standout investment opportunity underpinned by impressive fundamentals.

"This property is the complete package. The high-profile location, multiple income streams, excellent tenant covenant and lease terms are all top-notch.

"Additionally, this is a modern, low-maintenance building, with an A-grade 100 per cent seismic rating and a hint of rental upside."

The strength of the location is evidenced by the presence of an ANZ Bank branch and a McDonald's restaurant on the opposite corners, Walker says.

"Both sites are trumped by 2 Puketapu Rd, which faces north and east and gets all-day natural light," Walker says.

"The property comprises a modern two-storey commercial building on a 417sq m site with Suburban Commercial zoning.

"It is leased to four office tenants and a popular local cafe, giving a split-risk income flow. Several leases are notably under-rented, providing future upside to this passive investment property.

Walker says a tight supply of office space through upper-class Taradale will continue to apply pressure to the market's rental rates.
