Catalyst Capital, the European real estate investment and asset management firm, has sold a multi-let office building, 60 Church Street, in the centre of Birmingham to Topland Group for £16.8 million, reflecting a net initial yield of 6.75%.
The 11-storey multi-let office building, which is located at the corner of Church Street and Cornwall Street in Birmingham, was sold by Catalyst Capital’s second European fund, Catalyst European Property Fund II, which closed in 2016.
It was extensively refurbished by Catalyst at a cost of £2.1 million to provide 63,290 sq ft of office space. It is fully let to range of strong tenants, including The Economist, West Midlands Trains and Succession Wealth Group.
